What would be the most likely effect on the transcription of the trp structural genes for the mutation scenarios provided? mutat
blagie [28]

Answer:

I've responded to each scenario individually, please see below:

1. mutation that prevents ribosome binding to the mRNA

No transcription occurs

2. 5' UTR mutation that changes region 1 tryptophan codons into alanine codons

Transcription when alanine is low

3. mutation that creates a stop codon in region 1 of mRNA 5' UTR

Transcription occurs, a truncated protein will be made during translation

4. deletions in region 2 of the mRNA 5' UTR

Transcription occurs, region 1 and 2 might get paired together

5. deletions in region 3 of the mRNA 5' UTR

Transcription occurs, region 3 and 4 could combine to form a hairpin loop structure

6. deletions in region 4 of the mRNA 5' UTR

Transcription occurs, region 3 and 4 could combine to form a hairpin loop structure

7. deletion of the string of adenine after region 4 of the mRNA 5' UTR

Transcription occurs, however, it will not be as stable a molecule because of losing its polyA tail

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

Which is the safest area for towing a skier? near the shoreline where others can watch near other skiers or swimmers in the wate
Elan Coil [88]
The answer would be in the middle of the lake away from other skiers or swimmers in the water. 

Given the choices that would be the best answer because it is the safest. When towing a skier, you need to be at a safe distance from hazards like the shoreline, swimmers, boats, and skiers. It is advisable that you distance yourselves at least twice the length of the rope you will use for towing.
