Answer choices:
- A frame shift mutation in the X chromosome of a cheek cell
- A chromosomal mutation in the Y chromosome of a kidney cell
- A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell
- A substitution mutation in the third chromosome of a uterus cell
Answers:
A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell
Explanation:
Only mutations that affect the germ line are passed on to the next generation. Therefore, only mutations in the egg and sperm of an individual have the potential to affect the next generation.
Mutations in cheek cells, kidney cells, and uterus cells might cause cell death or cancer. This genetic material is not passed on to the next generation, only the egg and sperm contribute this material. Therefore, only mutations here will affect the generation.
Answer:
Peptide bonds and Amino Acids
Explanation:
Primary structure. The primary structure of a protein refers to the sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. The primary structure is held together by peptide bonds that are made during the process of protein biosynthesis.
The first and last sounds most reasonable, but I will go with the last one.
Answer:
1) G C G U A U G (C C C) (U U U) (A A C) (C G C)
2) U U A U G (C G U) (U A G) (G C G) (U U U) (A U U)
3) U A U G (G C U) (U A G) (A A U) (A A C) (C C G) (U A A)
4) U U A U G (C A A) (A G G) (G C G) (U A U) (C U U) (U A G)
5) represent codons which are groupings of 3 consecutive nucletides
Explanation:
Opposites for REGULAR mDNA base pairings are T= A and G = C, however, since it is mRNA, your base pairings change a little. G is still to C BUT Thymine (T) becomes Uracil (U) so A= U instead of A= T. So big difference between mRNA and mDNA is that Thymine changes to Uracil and vice versa depending on how the code is being translated.
