Which description is true for both DNA and RNA molecules

Biology

GrogVix [38]4 years ago

The correct answer is A.

Both DNA and RNA are types of nucleic acids.  DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid , while RNA stands for ribonucleic acid.

Both DNA and RNA carry genetic information. However,  DNA is chiefly responsible for storing and transferring genetic information whereas RNA acts as a messenger between DNA and ribosomes during the process of protein synthesis and directly codes for amino acids.

DNA is double stranded while RNA is single stranded.

DNA has thymine in its structure but RNA does not. Instead in place of thymine it has uracil.

The karyotype of one species of primate has 48 chromosomes. In a particular female, cell division malfunctions, and she produces
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

E) Either anaphase I or II

Explanation:

Failure of segregation of homologous chromosomes during anaphase I or failure of segregation of sister chromatids during anaphase II leads to the presence of the abnormal number of chromosomes in resultant gametes. In the given example, the egg mother cell with 48 chromosomes (24 pairs) would enter meiosis I but the failure of one pair of homologous chromosomes to segregate from each other followed by normal meiosis II would result in the formation of two gametes with one extra chromosome and two gametes with one less chromosome.

On the other hand, if the nondisjunction occurs at anaphase II of meiosis II, two normal gametes, one gamete with one extra chromosome and one gamete with one less chromosome will be formed. Therefore, nondisjunction at anaphase I or anaphase II would have resulted in the production of eggs with one extra chromosome.
