A man and woman are deciding whether to have a child. The genotype of

Biology

Answer:

No, the child cannot inherit the disease.

Explanation:

The problem tells you that the man has a recessive allele for an inherited disease, but he has a normal phenotype. This means that the disease is recessive and in order for an individual to have the disease, they must have two recessive copies of the allele. The problem also tells you that the mother has a genotype that does not include this allele. With this information, you can do a punnet cross of BB (mother) x Bb (carrier father), and end up with the following possible genotypes: BB, Bb, BB, Bb. Therefore the child will not have the disease, but there is a 50% chance that the child will be a carrier for the disease.

Which step in translation initiation is unique to eukaryotes? which step in translation initiation is unique to eukaryotes? bind
Hitman42 [59]
The step in translation initiation that is unique to the eukaryotes is:

<span>formation of the preinitiation complex ribosome assembly
</span>
Here are the processes involved in the Translation Initiation of Eukaryotes

1) 5'cap is used to position the mRNA on the 40S ribosomal subunit
2) ribosome scans down the mRNA looking for an AUG.
3) There is an initiator methionine-tRNA
4) The initiating AUG codon is often within a consensus sequence called the Kozak sequence (5'-ACCAUGG-3')
5) After binding the cap, ribosomes scan down the mRNA until the Kozak sequence is reached and translation begins
<span>6)The poly (A) tail and 5'-cap binding proteins help the initiation complex form
