Answer:
Copying of DNA to form an mRNA strand
Explanation:
In transcription, DNA is copied to form an mRNA strand with complementary bases.
The DNA strand being copied during the process is called the template strand, and the mRNA that is made will be created from that strand.
This is the first step of protein synthesis.
This strand of mRNA is further used during translation, where it is used to code for amino acids to make proteins.
So, the correct answer is Copying of DNA to form an mRNA strand
Wild Bedbugs become insecticide resistant because of the mutations and natural selections.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>
As the huge amount of pesticides and insecticides are sprayed in the rooms for cleaning, the pests and insects like bedbugs dies in huge portions because of the toxin. But some of the bedbugs remain alive as they have mutations that help them to detoxify the toxins given, or bypass the metabolic processes so that the toxins don't hamper them much.
Now as the population becomes very small(bottle neck effect), the nature selects these organisms over the other to propagate more sufficiently and enormously. As the nutrients and supplies are also available, so the bedbugs don't suffer any lack of nutrition which can be a determining factor of their population.
Thus the wild bedbugs become resistant to insecticides while the experimental one remain succeptible to insecticides.
Answer:
The genotypic frequency = 1:1
The phenotypic frequency = 1:1
Explanation:
Given that:
The allele → R = Red beetles
The allele → B = Blue beetles
Since the gene color shows a codominant allele
The Red Beetle = RR
The blue beetles will be = BB
The heterozygous beetle will be = RB
∴
The punnet square showing the crossing of RB × RR is:
R B
R RR RB
R RR RB
The result shows that we have two red beetles and two heterozygous beetles.
Hence;
The genotypic frequency = 1:1
The phenotypic frequency = 1:1
