nikklg [1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A germline mutation, or germinal mutation, is any detectable variation within germ cells (cells that, when fully developed, become sperm and ovum). Mutations in these cells are the only mutations that can be passed on to offspring, when either a mutated sperm or oocyte come together to form a zygote.

What do you think the term gene expression means? How do you think the term relates to the total number of genes a human inherit
Gnesinka [82]

The process by through which the instructions that are present in a DNA is transformed into proteins is called gene expression.

The term is related to to the total number of genes that are inherited from the parents in such a way that a gene contains many information related to the building of proteins and hormones that are necessary for the human growth.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The term Gene expression refers to the transfer of the DNA instructions into proteins. It is the main process that helps a human body responding to the varying environment. It is the main factor that controls and regulates the amount proteins production. The steps transcription and translation is involved in the protein production process

The traits from the parents of an individual like blood group type, color of eye are passed to their children. These are passed through genes. These also passes some diseases also. A gene contains information related to the amount of hormones and proteins to be produced which is done by the gene expression.

A gene involved in neural development shows three times as many synonymous site substitutions than nonsynonymous ones. A likely
viva [34]

Answer:

e. is under purifying selection

Explanation:

Purifying selection removes deleterious alleles that can arise through

random mutations

.

Mutations  may or may not have consequences at the level of genetic expression depending on whether those mutations are synonymous or nonsynonymous. Synonymous mutations do not generate changes in the protein to be encoded while non-synonymous ones do.

Important genes for the development of the organism - such as those involved in the  neural development- are very likely to be under purifying selection, eliminating individuals with deleterious alleles since those alleles (product of non-synonymous substitutions) do not allow the individuals to survive.
