Is there usually 24 or 26 ?

There would be 25 chromosomes in the organism's sex cells, also called gametes.

This is because, during sexual reproduction, two gametes unite to form a zygote.  Their chromosomes in this case combine to make 50. (Humans have 46 chromosomes in their body cells and 23 in their gametes.)

In short, the number of chromosomes in the gamete is half the number of chromosomes in the body cells.

Give the sequence of mRNA that would match the following DNA strand
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

mRNA is a complimentary copy of a DNA segment (gene) and consequently can be used to deduce the gene sequence. For converting a sequence from mRNA to the original DNA code, apply the rules of complementary base pairing: Cytosine (C) is replaced with Guanine (G) – and vice versa. Uracil (U) is replaced by Adenine (A).

The codon is the three nucleotide sequence in the mRNA that indicates which amino acid should be incorporated in the growing polypeptide chain. The anticodon is the complementary three nucleotide sequence in the appropriate tRNA.
