Which statement about inheritance is true? Girls get most of their traits from their moms; boys get most of their traits from th
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The correct answer is the third statement.

Explanation:

In humans, the males possess one X and one Y chromosome, while the females possess two X chromosomes. Thus, the female always donates X chromosome to the gamete. In any case, the female always generates a similar kind of gamete. While the male either pass X or the Y chromosome to the progeny.  

When the gamete with the X chromosome combines with the female gamete than the offspring would possess XX chromosomes and will be a female. On the other hand, when the gamete comprising the Y chromosome combines with the female gamete than the offspring would possess the XY chromosome and will be a male. Thus, it is the father who determines the gender of the offspring.

A mutation in a polypeptide with the original amino acid sequence of: Met-Ala-Gln-Arg-Glu-Leu results in a mutant with the seque
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

This question lacks options, however, it can be answered based on general understanding of the topic

The answer is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION

Explanation:

A mutation is any change that occurs in the nucleotide sequence of a gene. Mutation can be of different types depending on how it occurs. One type of mutation is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION, which is a mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is replaced by another in the sequence.

Nucleotide bases are read in a group of three called CODON. Each of these codons specify amino acid. Hence, if the nucleotide base sequence is altered during mutation, the amino acid sequence is altered likewise. In this case where the original amino acid sequence is: Met-Ala-Gln-Arg-Glu-Leu, the mutation affected the nucleotide bases coding for Arginine (Arg), hence changing it to Glycine (Gly).

This means that a base substitution mutation occured, replacing the amino acid Arginine with Glycine in the mutated sequence.
