Answer: Option B) determine the sequence of amino acids in a protein

Explanation:

The messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule carries a seqence of bases that is complimentary to the template strand of DNA.

Hence, instead of thymine, uracil nucleotides exists in the mRNA molecule; while the mRNA is transcribed to the corresponding amino acids.

For instance: a template strand of ACC CGG is transcibed as UGG GCC on mRNA, and translated to an amino acid sequence of Tryptophan and Alanine.

PLSS HELP how is gene knockout similar to gene sequencing?
alexdok [17]

Answer:

Gene knockout is a technique used to determine the function of a gene that has already been sequenced, which is achieved by analyzing the phenotype of the individual carrying the knockout mutation(s). Moreover, gene sequencing is a technique used to determine the sequence of a given gene, which allows to determine how gene variants (polymorphisms) may be associated with the phenotypes of the target trait.  

Explanation:

In genetics, gene knockout is a technique used to trigger mutations in a (already) sequenced gene in order to inactive its function and observe the resulting phenotype for a particular trait. This approach that starts with the inactivation of a given gene and ends with the phenotype is known as reverse-genetics. On the other hand, gene sequencing can be defined as the methodologies/techniques/tools used to determine the nucleotide base pair sequence of a particular gene. The gene knockout technique involves knowing a priori the gene sequence in order to obtain a gene knockout (gene KO). The combination of the information obtained from these techniques can be used to determine how variation (genetic variation) affects the expression of a phenotypic trait.

What evidence is there that the o’higgins glacier is being affected by global warming?
Leno4ka [110]
<span>The distinct evidence of climate change in the O’Higgins glacier is proven by the measurement of the area that it covers. About 11.5 kilometers of glacier land has melted within the twentieth century. Satellite images reveal the retreat of glaciers where they compared early 1900s images from the present.
