The above answer already provides the background so I’m just going to answer your question. The stop codons aid to end the translation of mRNA sequence to proteins or in other words, terminate translation. When the ribosome reads the stop sequence, no nucleotide will bind and the polypeptide chain synthesized will be released.

Answer:

The sequence of nucleotides, coded in triplets (codons) along the mRNA, that determines the sequence of amino acids in protein synthesis. The DNA sequence of a gene can be used to predict the mRNA sequence, and the genetic code can in turn be used to predict the amino acid sequence.

In rabbits, short hair (S) is dominant over long hair (s). What genotype and phenotype ratios are

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Genotype Phenotype

SS 1/4 Short hair 3/4

Ss 2/4 Short hair 3/4

ss 1/4 Long hair 1/4

Explanation:

The resulting off-spring would have the following genotype and phenotype:

1 out of 4 will have a genotype of SS.

2 out of 4 or half will have a genotype of Ss.

1 out of 4 will have a genotype of ss.

But because short hair is dominant the phenotype ratios would differ because Ss and SS would express short hair, so we add up their ration:

Short hair: 1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4

Long hair: 1/4
