6. A gene has a base sequence that begins with TAA CTA TGA CGT CG. Answer the following questions using the codon table from question #5.

a) What RNA sequence would be produced during transcription? Hint: In RNA, A pairs with U. (1 point)

b) What are the first four amino acids coded by this sequence? Hint: Look up the amino acids on the codon table. (1 point)

c) The gene has a frameshift mutation, where the fifth base in the sequence is deleted. Write the new DNA base sequence. Hint: Rewrite the sequence without the fifth base. (1 point)

d) What is the new RNA sequence? Hint: In RNA, A pairs with U. (1 point)

e) What are the first three amino acids coded by this new mutated sequence? Hint: Use the codon table. (1 point)

f) How does the correct amino acid sequence compare to the mutated sequence? (1 point)

i think its control and coordinate because im pretty sure thats what tissue does and the joints are what control movement and then your skeletal/ bones provides portection. hope that .

an individual’s sex (i.e., whether they are a male or female) is determined by the sex chromosomes. most people have two sex chromosomes, one that is inherited from their mother and one that is inherited from their father. typically, females have two x chromosomes (xx) and males have one x chromosome and one y chromosome (xy). conditions caused by changes (“mutations”) in genes located on the x chromosome are considered x-linked.

x-linked recessive inheritance

most x-linked conditions are recessive. this means that in a person with two x chromosomes (most females), both copies of a gene (i.e., one on each x chromosome) must have a change or mutation whereas in a person with one x chromosome (most males), only one copy of a gene must have a mutation. a female with a mutation in one copy of a gene on the x chromosome is said to be a “carrier” for an x-linked condition. a male with a mutation in a gene on the x chromosome is typically affected with the condition. because females have two copies of the x chromosome and males have only one x chromosome, x-linked recessive diseases are more common among males than females. however, x-linked recessive diseases can occur in both males and females.

for x-linked recessive disorders, an unaffected carrier mother who has a mutation in a gene on the x chromosome can transmit either the x chromosome with this mutation or a “normal” x chromosome to her children. if the father is unaffected, none of her daughters will be affected and all of her daughters will be unaffected—since they will inherit at least one normal x chromosome from their father. however, each daughter will have a 50% chance of being an unaffected carrier like her mother and a 50% chance of both x chromosomes being normal.
