Small interfering RNA, also known as RNAi, is single-stranded RNA that binds to mRNA with a RNA-induced silencing complex protei

n. According to the model, what is the most likely effect of RNAi on the expression of the mRNA?
Biology

Answer:

The expression of the mRNA decreases.

Explanation:

The RNAi binds to some proteins forming a silencing complex. This complex binds to the target mRNA (of which the RNAi is complementary) and cleaves it (cuts it). The cell will detect the generated fragments of mRNA , recognize they are aberrant and will thus degrade them.

All in all, this mechanism silences (reduces) the expression of the mRNA, because it will be degraded instead of translated into protein.

A Mother who is homozygous for Huntington's disease and a father who is homozygous normal want to have a baby. What genotypes an
natita [175]

Answer: The possible genotype for their child is Hh. All the children will be heterozygous for Huntington (Hh).

The possible phenotype for their child is Huntington disease.

Explanation: If H represents the trait for Huntington and h represents normal trait; and if Huntington trait (H) is dominant over normal trait (h), therefore the genotype of the mother who is homozygous for Huntington disease is HH and the genotype of the man who is homozygous normal is hh.

A cross between the man and woman will produce offsprings who are all heterozygous for Huntington disease Hh. Phenotypically, the offsprings will manifest as Huntington disease.
