Answer:
Two
Explanation:
Consider the sequence ATGACATGCAATTGA.
Originally, there are 5 codons, translating to a minimum of 5 amino acids: ATG CAT GTC AAT TGA.
A base was inserted after the first G and the third T was deleted, the sequence become (assuming A is the inserted base);
ATG <em>ACA TGC</em> AAT TGA
<em>Only the second and the the third codon are changed and hence, their respective amino acid.</em>
Answer:
One offspring would have red leaves.
Explanation:
Given
Yellow leaves are dominant and red leaves are recessive
Let us assume that the trait of Yellow color of a leaf be represented by "Y"
and the trait of red color of a leaf be represented by "y"
When two parent of genotype "Yy" are crossed with each other, the following offsprings are produced as shown in the punnet square below
Y y
Y YY Yy
y Yy yy
Total four offpsrings are produced out of which only one has red leave as red color is a recessive trait and it will appear only when both the allele in a cell are of red color.
Thus, one offspring would have red leaves.
The measurements taken by Jay are least likely to contain random errors.
When you increase the number of measurements, the random errors tend to minimize, because errors in one direction cancel with errors in the opposed direction.
Erosion is brought about by the forces of nature or human activity: water, wind, earthquakes, mining, quarrying, etc. In the desert, there is very little water that can cause weathering or erosion, so the most probable answer is wind or maybe even animal activity.
