A gene
is something that is passed onto you, pretty much like this: My dad had blonde hair and green eyes, and that's what I got. My mom was Brown haired and blue eyes. I got her eyebrows and mouth. Get what im saying? It's something that is passed down to you.

Analyze how a point mutation can affect the overall protein shape and function, using hemoglobin as an example.
aniked [119]

Answer:

A point mutation can be described as a mutation in which changes occur in a single nucleotide. A nucleotide may get changed, deleted or inserted from the sequence of DNA. Point mutations can be harmless or harmful depending on the nucleotide in which the changes occur.

A change in just one nucleotide can result in the formation of wrong amino acid and hence changed or wrong proteins can be formed. If the original protein was involved in cellular reproduction, then the entire process of reproduction can be affected by a point mutation.

Sickle- cell anaemia is a disease in which the body fails to produce enough healthy red blood cells. This disease occurs due to point mutation. Point mutation occurs where glutamine (GAG) of the β-globin gets changed into valine (GUG). This change causes the haemoglobin to get a deformed structure due to which it is not able to carry out oxygen.

In a population of 10,000 individuals, 300 men are afflicted with a recessive, x-linked disease. 18 woman would be expected to be afflicted in this population

both sickle cell disease and cystic fibrosis. dominant X-linked disease. Gene variations on the X chromosome are the root cause of X-linked diseases. A variation in the one copy of the gene present in each cell is what causes the condition in males (who have only one X chromosome).

Red-green color blindness and hemophilia A: Red-green color blindness are two examples of X-linked diseases. Red-green color blindness is simply the inability to distinguish between the many hues of red and green.

Males who are hemizygous (i.e., have only one X chromosome) will fully express an X-linked disease. Females, who have two X chromosomes, on the other hand, will typically be carriers of the abnormality and are hence typically asymptomatic.
