2074/What is mutation? Explain different types of mutation involving changes in
chromosome number and chromosome structure?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mutation is the changing of the structure of genes resulting in a varied form that may be transmitted to subsequent generations, caused by the alteration of single base units in DNA or the deletion, insertion, or rearrangement of larger sections of genes or chromosomes.

A silent mutation is a mutation where the codon still corresponds to the same amino acid. The sequence of amino acids is not changed so the protein that gets made is the same as the wild type, or normal protein.

A missense mutation changes the codon so that it codes for a different amino acid.

Finally, a nonsense mutation causes protein creation to stop early, which makes a non-functioning protein.

Substitution means that one base is exchanged for another. This is kinda like having a substitute teacher. The sub isn't your normal teacher, but they are still a teacher. A protein that is made with a substitution might still function normally, or it could be nonfunctional.

Deletion is kinda self-explanatory. It happens when a base is deleted or, in other words, is just missing.

Finally, insertion means an extra nucleotide is added.

Which of the following are differences between DNA and RNA? Mark all that apply.

a- DNA nucleotides include: Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Thymine
b- RNA nucleotides include: Adenine, Cytosine, Guanine and Uracil
c- DNA normally exists as double stranded
d- RNA normally exists as single stranded
e- RNA normally exists as double stranded
f- DNA normally exists as single stranded
g- The sugar in DNA is a ribose
h- The sugar in RNA is a deoxyribose

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - a, b, c, d, g and h.

Explanation:

DNA and RNA both are nucleic acids and have considered genetic materials. There are certain difference in these molecules such as-

Different sugars present in the nucleotide, Deoxyribose sugar in DNA and ribose sugar in RNA.

There are different nitrogenous bases also present as RNA has uracil instead of thymine.

DNA normally found in double-stranded while RNA exists in single-stranded.

3. Which of the following represents correctly paired nitrogen bases? (a) Adenine- Cytosine; (b) Cytosine-Thymine; (c) Guanine-Thymine; (d) Guanine-Cytosine.

Answers

Answer: The option that correctly represents paired nitrogen bases is D ( Guanine-Cytosine)

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid( DNA) is found in chromosomes which are located in the nucleus of cells. One of its main functions is to store the organism's hereditary traits and direct the day to day metabolic activities of each cell in the organism.

The DNA molecule consists of two strands that curve spirally to form a double helix structure which consists of:

--> phosphate,

--> A sugar called deoxyribose, and

--> Four nitrogenous bases—adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine

The four different NITROGEN BASES pair together in a way known as complementary pairing. ADENINE always pairs with THYMINE, and CYTOSINE always pairs with GUANINE.This is because of their molecular structures. Each base contains one or two nitrogen rings, which makes it long or short. It also has a sticky end of binding sites that connects with exactly one other base.

--> Adenine is long and has two binding sites.

--> Thymine is short and has two binding sites.

--> Guanine is long and has three binding sites.

--> Cytosine is short and has three binding sites.

From the above analysis, GUANINE can only bind to CYTOSINE.

Which of the following statements is correct regarding engineering maize plants with a herbicide-resistance gene using Agrobacterium-mediated plant transformation?

a. The Ti-plasmid used for this experiment must contain tumor-inducing genes.
b. The herbicide-resistance gene is cloned into the T-DNA region of the Ti-plasmid.
c. The herbicide-resistance gene is cloned into a region outside of the T-DNA in the Ti-plasmid.
d. A guide RNA is used to transfer T-DNA from Agrobacterium to the plant cell.
e. The whole Ti-plasmid containing the herbicide-resistance gene is inserted into the maize genome after infection with Agrobacterium

Answers

Answer:

b. The herbicide-resistance gene is cloned into the T-DNA region of the Ti-plasmid.

Explanation:

Ti-plasmid has the ability to introduce part of its DNA (t-DNA) into the genome of host plants. This is very important for the relationship of genetic manipulation in maize plants, with the aim of inducing a gene that promotes herbicide resistance. In addition, T-DNA has many genes that code for the production of plant growth phytohormones, which is extremely important for the cloning process to work. In this case, we can assume that the correct answer for yours is the letter B.
