A segment of dna/chromosome containing the instructions for building a protein which will result in a trait is called a ___
joja [24]

Answer: A segment of dna/chromosome containing the instructions for building a protein which will result in a trait is called a GENE.

Explanation:

CHROMOSOMES are made up of two threads called chromatids joined at a point called the centromere.

In the chemical nature of chromosomes, each is made up of a protein framework which has a long molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) coiled round it. A segment of DNA containing the instructions for building a protein which will result in a trait is called a GENE.

The GENES in the cell of a diploid organism contain all the necessary instructions for building up the organism.These instructions are written on a molecular scale.. Most genes contain information to direct the synthesis of specific proteins. Each such protein takes part in the development of a particular character.

A protein is made up of one or more chains of amino acids known as polypeptides. The sequence of bases in a DNA molecule determines the type of amino acid and the sequence in which they are arranged in a polypeptide chain.

A gene therefore is a sequence of triplets of the four bases which specifies the structure of a protein

Verdadero o falso mediante el genotipo podemos determinar si existen dominancia en una característica
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Verdadero

Explanation:

Sabemos que los caracteres dependen de los genes. Y los genes pueden presentarse en forma de alelos dominantes, o alelos recesivos. La expresión de los alelos recesivos son enmascarados o escondidos por el alelo dominante. Es decir, que si ambos alelos se encuentran juntos en un heterocigota, solo el alelo dominante se expresará.

Entonces el alelo dominante expresa la característica que resulta dominante, mientras que el alelo recesivo expresa la característica recesiva.

Genotipo:

  • Homocigota dominante ----> Expresa caracter dominante (Solo el alelo dominante esta presente)
  • Heterocigota -------------------> Expresa el caracter dominante (Ambos alelos estan presentes, pero el dominante es quien se expresa)
  • Homocigota recesivo --------> Expresa el caracter recesivo (solo alelos recesivos estan presentes)

Por ejemplo, si tenemos dos fenotipos rojo y amarillo, y sabemos que el color esta codificado por un gen dialelico llamado M. También supongamos que no sabemos qué alelo expresa qué color. Teniendo solo estos datos, no podemos decir si el rojo es el color dominante o si el amarillo lo es.

Sin embargo, si tenemos los siguientes genotipos acompañando esta información:

  • MM--> Amarillo
  • Mm--> Amarillo
  • mm --> Rojo

Recién ahora podemos deducir que el caracter dominante es el amarillo.

Ivan

Eukaryotic transcripts (mRNA) have to undergo capping and splicing before it can be translated.

<h3>RNA processing:</h3>

1. An RNA transcript is first produced in a eukaryotic cell as a pre-mRNA, which needs to be converted into a messenger RNA (mRNA).

2. The RNA transcript is given a 5' cap at the start and a 3' poly-A tail at the end.

3. The process of splicing involves cutting out some RNA transcript segments (introns), then joining the remaining segments (exons) back together.

4. Some genes have the ability to alternate splices, which produces various mature mRNA molecules from the same beginning transcript.

The introns not only do not contain the information necessary to construct a protein, but they also need to be cut off in order for the mRNA to create a protein with the correct sequence. An mRNA with extra "junk" in it will be created if the spliceosome fails to remove an intron, and the translation process will result in the production of the incorrect protein.

ira [324]

Answer: NO.Not a MONOPHYLETIC group yet.

This because MYRIMICA one of the decendant of most common ancestors of this group has been left out.Therefore MYRIMICA should be added.
