DNA sometimes has chemical groups attached, called methyl groups, that affect gene expression. Suppose that, during each hour, f

irst a fraction m of unmethylated locations on the DNA become methylated, and then a fraction u of methylated locations become unmethylated. Find a recursion for the fraction f of the DNA molecule that is methylated.

Answer:

f = m - u

Explanation:

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification associated with the regulation of gene expression. As such, the analysis of DNA methylation marks and the dynamics of this process may shed light on the genes that are being expressed at a given time in a given cell type/tissue. In the example above described, f is defined as the fraction of the DNA molecule that is methylated after one (1) hour, whose value can be estimated by subtracting u fraction (i.e., fraction of methylated locations that become unmethylated) from m fraction (i.e., fraction of unmethylated locations that become methylated).

In consequence, the equation is

f = m - u

Answer:

0.949367 ≈ 0.95.

Explanation:

The chi square analysis can be done by the formula as follows:

Chi square = (O-E)²/E

Here, O is observed value and E is expected value.

The tall trait follows the Mendel's law, this means the cross between F1 results in the formation of progeny with ratio 3( tall) : 1 (short).

The observed values for set I is  63 tall, 16 short.

The expected value for tall plant =  \frac{3}{4}\times79 = 59.25 .

The expected value for short plant = \frac{1}{4}\times79 = 19.75.

Put these value in the formula for chi square analysis:

For tall plants = ( 63 - 59.25)²/ 59.25= 0.237.

For short plants = (16 - 19.75)²/ 19.75 = 0.712

Total value for set I = 0.237 + 0.712 = 0.95.

Thus, the answer is 0.95.
