Answer:

Centromeric DNA

Explanation:

Genes are responsible for formation of proteins. A codon produces a single amino acid and it comprises of three base pairs. The whole DNA of organism does not contribute to encode protein. There are sequences in DNA that does not contribute in coding known as non-coding DNA and perform different functions. These may include the O O O 5-end, DNA coding for a signal sequence, noncoding intron and O promoter sequence .

The centromere is the part of DNA that links the sister chromatids. The centromere is not converted to mRNA or proteins.  It is also not involved in regulation of genes. So it did not contribute to 864 bp found in the yfg gene.

Se efectúa un experimento en el que a la planta 1 se le suministra CO2 normal pero agua que contiene átomos de oxígeno radiactiv
algol [13]

Answer:

The Oxygen liberated in photosynthesis comes from photolysis of water.

The CHO formed from Calvin Cycle during photosynthesis comes from reduction of CO2 with H+ of photolysis of water.

Therefore,since Plant 1 contains labeled Oxygen(from water) it will give radioactive Oxygen as the byproduct of its photosynthesis. It CHO is normal.

However,Plant 2, will contain radioactive CHO,because its radioactive CO2 will be reduced by H+  from photolysis of water to form radioactive labeled  carbohydrate(CHO)
