Answer:
One amino acid
Explanation:
This question is describing the occurrence of the process of mutation, which is the alteration in the genetic sequence of a gene. In this question, a DNA sequence was given as follows: TAC-ATC-CAT-CAG-TTA-CGC. However, a SUBSTITUTION MUTATION took place in such a way that the thymine base was replaced by a guanine base to have mutated sequence: GAC-ATC-CAT-CAG-TTA-CGC.
Since the mutation is a kind of substitution mutation, only the codon affected by that mutation will change. This DNA sequence will be transcribed into a mRNA sequence. The mRNA will be read codon by codon (a group of hree nucleotides) to produce amino acid. Since one codon will be involved, one amino acid will be affected.
The source of the oxygen released into the air as a product of photosynthesis is C) Water only.
They are variables that cannot be changed or are purposefully not changed in an experiment.
Answer:
B. 25%
Explanation:
Assuming the trait for teeth size is represented by the allele A. large teeth size is dominant and will be represented by A while small teeth size will be represented by a.
Assuming that the population of 1,000 [piranhas are all heterozygotes and they crossbreed with one another:
Aa x Aa = AA, Aa, Aa and aa
The ration of piranhas with large teeth to that of the small teeth is 3:1 or 75:25.
Hence, about 25% of the next generation of the population is ecpected to have small teeth.
The correct option is B.
Sedimentary rocks are formed by cementation and compaction. This happens when sediment particles are compressed and fused together over very long periods of time.
