Anna71 [15]
Mainly sons born from mothers to color blind parent(s) would be a trend.

Color blindness usually affects men more than women because the affected X chromosome from their mom is not compensated for with the Y chromosome given to them by their dad. Girls are usually unaffected because the 2 X chromosomes they have overpower the defective gene.

Hope that helps!

A eukaryotic mutation upstream of a particular gene has been identified that changes the sequence of the TATA box to GATA. How w
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Transcription factor binding would be reduced or eliminated, and transcription of the gene would decrease dramatically.

Explanation:

Mutation means the changing of the structure of the gene that results in the variant form which may be transmitted to the subsequent generations.  They are caused by the altering the the single base units in the DNA of the species.

In both eukaryotic as well as prokaryotic, the mutation can affect the diversity in the future generation of the cells.

The eukaryotic mutation of the gene affects the transcription of the gene as the transcription factor binding will be lowered or will be eliminated and the transcription of this gene will decrease.

Describe the pros and cons of the treatments used for each of the sickle cell anemia patients investigated in this activity.
notka56 [123]
Sickle cell anemia is caused by an abnormal hemoglobin in red blood cells. hemoglobin is the red pigment found in red blood cells for carrying oxygen.The abnormality arises from a genetic mutation in the DNA gene that codes for the  beta chain of the protein called globin of which hemoglobin is made of.In the beta chain, the sixth amino acid called glutamine is replaced by another one called valine.<span>This one change in the amino acids cause the hemoglobin protein  to behave abnormally, causing  red blood cells to lose their normal spherical shape and become bent like a sickle, hence the name "sickle cell" anemia</span>
