Three questions that focuses on the cause and effect relationship between the genetic code and gene expression, mechanisms of gene regulation and/or the role of DNA segments that is not involved in coding the proteins are:
i. Illustrate the process of translation and explain it with the help of a diagram.
ii. What are codons? Name the stop codons in eukaryotes.
iii. What are exons and introns? Explain what happens to the introns during the process of transcription and translation?
Meiosis would be most beneficial to a species in a situation where an organism falls prey to many efficient predators. Answer:a)<span>Meiosis: numerous daughter cells produced would increase the species' population.
</span>The species needs to evolve quickly, and the best way to do that is to shuffle existing mutations through sexual reproduction.
Answer:
The question is incomplete, it lacks the mRNA sequence. The sequence is as follows:
5′−AUGGCAAGAAAA−3′
The answer is Met-Ala-Arg-Lys
Explanation:
Gene expression in living organisms involves the process of transcription and translation. Transcription is the synthesis of a complementary strand of mRNA from a DNA template while translation involves using the transcibed mRNA as a template to synthesize amino acid sequence (proteins).
In the RIBOSOME, where the synthesis of protein occurs, the mRNA nuceleotide sequence is read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON. Each codon specifies a particular amino acid. The collection of all codons is the genetic code. Hence, for a specific mRNA sequence that reads 5′−AUGGCAAGAAAA−3′. The nucleotides will be read three at a time starting with AUG which is a codon that encodes METHIONINE.
Next, GCA is a codon that encodes ALANINE
Next, AGA is a codon that encodes ARGININE
Finally, AAA is a codon that encodes LYSINE.
Hence, the amino acid sequence using the above mRNA sequence, will read: Met-Ala-Arg-Lys
