What are the effects of base-pair insertions and deletions?

Biology
1 answer:
Andrej [43]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

DNA is divided into codons which are 3 bases long. Each codon codes for a specific amino acid or signals transcription to stop or start. Inserting or deleting one base pair changes how the DNA is read, so it will often alter the amino acids the DNA sequence produces. As a result, the protein made from the gene may not function properly.

Example:

AAT CGC CGA TGA

Delete the T from the first codon

AAC GCC GAT GA

The entire sequence is read differently ^

What might be some challenges of working in a forensic biology lab?
OleMash [197]

Answer/Explanation:

  • You would have to be very careful of cross-contamination. That means you would have to work very carefully and precisely with protective clothing, ensuring that none of your DNA (from skin or hair or even trace) gets into the sample you are working with
  • You would have to be very careful to check and record samples properly to ensure nothing got mixed up or mislabeled and this could be disastrous for criminal cases
  • All the material is very precious and sometimes only one sample exists, so you have to avoid making any mistakes. Experiments can't always be repeated.

DanielleElmas [232]
This study lacks generalizability.
Generalizability is an academic term and describes the process of extending research findings and observations from a study on a sample population to a larger and more diverse population. The larger the sample population, the easier will be to generalize the results to the wider population. In this example, Dr Kirch used a sampling technique called convenience sampling, which involves the selection of the most available and proximate subjects. However, there is sampling bias since the sampling population is not representative of the entire population and therefore the study can not speak for the entire population.

What will a hypothesis become if supported by repeated expermentation
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Answer: The correct answer is- Theory.

Hypothesis can be described as an assumption or proposition, which is made on the basis of certain evidences without knowing the real truth about it. It is tested further for investigation about the proposed explanation with the help of repeated experiments (using certain protocols).

When it becomes supported by repeated experimentation, it is converted into theory.

Thus, theory is the right answer.
