A frame shift mutation will occur.

This the type of gene mutation arises when the normal sequence of codons is disrupted by the insertion or deletion of one or more nucleotides, provided the number of nucleotides is added or removed is not a multiple of three. For instance, if just one nucleotide is added, then all of the codons including and after the mutation will have disrupted reading frame. This can result in the inclusion of many incorrect amino acids into the protein.

Can someone explain to me the difference between motif and domain in protein structure. Is a domain just repeated tertiary struc

dexar [7]

A protein domain is a conserved part of a given protein sequence and (tertiary) structure that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. Each domain forms a compact three-dimensional structure and often can be independently stable and folded.

On the other hand, a motif is a distinctive sequence on a protein or DNA, having a three-dimensional structure that allows binding interactions to occur. Early on, clustering was used to detect common three-dimensional structural motifs in proteins.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

rusak2 [61]

1. The conclusion that can be made about the results of your first cross between a homozygous red bull (RR) and a heterozygous red cow (Rr) is shown below :
You supposed to make a punnet square, so (picture)
Than you will get that the first generation will be 50% homozygous dominant
and 50% heterozygous which lead us to conclusion :
Crossing results in 50% (dominant homozygote) and 50% (dominant heterozygote).

2. Conclusion about the results of your second cross between a heterozygous red bull (Rr) and a heterozygous red cow (Rr) is shown in the second picture. And you can see that in 25% (dominant homozygote), 50% (dominant heterozygote) and 25% (homozygous recessive).

3. Conclusion about the results of your third cross between a homozygous white bull (rr) and a homozygous white cow (rr) are shown in the third picture. In this case you can see the result of 100% (homozygous recessive).
