Answer:
Can predation result in selection for color patterns in guppies?
Explanation:
Researchers took guppies from their pools that is seen to have pikecichlid fish (a huge guppy predators) and then implanted it in another pools that is seen to have the killifish (they are not really active predators that prey wholly on the childish and immature guppies). They then estimated to see if the color patterns in the grafted or transferred population undergo some alterations in the course of time.
Answer:
d. AAU CCG CAU UGG A
Explanation:
A mutation is any change or alteration to the sequence of a gene. There are, however, different types of mutation depending on how it occurs in the gene. One of these types is INSERTION MUTATION as mentioned in this question. Insertion mutation is a type of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is added to the sequence, hence, changing the reading frame of the original sequence.
In this question, the original mRNA sequence is given as: AAU CCG CAU GGA.
An insertion mutation will cause nucleotide base(s) to be added to this sequence, which will be noticed by an increase in number of bases in the sequence.
The correct answer is: AAU CCG CAU UGG A. In this mutated sequence, nucleotide "U" has been added to the sequence.
