Which of the following is not a true statement regarding the genetic code?
A. The genetic code is nearly universal, with only a few minor exceptions.
B. The genetic code is nonoverlapping.
C. The genetic code is degenerate.
D. The genetic code is triplet-based.
E. Each codon represents a different amino acid.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

E. Each codon represents a different amino acid.

Explanation:

The genetic code refers to the set of rules guiding the translation of nucleotide bases in DNA or RNA into an amino acid sequence (proteins). The genetic code contains all the codons in the genome, which is a group of three nucleotide base (triplet-based). Each codon species a particular amino acid, however, more than one codon can code for a particular amino acid. This characteristics of the genetic code is called DEGENERACY.

The genetic code is said to be nearly universal because the same codon encodes the same amino acid in almost all living organisms with only few exceptions. The nonoverlapping nature of the genetic code refers to the fact the three bases of a codon are read independently from the bases of another codon i.e. codons do not overlap.

A codon represents one amino acid but more than one codon can represent the same amino acid. Hence, option E is untrue

The scuba diver is a living system. The scuba gear or self- contained underwater breathing apparatus, is a system of air exchange. How are these two systems interacting? What are inputs and outputs of these systems

Answers

Answer: The carbon dioxide is the output and oxygen is the input of the Scuba apparatus.

Explanation:

The scuba apparatus is a life saving apparatus used by the sea divers. It recycles the exhaled gas and removes the carbon dioxide and compensates for the utilized oxygen gas before the diver is actually supplied with the gas for the purpose of breathing in a circuit. Hence, the carbon dioxide gas is the output and the oxygen is the input.

The emergent property is that cell is the basic unit of life, one or more cells combine to form organism. The correct option is A.

What is emergent property?

An emergent property is a distinctive feature that an entity acquires after becoming a part of a larger system.

Emergent properties aid in the adaptation of living organisms to their surroundings and enhance their likelihood of survival.

Carrying capacities for all species in an ecosystem's biological community are an emergent phenomenon of the ecosystem in its entirety because each species' food supply is a result of what happens in other parts of the ecosystem.

In the given scenario, cells being the basic fundamental structural unit of life, is forming a complete organism. This property of cell is indicating the emergent property.

B. The equator is susceptible to extreme storms so the thermocline changes significantly throughout the year.
C. Due to constant temperatures, there's no thermocline in the polar regions.
D. The thermocline stays relatively stable throughout the year.

Answers

Answer:

B. The equator is susceptible to extreme storms so the thermocline changes significantly throughout the year.

Explanation:

Storms occurs on that locations where there is high temperature and high temperature is only present at the equator due to direct sunlight. So we can say that maximum storms comes at and near the regions of equator. The oceans present near the equator have a warm layer known as thermocline from where water is evaporated and the intensity of storms are also increases.

B. Clear-cutting would limit the amount of nitrogenfixing
bacteria in the area.
C. Clear-cutting would allow for secondary
succession of smaller plants and more carbon.
D. Clear-cutting would increase the amount of
carbon dioxide found in the atmosphere.

Answers

Answer:

D. Clear-cutting would increase the amount of carbon dioxide found in the atmosphere

Explanation:

Plants including trees are organisms that help maintain the balance of carbon in the carbon cycle. They do this via the process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS, which is the way they obtain their energy and carbon source. During photosynthesis, trees (plants) absorb carbon in form of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air through the STOMATA on their leaves.

CO2 is an input substance in order for photosynthesis to occur. In a case where all the trees (plants) of a forest has been clear cut or removed, there will be no organisms to directly absorb the carbon dioxide (CO2) released into the atmosphere via respiration. Hence, the amount of carbon dioxide found in the atmosphere would increase.

Answer:

D. Clear-cutting would increase the amount of

carbon dioxide found in the atmosphere.

2. Copy/paste and align the first 5 bases of all introns. Which bases are conserved near intron start ("donor site")?

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

Introns are non-coding regions of a DNA that removed by RNA splicing prior to translation. Alignment is usually done between sequences to see and understand the identity and similarity between two or more sequences.

A region/base is said to be conserved if there is  NO change in any base in that particular region. A multiple sequence alignment (MSA) can be used to align the donor sites of all the introns to see the bases that have not "changed" (and still remained in there exact position) hence conserved across all the donor sites.

NOTE: The donor site of an intron is the 5' end, thus the first five bases in the 5' end are to be used here

Answers

Answer: The answer is most definitely C: A theory explains  a phenomenon, and a law is a statement about a phenomenon

Explanation:

The statement that BEST describes the difference between a theory and a law is a theory that explains a phenomenon, and a law is a statement about a phenomenon (Option C).

A scientific theory can be defined as a well-sustained explanation of some aspect of the real world which was constructed by using the scientific method.

A scientific theory is constructed by testing hypotheses through experimental and/or observational procedures.

A prediction is the expected outcome derived from a hypothesis or theory.

On the other hand, a scientific law is a phenomenon of the real world that scientists found to be likely true.

Scientific laws are narrower in their scope than theories.

In conclusion, the statement that BEST describes the difference between a theory and a law is a theory that explains a phenomenon, and a law is a statement about a phenomenon (Option C is correct).

patterned white wings 6
solid white wings 2

4 genes; 1 allele each

Which phenotypes are coded for by the same gene? Different genes are separated by semicolons?
yellow and white; patterned feathers and solid
yellow and patterned feathers; white and solid
all by the same gene
each by a separate gene

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

First let's define a few things.

An allele is a variant form of a gene, each gene can have two or more possible alleles, one inherited from each parent. The copies, however, are not necessarily the same. When the copies of a gene differ from each other, they are known as alleles. A given gene may have multiple different alleles, though only two alleles are present at the gene’s locus in any individual. Alleles can sometimes result in different phenotypes (observable traits), with certain alleles being dominant. (overriding the traits of other alleles)

Let's make a table of our bird's alleles.

We can see from the phenotype of her bird's offspring, yellow is dominant over white, and patterned is dominant over solid.

Let's use Y for dominant yellow, w for recessive white, P for dominant pattern, and s for recessive solid. I know dominant and recessive traits usualy use the same letter with recessive traits being lower case, but in this case it makes it easier to determine phenotype.

Our parent birds are dihybrid cross which involves 2 genes coding two traits, with dominant yellow pattern both represented by PPssYYww.

So look at the chart. It has then been color coded by the traits the bird will exhibit. We have:

9 birds with Patterned Yellow Wings

3 birds with Solid Yellow Wings

3 birds with Patterned White Wings

1 bird with Solid White Wings

This is the same ratio Maria found in the phenotypes of her birds.

Now we can answer the questions:

Number of genes and alleles? We can see that there are 2 genes, one gene for pattern, and one gene for color, but there are also 2 alleles the variant of the Pattern and the variant of the color.

Which phenotypes are coded for by the same gene?  

yellow and white; patterned feathers and solid - This one as you can see from the phenotype chart, and as discussed earlier, there are 2 genes, one for color, the other for pattern.

yellow and patterned feathers; white and solid

all by the same gene

each by a separate gene
