How closely do Mendel insights into dominant and recessives traits match up with the ratios that punnett calculated in his Punne
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Perfectly in theory, except there is chance involved

Explanation:

The Punnet square is a diagram that allows scientists to predict the possible outcomes of the offspring when the genotypes of the parents are known. This is in line with Mendel's principles, and from a theoretical point of view would match up perfectly. However, it all works based on <em>probability</em>.

However, inheritance is always down to chance. Of your parents 2 alleles, you always have 50:50 chance of inheriting one of the allele. Overall, this is what is predicted in punnet squares.

However, think about flipping a coin. There is always 50:50 chance of getting heads, but that doesn't mean it is impossible to flip a coin and get tails 10 x in a row. It is just less likely. So in reality, observations might deviate from the theory.

lianna [129]

<u>Answer</u>: B. complex, folded chains of amino acid

Proteins are a class of large organic compounds composed of amino acids in the form of one or more long chains. The amino acid sequence determines the protein's shape and is in turn dictated by the DNA sequence that codes it. Proteins are vital for all the body's functions.

SpyIntel [72]

The sequence has not been given. It has been attached.

Answer:

QPGREDRPLP

Explanation:

A codon consists of a set of three mRNA nucleotides which corresponds to an amino acid. There are 64 codons which code for 20 amino acids (AA). A DNA sequence is first transcribed to mRNA which is then translated to form protein. According to the given sequence, the first 10 amino acids for this particular sequence will be:

GTC = CAG mRNA = Glutamine AA (Q)

GGT = CCA mRNA = Proline AA (P)

CCA = GGU mRNA = Glycine AA (G)

GCA = CGU mRNA = Arginine AA (R)

CTT = GAA mRNA = Glutamic acid AA (E)

CTG = GAC mRNA = Aspartic acid AA (D)

TCT = AGA mRNA = Arginine AA (R)

GGC = CCG mRNA = Proline AA (P)

GAT = CUA mRNA = Leucine AA (L)

GGC = CCG mRNA = Proline AA (P)

Hence, in single letter codes these amino acids will be represented as :
