Which of the following statement is true of a semi-conservative model of replication?1) Each newly synthesized double helix of DNA contains one new strand and one old strand. 2)DNA synthesis involves conserving only part of each of the original strands in a DNA molecule. 3)The original DNA molecule is stored in the cell nucleus and serves as a template for creating copies containing two new strands. 4)DNA synthesis involves conserving one strand of a double helix of DNA and discarding the other.
Imagine you are a geneticist interested in studying a newly discovered species of very colorful birds. You have found that a single gene is responsible for their beautiful colors and that yellow birds are homozygous for the yellow allele, blue birds are homozygous for the blue allele and green birds are heterozygous for these alleles. You focused your efforts on studying one specific population and counted 9% yellow, 49% blue and 42% green birds. What are the allele frequencies in this population?\

Anthony is studying how quickly children tire based on the amount of sugar they ingest. He splits a group of 20 children into 2 groups. One group is given sugar and the other is not. Anthony asks the children to start playing at a playground at the same time, and to stop when they tire, measuring the time each child stops playing. He finds that the children who did not ingest sugar played 2 minutes longer than those who did ingest sugar. Anthony rerandomizes the data, calculates the difference between the means, and creates the dot plot shown below. Based on the data, can Anthony conclude the difference is significant?A: Yes Anthony can conclude the difference is significant because a 2-minute difference is not likely to happen by chance B: No, Anthony cannot conclude the difference is significant because a 2-minute difference is likely to happen by chance. C: Yes, Anthony can conclude the difference is significant because 0.25 is the difference in means that occurs most often. D: No, Anthony cannot conclude the difference is significant because 0.25 is the difference in means that occurs most often.

About 96% of the information in human DNA is found in gorilla DNA. This evidence supports which statement?

Answers

The correct answer to the question above would be "Gorillas and humans diverged from a common ancestor." About 96% of the information in human DNA is found in the DNA of a gorilla. This evidence supports that both humans and gorillas came from a common ancestor.

Since there are no statements, about 96% of the information in human DNA is found in gorilla DNA. This evidence supports that humans indeed are somewhat connected to the monkey and that missing link of Darwin’s theory of evolution has finally found its missing piece.

 

What is a nucleic acid? Explain your answer.

Answers

Nucleic acids are the main information-carrying molecules of the cell
Nucleic acids are the main information-carrying molecules of the cell, and, by directing the process of protein synthesis, they determine the inherited characteristics of every living thing.

Review the numbered items below. Then, decide which of the following lists the correct steps of translation in the correct chronological order. I. UGA codon is identified.
II. DNA is unwound to expose a single template strand.
III. tRNA molecules carrying various amino acids bond to mRNA based on the sequence of mRNA codons.
IV. mRNA arrives at the ribosome
V. Introns are snipped out of an mRNA molecule.
V. tRNA, carrying methionine amino acid, bind to mRNA.

Answers

Answer:

IV, VI, III, I

Explanation:

Translation is the process of synthesis of protein from with the help of messenger RNA (mRNA).

The process of translation include initiation, elongation and termination.

  • Initiation: In this step mRNA binds to ribososomes and tRNA, carrying start codon or methionine binds to mRNA.
  • Elongation:In this step, the tRNA molecules carrying several amino acid bind to mRNA based on the sequence of mRNA codon and then moves (translocates) to the next mRNA codon which leads to amino acid chain.
  • Termination: At the end, when a stop codon (UGA) identified, polypeptide is released.

So, the correct chronological order is IV, VI, III, I.
