<span>Some amino acids have multiple different codons that can code for them. So for some point mutations, one wrong nucleotide in a codon may still allow it to code for the same amino acid. For example. Serine has 4 different possible codons which can code for it. UCA, UCC, UCU, and UCG. Note that if the last letter were change in any instance, it would still code for serine. There are MANY other examples for this question; almost all amino acids have more than one codon which can code for it.</span>

Answer: Option C.

Adipose tissues.

Adipose tissues are connective cells that consist of adipocytes or fat cells which store energy inform of fat and also release it into circulation. It serves as insulation to the body.

Adipose tissue stores fat gotten from food and from liver metabolism. They store fat as energy source and under energy stress, they release it into circulation.

A young couple went to see a genetic counselor because each had a sibling affected with cystic fibrosis. (Cystic fibrosis is a r

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

a) The correct answer is 1/2 or 0.5

Cystic fibrosis is a recessive disorder and her sibling has a disease but none of the parents had it. Thus, each of the parents must be the carrier of the disease, that is, both of them must be heterzygous.

So, if we cross Cc x Cc, it results in the genotype ratio of 1 (CC) : 2 (Cc) : 1 (cc)

Thus, 2 out of 4 would be the carrier of the disease.

b) 1/16

The probability of female to the carrier is 1/2

Same is the case with male partner due to the probability that he would be the carrier is 1/2

If both are carrier then, there is only 1/4 chances that the offspring will have the disease (as per cross shown above).

Now, the probability that the offspring will have the disease = product of all the above probabilities. (The probability of occurrence of two independent events is equal to the product of their individual probabilities).

So, $\frac{1}{2}x\frac{1}{2}x\frac{1}{4}$ = $\frac{1}{16}$

c) 1/8

The probability of female to be the carrier is 1/2

The probability male to be the carrier is 1/2

If both are carrier then, there is only 2/4 chances that the offspring will be the carrier of the disease (as per cross shown above).

Now, the probability that the offspring will be the carrier = product of all the above probabilities. (The probability of occurrence of two independent events is equal to the product of their individual probabilities).

$\frac{1}{2}x\frac{1}{2}x\frac{2}{4}$ = $\frac{1}{8}$
