6. Compare the DNA of an offspring to the DNA of its parents.

Biology

Answer: In DNA the parent duplicates itself through a process known as mitosis. Any offspring is going to have the same exact DNA as the parent. (same characteristics, everything).

Two true-breeding stocks of pea plants are crossed. one parent has red, axial flowers and theother has white, terminal flowers;
xxTIMURxx [149]
This is a typical case of a dihybrid cross. 
From the phenotype of the offspring, we can conclude that the gene for the red color of the flower and the gene for the axial position of the flower are dominant.
Since we know that the ratio of phenotypes in a dihybrid cross of independently inherited alleles is
9(dominant for both traits)
3(dominant for one trait, recessive for the other)
3(dominant for the second trait, recessive for the other)
1(recessive for both traits)
we can expect 3/16 of the f2 generation to be dominamt for one trait and recessive for the other (red, terminal flowers), or to be precise 190 individuals.

Thymine in DNA occurs as the result of thymidylate synthase creating _______, which then undergoes _______ to _______, then to _
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Thymine in DNA occurs as the result of thymidylate synthase creating deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), which then undergoes phosphorylation to deoxythymidine diphosphate (dTDP), then to Deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP), and incorporated into DNA by the DNA polymerase (DNA pol). Thymine in tRNA arises post-transcriptionally, by S-adenosylmethionine-dependent methylation of a uridine 5'-monophosphate (UMP) residue in RNA.

Explanation:

Thymidylate synthase is an enzyme involved in <em>de novo</em> DNA synthesis. This enzyme (thymidylate synthase) catalyzes the transfer of the one-carbon group from 5,10-methylene-tetrahydrofolate (5,10-CH2-THF) to deoxyuridine monophosphate (dUMP) and subsequent methylation to produce deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP), which is then phosphorylated to deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP) by kinases and incorporated into DNA. On the other hand, specific tRNA methylases catalyze the methylation of transference RNA (tRNA) by using S-adenosylmethionine as a methyl donor. Since tRNA methylation is a post-transcriptional modification, this chemical reaction is considered an epitranscriptomic modification on the RNA molecule.

4. A wave traveling at 200 m/sec has a wavelength of 2 meters. What is the
dalvyx [7]

Given that,

The speed of a wave, v = 200 m/s

Wavelength, \lambda=2\ m

We need to find the frequency of this wave. The relation between wavelength, frequency and the speed is given by :

v=f\lambda\\\\f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{200\ m/s}{2\ m}\\\\f=100\ Hz

So, the frequency of this wave is 100 Hz.

Information stored _____ must be translated into functional products.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: Information stored in DNA must be translated into functional products.

Explanation: DNA is a short form of deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA is a type of nucleic acid. There are two types of nucleic acids: DNA and RNA (ribonucleic acid).

DNA is a double-stranded helical molecule that contains the complete information for the synthesis of a functional gene product. The functional gene product is usually a protein.

DNA is first copied into a messenger RNA (mRNA) in a process known as transcription. This process is catalyzed by the enzyme RNA polymerase. This process occurs in the nucleus.

The mRNA leaves the nucleus to the ribosome where it is used to produce a protein. This process is called translation and occurs in the ribosome. The protein is the functional product that expresses its function in the organism.
