Much important confirmatory evidence on the genetic code has come from assessing changes in the amino acid sequence of mutant pr

oteins after a single base has been changed in the gene that encodes the protein. Which of the listed amino acid replacements would be consistent with the genetic code if the replacements were caused by a single base change? Which cannot be the result of a single-base mutation? Why?
a. Phen Leu (e) llen Leu
b. Lysn Ala (f) Hisn Glu
c. Alan Thr (g) Pron Ser

Answer:

The correct answer is -

A. a, c, g

B. e, b, f & d

Explanation:

Part A- the options a, c, g are the options that show mutation or replacement by a single base change

a) Phenylalanine: UUU UUC

Leucine: UUA UUG

Only one base change

c) Alanine:  GCU  GCC  GCC GCG

   Thr:         ACU ACC ACA ACG

only one base change

g) Prolin:  CCU CCC  CCA  CCG

  Serine: UCU UCC  UCA UCG

Part B:

All other replacements will not be consistent with the Genetic Code if single base substitutions occur in option e, b, f & d

Describe the differences between the sporophyte and gametophyte generations of seedless tracheophyte plants and be sure to discu
kykrilka [37]

Answer and Explanation:

Tracheophyte plants, also known as vascular plants, are those that possess a supportive tissue that can also conduct fluids -The Xileme- and another tissue that conducts nutritious elements produced by photosynthesis -The Phloem-. These plants have a root (basically underground), a stem (aerial), and leaves. All of them together form the corm. And the corm counts with these vascular tissues to which we referred before.  

There are different types of Tracheophyte plants, some of them produce seeds to reproduce and disperse -Spermatophyta-  and some others reproduce and disperse by spores -Pteridophyta-. This last seedless group corresponds to ferns and other similar plants.

Pteridophytes characterizes for having a sporophyte that has stems with leaves and a root. It also has primitive xylem composed by tracheids and phloem, both of them formed by vascular bundles located in a central cylinder.

Spores are its dispersion units and are responsible for colonizing new areas. They also constitute the resistance units under extremely unfavorable conditions.  

Their life cycle is composed of the asexual phase (sporophytic phase) and the sexual phase (gametophytic).  

  • The <u>sporophyte</u>, the dominant asexual generation, it is a perennial and diploid structure. Its aerial part might disappear during unfavorable seasons, but it reappears during spring or summer.  The sporophyte is in charge of asexual reproduction
  • The<u> gametophyte</u>, instead, is and haploid structure, ephemeral and must be in the water for its survival, and for sexual reproduction to be successful. In the presence of water, masculine gametophyte -antherozoids- are released and they swim to the archegonium to meet the ovocell. Antherozoids can swim because they have flagella. After fertilization, a new sporophyte is produced.

The most common phenotype or allele for a gene in a population is referred to as
Tanzania [10]
The most common phenotype or allele for a gene in a population is referred to as the wild-type. The wild type denotes to the phenotype of the classic form of a species as it arises in Mother Nature. In the beginning, the wild type was inattentive as a creation of the standard normal allele at a locus in difference to that created by a non-standard mutant allele.

What is mitosis and how is it drifting then miosis
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells (cell division).  

Meiosis is the process in which a single cell divides twice to form four haploid daughter cells.

I'm not sure what you're trying to ask but here are some simple definitions for mitosis and meiosis.
