g Assume that for a given gene a mutation creates an allele that functions as a dominant negative. The gene codes for a protein
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

At least 50% of the tetramers will be inactive for this individual

Explanation:

A protein resulting from a mutation that is dominant negative will have an detrimental impact on the wild-type protein as well. Especially if the mutated protein can interact with the same substances as the normal, wild-type protein.

For an individual who is heterozygous, there will be one wild-type copy and one mutant copy of the allele present. For each copy, a protein will be expressed and the tetramers from the mutant copy will be defective - so 50% of the protein tetramers will be inactive at least.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains the sugar ribose. ... DNA is a double-stranded molecule, while RNA is a single-stranded molecule. DNA is stable under alkaline conditions, while RNA is not stable. DNA and RNA perform different functions in humans. Like DNA, RNA is made up of nucleotides. ... There are two differences that distinguish DNA from RNA: (a) RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains the slightly different sugar deoxyribose (a type of ribose that lacks one oxygen atom), and (b) RNA has the nucleobase uracil while DNA contains thymine.
