Why would a Nonsense mutation be less damaging if it occurred at the end of the gene rather than the

Nonsense mutations make stop codons. If the mutation is towards the beginning of a gene, then the protein that gets created will be cut short and not function properly. But if it was towards the end, there is still a chance that the protein will still be able to work.

If a germ-line cell from a frog contains 10 picograms of DNA during G1 of interphase, then how many picograms of DNA would be pr
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

10

Explanation:

The cell cycle is composed of three states: interphase, cell division and resting.

The interphase is composed of 3 phases: G1, S and G2 (in this order). During this state the cell prepares itself  for cell division. As part of the preparation the cell duplicates all its genetic material, that is, all its chromosomes. This duplication is done during the phase S.

During the meiotic cell division (composed of meiosis 1 and meiosis 2) a single diploid mother  cell (with duplicated chromosomes) produces four haploid daughter cells. the meiosis 1 produces two haploid cells with duplicated chromosomes, and the meiosis 2 produces 4 haploid cells with normal chromosomes (no duplicated).

If a germ-line cell from a frog contains 10 picograms of DNA during G1, then this cell will have 20 picograms of DNA before the product of the first meiotic division, and will have 10 picograms at the begining of the meiosis 2 (i.e prophase II)

Why is it difficult to observe individual chromosomes with a light microscope during interphase?
asambeis [7]

Answer:

They have uncoiled to form long, thin strands.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are present in cell nucleus and consist of chromatin. Genes are present in linear order on chromosomes.  The chromosomes become visible under the microscope as distinct structures during cell division. When cells are not dividing, the chromosomes decondense to loose their individuality and make the mass of chromatin.  

Chromatin is complex of DNA and packing proteins. As the cells enter the prophase stage of cell division, condensation of chromatin occurs and individual chromosomes become visible under microscope. Before that (during interphase), chromosomes are not visible as they are present in decondensed form.
