Predict the effects of the following types of gene mutations on the protein encoded by that gene (your answer can be just a few
o-na [289]

Answer:

Nonsense mutation: it causes a premature stop codon, so the protein cannot be fully synthesized.

Missense mutation: it causes change on the aminoacid encoded, so it can cause a change in the protein structure if the new aminoacid doesn't have the same chemichal properties as the original.

Synonymous (silent) mutation: it causes no change, the same aminoacid is encoded.

Single nucleotide insertion or deletion: changes the entire structure of the protein because it shifts the reading frame.

Three nucleotide deletion: one aminoacid will no longer be part of the protein, if this aminoacid was located, for example, on the active site of an enzyme, the protein could lose its function.

Chromosomal translocation: it can break a gene in two, causing the protein to no longer be able to be synthesized, or it can change the transcription regulation because it is now under the effect of other regulating sites that result in a different transcription pattern.

By studying genetics, scientists have learned that _______ control how organisms develop.
maxonik [38]

Answer:

C. genes

Explanation:

Genes are basic physical & functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA or we can say that they are segments of DNA which have instructions to synthesize bio molecules known as proteins and these protein molecules are further responsible for characteristics of an organism. Genes are located at a specific location in our chromosomes and the location is known as locus. Almost all the characteristics which an organism has depend upon the kind of information they have in their genes.

During developmental stages, how an organism will develop totally depends upon what kind of proteins are being synthesized at that time and as already explained, protein synthesis totally depends upon type of genes present in the organisms.
