Answer:

Please find the explanation of transcription and translation below using the key words.

Explanation:

Transcription is the process whereby a gene in a DNA template is used to synthesize a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule in the nucleus of the cell. This process of transcription occurs with the aid of an enzyme called RNA POLYMERASE, which adds the nucleotides complementary to the one it reads in the gene to the growing mRNA strand.

Translation, on the other hand, is the second process of gene expression involving the synthesis of proteins from the mRNA sequence. This process occurs in the RIBOSOME where a group of three nucleotides in the mRNA called CODON is read by another group of complementary nucleotide in the transfer RNA (tRNA) called ANTICODON. The tRNA then carries amino acids corresponding to what is read in the codon to the growing polypeptide chain.

The surviving children would be 66.7% female and 33.3% male. Of the female children, 50% would be expected to be carriers of this gene (like their mother)
| Xg | X
—————-
X | XXg | XX
—————-
Y | XgY | XY

Pretty ugly, but the best punnet square I can do without a link. The offspring with the “g” are those that carry the lethal gene. The male child that carries it will die, but since it is recessive, the female child will live but will be a carrier for this gene. I hope this helps.

Do phospholipids form one layer
nirvana33 [79]
No they form a double layer

Explanation: Because the heads are polar molecules they (form hydrogen) bonds with water molecules found outside the cell and in the cytoplasm and they arrange on the outer layers (the outside of each side) of the cell membrane. In contrast the tails are nonpolar and (cannot form hydrogen bonds) are found in between the polar heads in the middle of the cell membrane. The tails bond to each other.
(Phospholipids form a double layer because heads, water loving, are attracted to the water in the cytoplasm inside the cell and the watery fluids outside the cell. The tails are water repelling and they are between the or in the middle of the heads.)
