In drastic reduction, what is being described above is the process called the founder effect. The founder effect is also the other term called in which it applies the definition above. This is made when a population has been created with the means of having small numbers and not too many individuals.
Answer:
The DNA in prokaryotes is contained in a central area of the cell called the nucleoid, which is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane. Many prokaryotes also carry small, circular DNA molecules called plasmids, which are distinct from the chromosomal DNA and can provide genetic advantages in specific environments.
Explanation:
DNA is present within the nucleus of the cells and it is responsible for the production of various proteins and enzymes to keep the cellular activity going on. However, it cannot directly do so and seeks help of the messenger RNA molecules. DNA transcription is a process that involves transfer of the DNA code from the DNA to the mRNA molecule for the production of proteins.
Alright cool... and saw what..?
Answer: The correct answer is B) Frameshift mutation.
The given mRNA sequence is GGU-GCU-CCU-AUU. When a nucleotide is added at the fourth location in the chain, it entirely changes the frame from the insertion of the nucleotide till the end of the gene sequence. This is called a frameshift mutation.
This is because after adding a nucleotide, a new frame is generated that will code for different amino acids and therefore a different protein will be synthesized.
On the contrary, chromosomal mutation is an abnormality in the chromosome ( in terms of number or structure) whereas substitution mutation is the one, which exchanges one base with another. Deletion of base also results in the frame-shift mutation.
