What is the result of a change in DNA?

Biology
2 answers:
eimsori [14]3 years ago

Answer:

The result of a change in DNA is that there will be a mutation of some sort. This could be a nonsense mutation which would not code for anything, it could be a missense mutation that results in the substitution of one amino acid for another in the protein made by a gene, an insertion which changes the number of DNA bases in a gene by adding a piece of DNA and as a result the protein made by the gene may not function properly, a deletion which changes the number of DNA bases by removing a piece of DNA, a duplication which consists of a piece of DNA that is abnormally copied one or more times, or a frameshift mutation which occurs when the addition or loss of DNA bases changes a gene's reading frame. A reading frame consists of groups of 3 bases that each code for one amino acid.

Alice has type A blood and her husband Mark has Type B blood
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

From this information, we know both parents are heterozygous. This means each parent has an O allele to produce a child with type O blood. A and B blood type alleles are dominant to the O allele which allows one to be heterozygous and express A and B blood type but still have an O allele. This makes that Alice's blood type would be AO. Additionally, the father genotype would have to be BO.

The countercurrent multiplier is a system by which the:______.
inn [45]

Answer: Option A.

nephron loop multiplies the concentration of salts in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medulla.

Explanation:

countercurrent multiplier is a system that utilize energy that create osmotic gradients and enable reabsorption of water thereby increase concentration of urine. The countercurrent multiplier uses electrolyte pumps there by making the nephron loop increase the concentration of salts in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medulla because it allows the nephron to reabsorb alot of water and and increase the concentration of urine for excretion while at the same time using as little energy as possible.

In guinea pigs, the allele for black fur(B) is dominant over the allele for
motikmotik

The expected phenotype ratio is 9:3:3:1 for a BbFf x BbFf  cross.

Explanation:

Data given:

Black fur dominant = BB, short fur dominant FF

brown fur recessive = bb, long fur ff

genotype of parents:

BbFf   and BbFf

The cross between these two genotype of parents is shown in the below punnet square:

             BF          Bf              bF         bf

BF   BBFF       BBFf          BbFF      BbFf

Bf    BBFf        BBff            BbFf       Bbff

bF   BbFF       BbFf           bbFF       bbFf

bf     BbFf        Bbff           bbFf        bbff

phenotype ratio:

black fur and short guinea pig = 9

black and long fur = 3

brown and long fur = 3

brown and short fur-1

 The expected phenotypic ratio is 9:3:3:1
