Answer: true
Explanation:
Only the mRNA made from the DNA takes part in the protein synthesis
They could have gotten the genes from their dad, while the other girl got the eye color gene from her mom!<span />
Answer:
Because DNA polymerase can synthesize DNA strands in 5' to 3' direction only.
Explanation:
The 5' end of one DNA strand is present opposite to the 3' end of the other strand. But DNA polymerase enzyme can elongate the primers in 5' to 3' direction only. Formation of a phosphodiester bond between the existing nucleotide and the incoming nucleotide requires the free 3'OH. This 3' OH serves in the nucleophilic attack during the formation of the bond.
Therefore, the lagging strand is synthesized discontinuously in the form of short DNA fragments. These are called Okazaki fragments. Primers are formed for short distances which in turn are elongated by DNA polymerase to form the Okazaki fragments. On the other hand, the synthesis of the leading strand occurs continuously in the same direction in which the replication fork moves.
Answer:
Option D, 75%
Explanation:
Let the genotype of co dominant checkered hen mates and checkered rooster be CcC and CcC
Where Cc – is the allele for chekered skin
C – is the allele for non chekered skin
Co-dominant allele are those which irrespective of being dominant or recessive are expressed equally.
The punnet square for the cross between these two would be
Cc C
Cc CcCc CcC
C CCc CC
3 out of 4 offsprings have chekered allele i.e CcCc, CcC and CcC. Thus, the probability of chekered offsprings would be 75%
