Answer:

1. Gene

2. DNA

3. Protein

4. mRNA

5. genes

6. alleles

Explanation:

The DNA is known as the genetic material of the organism as it instructs or codes for other molecules of life especially the proteins.

The segment of DNA that codes for the protein is known as genes which are present on the chromosomes in two variants called alleles.

The process of formation of proteins from DNA takes place in two processes: transcription which forms mRNA in the nucleus which gets exported out of the cell to the cytoplasm in order to translate into a protein molecule through the translation process.

A frog that is dominant for its light green color mates with a brown frog and produces one small brown frog. How is this possibl
horsena [70]

Answer:

The dominant (light green) parent was heterozygote for the trait

Explanation:

According to Gregor Mendel in his law of dominance, an allele is said to be DOMINANT if it masks the phenotypic expression of another allele in a gene. The allele being masked is called RECESSIVE allele. In this case of a frog whose allele for light green color is dominant over the allele for brown color, the light green color allele (G) is dominant while the brown color allele (g) is recessive.

However, in a cross between that have light green frog and a brown frog, a small brown frog is produced. This is possible despite the green color being dominant because the genotype of the light green dominant parent is HETEROZYGOUS i.e. it contains both light green (dominant) allele and brown (recessive) allele.

Hence, when a gamete with recessive allele (g) is produced by the heterozygous light green frog (Gg), it mates with a recessive allele from the brown frog (gg) to produce a brown offspring (gg).

Where could the instructions be held to create a protein?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The correct answer is - in DNA molecules.

Explanation:

The instructions or the information for the creation of the protein is held in the DNA molecule inside the nucleus in eukaryotic organisms while present in the cytoplasm in prokaryotes.

The DNA molecule has coded all the information for the particular protein by the two processes transcription and translation. Transcription is the first step which makes a copy of the DNA is complementary in the form of mRNA, The second step involves the decoding mRNA into an amino acid chain with the help of ribosomes.
