Answer:
a) 28 cases
b) 3 cases
Explanation:
a) From the table of genetic codes, there are 28 codons that specify more than one amino acid assuming only the first two nucleotides are considered. In these cases, one cannot outrightly specify the amino acid the genetic codes are coding for without knowing the last nucleotide of the codes. <em>For example, UU can be for Phenylalanine or Leucine, CA can be for Histidine or Glutamine, etc. </em>
b) From the table of genetic codes, the first two nucleotides of Arginine can be either of CG or AG, that of Serine can be either of UC or AG while that Leucine can be either of CU or UU. Only in these <u>3 cases</u> would one fail to know which are the first two nucleotides assuming the name of the amino acids are given.

Answer:
C. It is a male with atleast one dominant allele
Explanation:
In the given pedigree, the two normal parents of the generation I have one daughter with the attached earlobe. Since the trait is recessive, the daughter should be homozygous recessive to express the trait. The genotype of the daughter (shaded circle in generation II) is "aa". To have a daughter with "aa" genotype, both the parents should have one copy of "a" allele. So, the genotype of both parents is "Aa".
In generation II, individual A is non-shaded square. Squares represent males in a pedigree. Since its not shaded, it does not have attached earlobe. Both the parents are heterozygous dominant for attached earlobes (Aa x Aa = 1/4 AA : 1/2 Aa : 1/4 aa). The genotype of this individual may be AA or Aa.
Answer:
- Society: the use of genetic improving techniques may have a positive impact through crop improvement of traits of agronomic importance such as, for example, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses.
- Environment: the development of genetically modified crops conferring resistance to pesticides may have a negative effect on wildlife species (both plants and animals) and humans living in such agroecosystems.
Explanation:
In crops, genetic improvement technologies can be defined as the techniques associated with the development of better crop varieties, i.e., varieties that have higher grain yield, produce more biofuel, higher fiber content, etc. Genetic improvement techniques include, among others, selective breeding and genetically modified organisms. In crops, genetic improvement techniques have the potential to reduce hunger in the world. However, it is important to note that genetic engineering may be associated with the horizontal transference of genes and the development of genetically modified organisms (GMO), which may have harmful effects on wildlife species and humans, thereby GMO crops must be carefully assessed before their release into the field.
If one strand of a DNA molecule has the sequence of bases 5-ATTGCA-3, the mRNA synthesized following the template will be 3-UAACGU-5.
Nucleotides are added to the growing strand one at a time in the precise sequence dictated by the existing template strand. adenine and thymine are always paired with each other in the Watson-Crick DNA model, and cytosine is always paired with guanine.
The nucleotide sequence of DNA serves as a template for the nucleus, where mRNA is synthesised. The RNA polymerase II enzyme is responsible for this reaction's catalysis and needs nucleotide triphosphates as its substrates. Transcription is what happens in the nucleus when DNA is converted into mRNA. The cytoplasmic synthesis of proteins is controlled by the mRNA. The cytoplasm is where the mRNA that is produced in the nucleus attaches to the ribosomes after being transported from the nucleus. The nucleotide sequence of the mRNA serves as a guide for the assembly of proteins on ribosomes. The cytoplasm receives a "message" from the nucleus via mRNA. The nucleotide sequence of the mRNA, which is complementary to the nucleotide sequence of the messenger RNA, encodes the message.

Answer:
Biodiversity is important because it boosts an ecosystems productivity where each species, no matter how small, all have an important role to play.
