Answer: Phosphodiester bond
Explanation:
The backbone of DNA consists of deoxyribose nucleotides linked by phosphodiester bridges.
The 3'-hydroxyl of the adjacent sugar of one deoxyribonucleotide is joined to the 5'-hydroxyl of the adjacent sugar by an internucleotide linkage called a phosphodiester bond.
Thus, phosphodiester bond is the answer
Answer:
The correct answer is: C. third nucleotide position.
Explanation:
- Genes located on the chromosomes encodes for proteins.
- A Gene is made up of a Deoxyribonucleotide (DNA) sequence which is transcribed into the messenger Ribonucleotide (mRNA) sequence by the help of RNA polymerase.
- This mRNA sequence is further translated into the amino acid sequence, that folds to form the functional protein, by the help of the Ribosome.
- The Ribosome reads the mRNA sequence in the form of triplets (three nucleotide together) and each such triplet nucleotide codes for an amino acid.
- Each such triplet nucleotide is known as a Codon.
- The Genetic Code is a table which represents the amino acid encoded by each codon.
- However, the Genetic Code is degenerate in nature. This means that one amino acid can be coded by more than one codon.
- This is because, among the the three nucleotide positions in a codon only the first two determine the specificity of the amino acid while the third nucleotide, also called the wobble nucleotide, is not specific. Presence of any nucleotide in the third position of the codon will not alter the amino acid encoded by the codon.
- In the given question, organisms producing homologous protein have similar amino acid sequence but they vary in the corresponding nucleotide sequence of the gene which codes for the homologous protein.
- This is because at the nucleotide level the variation lies in the wobble nucleotide position that occupies the third position in the codon.
Aminos acids are used to build proteins

Explanation: Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine that occurs most often during the growth spurt just before puberty. While scoliosis can be caused by conditions such as cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, the cause of most scoliosis is unknown.

The arrangement of homeotic genes along chromosomes of vertebrate and invertebrate animals corresponds to the expression pattern of the genes along the anterior-posterior axis of the developing embryo.
<h3>What are homeotic genes?</h3>
- Homeotic genes are a group of body pattern forming genes which control the development along the anterior- posterior axis of the developing embryo.
- These encode transcription factors which control and specify the genes involved in body patterning. These provide identity to the segments during embryo formation.
- Genes located in the 5’ end act on posterior side whereas the genes on 3’ end act on anterior region.
- Homeotic genes are evolutionary conserved and control body specification, patterning and differentiation.
- The loss of function of any of the gene changes the body pattern and affects the development.
