The photos shown below illustrate a case of synpolydactyly, a genetic abnormality characterized by two phenotypes: partially or

completely duplicated fingers or toes, and webbing between fingers or toes. The same mutations that give rise to the human phenotype also give rise to a similar phenotype in mice. In which family of genes do you think these mutations occur?

Answer:

The correct answer is - Hox gene.

Explanation:

Synpolydactyly is a joint presentation of syndactyly is the condition of the partially or completely duplicated fingers or toes and weblike development in between toes and fingers.

This takes place due to the Gene of HOX family that has mutated to rise this condition in the individual. The gene that is responsible for this genetic condition is the mutation in the D13 gene.

The correct answer is - Hox gene

Massive Star

They are typically greater then 8 molar masses. They typically have a quick main sequence phase, a short red supergiant phase and a death of a spectacular Cosmic event: Supernova. From there they can either become Neutron Stars or Black Holes

Medium-Sized Star

They usually have a Normal Main Sequence phase (Billions of years). From there they bevome Red Giants and expell their mass in a planetary nebula. From there they shrink and become white dwarfs first, then black dwarfs.

The role of rRNA in gene expression is to?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is rRNA plays an important role during translation (protein synthesis) of mRNA.

Explanation:

Ribosomal RNA or rRNA are the RNA molecules which build up the site for protein synthesis known as ribosomes.

Ribosome synthesis takes place in nucleolus where two types of rRNA molecules associates with proteins, one in large subunit and one in the small subunit to form ribosomes.

These ribosomes physically moves along an mRNA molecule and catalyze the assembly of amino acids where rRNA molecules performs the catalytic steps of protein synthesis that is stitches amino acids together and makes up proteins.

Thus,  rRNA plays an important role during translation (protein synthesis) of mRNA.
