Which chromosomal defect is caused when part of a chromosome breaks off and reattaches backward on the same chromosome?
Y_Kistochka [10]
Deletion is when a part of the chromosome is deleted. (Removed)
Insertion is when part of our chromosome has an extra bit added to it.
Translocation Is when one part of the chromosome is moved to another chromosome.

The correct answer is inversion, to invert means to turn upside down. So when part of the chromosome is taken off but attached backwards (turned upside down) we call it inversion

Hope that makes sense

For a particular species of wolf, 55% are female, 20% hunt in medium-sized packs, and 15% are both female and hunt in medium-siz
lorasvet [3.4K]
*Given
Percent of the wolves which are female - 55%
Percent of the wolves which hunt 
     in medium-sized packs                      - 20%
Percent of the wolves which are both
     female and hunt in medium-sized
     packs                                                  - 15%


*Solution

<u>Assuming that there is a total of one hundred wolves in the species, </u>

1. Since percent (%) means "per 100" or "for every 100" then, 

a. The number of female wolves is

    (55 female wolves / 100 wolves) * 100 wolves total = 55 female wolves

b. The number of wolves that hunt in medium-sized packs is

    (20 wolves / 100 wolves) * 100 wolves total = 20 wolves

    Note that the 20 wolves is a mixture of male and female wolves. 

c. The number of female wolves that hunt in medium-sized packs is

    (15 female wolves / 100 wolves) * 100 wolves total = 15 female wolves

2. Because there is a total of 55 female wolves in the species, and 15 of these wolves hunt in medium-sized packs, then the number of female wolves that do not hunt in medium-sized packs is, 
 
    55 female wolves total - 15 female wolves hunting  = 40 female wolves not
                                                in medium-sized packs         hunting in medium
                                                                                              sized packs

3. To find the proportion, we can express the answer in terms of percent (%) or in fraction, which is usually how proportions are expressed. 

For every 100 wolves, there are 40 female wolves that do not hunt in medium-sized packs. This can be expressed as a proportion of 
 
                                       <span> <u> 40  </u>
</span>                                        100

and simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 10, we get,

                                     <span><u> 40/10  </u>
</span>                                     100/10

                                       <span><u>  4   </u>
</span>                                        10

When this is expressed in percent, we multiply the fraction or proportion by 100% to get, 

                                       <span><u>  4   </u>   x    100%     = 40%
</span>                                        10

Thus, the proportion of female wolves that do not hunt in medium sized packs is 4/10 or 0.4. When expressed as percent, this is 40%.

A universal genetic code allows for which of the following?
katrin2010 [14]
A universal genetic code allows "the processes of transcription and translation to produce the same proteins in all species."
To say that the genetic code is universal it means that it is read/interpreted in the same exact way in all cells. This is that the same group of three nucleotides, a codon, will always translate into the same amino acid in any cell leading to the formation of the same protein, or at least a protein with same amino acids when first formed.
