A student analyzed ears of corn that demonstrated two traits in the F2 kernels, purple or white colors and smooth or wrinkled sh

apes. A tabulation of 135 individual kernels gave the following results:
purple and smooth = 75
white and smooth = 28
purple and wrinkled = 24
white and wrinkled = 8

I assume the question asks for the number of phenotypes present.

The phenotype is the set of visible characteristics of an individual resulting from the interaction of its genotype. In this case, the number of phenotype is the total number of combinations of the characteristic purple or white and wrinkled or smooth:

<span>purple and smooth
white and smooth
purple and wrinkled
white and wrinkled</span>

<span>So basically there are 4 phenotypes.       (ANSWER)</span>

Using recombinant DNA techniques, you have replaced the trp operon's leader peptide open reading frame in Escherichia coli with
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Decreased transcription of structural genes of try operon irrespective of presence or absence of tryptophan. The leader sequence has a tryptophan codon in its sequence 1 that does not allow the formation of attenuator structure when tryptophan levels are low.

Explanation:

The leader peptide has a tryptophan codon in sequence 1. When tryptophan levels are low, translation of sequence 1 pauses at the tryptophan codon and the sequences 2 and 3 pair with each other. This does not allow pairing of sequences 3 and 4 and the formation of the attenuator is inhibited. Therefore, tryptophan operon is expressed when tryptophan levels are low.

When the leader peptide sequence is replaced with the one from phenylalanine operon, expression of tryptophan operon will be reduced. The replaced sequence lacks a tryptophan codon and therefore, the translation would not pause when the tryptophan levels are low. This would allow the ribosome to quickly translate the sequence 2. Sequences 3 and 4 will pair to form attenuator and the gene expression will be reduced irrespective of low levels of tryptophan.

Gene mutations can be caused by many things. These mutations are biologically important because they
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Can result in a new variety of gene combinations in the species

Explanation:

The third option is blatantly untrue- gene mutations are sometimes harmful, usually mundane and do nothing, and sometimes extremely helpful.

The fourth option is also untrue- genetic mutation is completely random.

This leaves us with the first two-

The first option is true, but it's not why genetic mutations are important, it's simply how they are passed on.

The second option is the awnser because gene diversity is extremely important in populations, and 'variety of gene combinations' is just another way to say gene diversity.
