7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The number of double stranded DNA pieces is doubled in each cycle, so that after n cycles you have 2^n (2 to the n:th power) copies of DNA. For example, after 10 cycles you have 1024 copies, after 20 cycles you have about one million copies, etc.

taurus [48]

Answer:

<em>make a gene from the given mRNA without the introns.</em>

Explanation:

Introns can be described as the non- coding regions of DNA. As they are non- coding, they are spliced out from the mRNA so that only the coding regions can be translated.

If we know a nucleotide sequence, then we can make a gene from it without added the introns. We can consider an mRNA strand and make a complementary strand from it, excluding the intron regions. Then from the DNA produced, we can make an mRNA without the introns and insert it into a bacterium.

Luda [366]

Answer:

substitution, missense mutation, and transition

Explanation:

A mutation is any change in the genetic information of an organism. A substitution is a point mutation by which a single nucleotide base pair is replaced by a different nucleotide. Moreover, a missense mutation is a point mutation that results in the incorporation of a different amino acid in the polypeptide chain since this mutation generates a new codon which codes for a different amino acid. Finally, a transition is a point mutation where a purine (either Adenine or Guanine) is changed to another purine, or a pyrimidine (either Thymine or Cytosine) is changed to another pyrimidine (in this case, Cytosine is changed to Thymine).
