Answer:

Methionine, arginine, serine, glycine

Explanation:

Use a codon chart (attached below) to determine what amino acids are coded for by the strand of mRNA. Remember that codons are groups of three nucleotides in mRNA. So, read the nucleotides in groups of three (just as how they are separated by spaces) and from left to right.

To use this codon chart, identify the first letter representing the first nucleotide in the codon. Then, find the matching letter that's one of the four biggest letters in the middle of the chart. Identify the second letter, then find the matching medium letter in the chart, staying within the section of the first letter as indicated by the lines, and do the same process with the third. Repeat for each codon.

Thus, with this mRNA strand, the amino acids will be methionine, arginine, serine, glycine.

Answer:

Crossing over ensures that organisms of the same parents have differences in genetic content making them unique in one way or the other.

Explanation:

This question is describing the process of crossing over, which occurs only during prophase I of meiosis. During the process of crossing over, alleles of a gene are exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes (mother and father chromosomes).

Hence, a unique GAMETE that has been genetically recombined will be formed. When these gametes are fertilized (egg) or fertilizes (sperm), organisms that are genetically different from their parents are produced. This ensures genetic variation, which is a difference in the genetic content of organisms.

garik1379 [7]

A man with hemophilia (a sex-linked recessive condition) has a daughter without hemophilia, the probability of their children having hemophilia is 50%, out of 4 children probably 2 will have hemophilia and 2 will not have hemophilia.

<h3>What is recessive and dominant?</h3>

The dominant term is related to the genetic transmission of a trait and is represented, in biology, by a capital letter (A, B or V). While recessive, represented by a lowercase letter (a, b or v), they represent genetic traits transmitted only in the absence of the dominant gene.

With this information, we can conclude that Recessive genes produce proteins considered “defective” as they become inactive. That is, they are hidden (recessive) with the presence of a dominant gene manifesting their characteristics in the absence of their dominant allele.
