A DNA sequence that is 15 nucleotides long would normally give rise to a polypeptide sequence that would be 5 amino acids long. This is assuming that all the nucleotides in the DNA sequences are strictly coded to form only sense codons and not a single nonsense codon, also called termination codon
A sense codon is a set of three nucleotides also called a triplet, that codes for a particular amino acid. A DNA sequence of 15 nucleotides has 5 codons.
A nonsense or termination codon is one that does not code for any amino acid. There are three nonsense codons found on mRNA, and these are UAA, UAG and UGA. So if the DNA sequence has one of these, then the amino acids in the polypeptide chain will be 4 in number
The radiologic
skeletal survey is most useful tool for detecting occult trauma fractures in children
younger than 2 years old. A current policy states that skeletal survey is
mandatory in all cases of suspected child abuse because younger
children are easier to lift, shake, throw, pull and fall. Moreover, occult fractures can be detected by bone scan
though; bone scan is not specific for fracture but still most useful in
detecting occult rib fractures.
Probability: The chance of something happening and the likelihood of a particular event happening.
Small bone fractures that develop in response to repetitive, cumulative trauma are known as stress fractures. These are fractures where bones are injured by overuse, they are commonly found in the spine, vertebrae, leg bones, feet, and the pelvis. They result from the accumulated trauma from repeated submaximal loading, such as running or jumping
