Answer: DF508 mutation. A Genetic, Hereditary, Autosomal and Recessive Mutation.
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a recessive autosomal lethal disease, it is most common on Caucasoid populations. Its diagnosis is suggested by the clinical features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, persistent pulmonary colonization (particularly with mucoid Pseudomonas strains), meconium ileus, pancreatic insufficiency with or familiarity history of the disease. The FC gene is large, with about 250 Kb of genomic DNA, 27 exons representing about 5% of genomic DNA; encodes a 6.5 kb transcribed mRNA. This mRNA is transcribed into a protein of 1480 amino acid called CFTR (Regulator Transmembrane Conductance Cystic Fibrosis). When a three-base pair deletion, adenosine-thymine-thymine (ATT) identified in the CFTR gene, exon 10, it results in the loss of a single amino acid phenylalanine at position 508 of the protein. This mutation is called DF508; “D” stands for deletion and “F” for phenylalanine amino acid.

Answer:
5’ – TAC-GCA-CTG-3’
Explanation:
As per the Chargaff’s complementary base pairing rule purine always pairs with a pyrimidine.
Purines include adenine (A) and cytosine (C)
Pyrimidine include thymine (T) and guanine (G)
Thus an A always pair with T and C always pair with G
Thus, the resulting poly peptide for the given amino acid sequence is
3'-ATG-CGT-GAC-5'
5’ – TAC-GCA-CTG-3’

Answer:
The true statement is: "Spring tides are the highest, while neap tides are the lowest."
Explanation:
- The range of difference in the level of water between high and low tide is always larger in spring tide.
- Neap tides are the moderate tides. It does not have huge difference in higher and low tides because the bulging of the ocean ( by the sun) balances the bulge of the ocean caused by the moon.
- This balance is not found in spring tides that is the main reason for spring tides to have the highest level for both higher and lower tides.
