Imagine you are studying a population of plants and you have determined that they are all genetic clones of one another. You are

interested in a particular gene found in the population that you have named LLT (low-light tolerance), that allows it to live in shady areas.
What is the frequency of this allele in the population you study?

Answer:

The frequency of the allele is  high in  the  population

Explanation:

The selective pressure in this population is low light. <u>Thus only plants with high tolerance for low light will be able to survive in this population. LLT gene plant has this trait</u>.

Therefore the LLT gene plants  will have  higher rate of survival compare  to other clones at very low light intensity .

The frequency of expression of these gene will be high due to high survival rates in the population.

galben [10]

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Protein building begins on the DNA strand. Usually, the DNA contains genetic information which flows from nucleic acids to proteins in a series of steps:

1) Replication: this is the first step. It involves the copying of parental DNA into daughter copies.

2) Transcription: this is the second step. Here, parts of the coded genetic message in DNA are copied precisely in the form of RNA - in the form of messenger RNA (mRNA).

3) Translation: this is the third step. Here, genetic message coded in mRNA is translated, on the ribosomes, into a protein with a specific sequence of amino acids.

Simply put, DNA makes RNA, and RNA makes protein.

topjm [15]

Answer:

The options are

A. both homzygous dominant

B. both homzygous recessive

C. both heterozygous

D. one homzygous dominant, one homzygous recessive

The answer is C. both heterozygous

Since it’s in the ratio of 1:2:1 the genotype will be Rr and Rr.

Explain how Chromosomes are like a ball of yarn (use the words chromosome, DNA, and gene in your answer)
arlik [135]

Answer:

Chromosomes are like a ball of yarn in the sense that there are multiple components that make up the structure. Genes can be in similitude of the smallest threads in the yarn and when a multitude of genes are put together they make a DNA strand or a long, thick thread of yarn. Lastly, when DNA is twisted together, it becomes bundled together, making a chromosome or a "ball of yarn".
