Heterozygotes for a loss of expression allele of the methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene can develop Rett syndrome, which affects about one in ten thousand people. Select all of the following that accurately describe the Rett associated allele of MECP2. Group of answer choices dominant negative wildtype at organismal level dominant gain-of-function mutant at molecular level not wildtype at organismal level dominant loss-of-function wildtype at molecular level dominant haploinsufficiency recessive loss of function

Why are frogs absent on the Galagos and other oceanic islands? A. Frogs were unable to migrate to oceanic islands because they evolved after all of the continents drifted apart. B. Frogs were unable colonize oceanic islands because they require a large amount of space (Habitat) and the islands are too small. C.Aquatic frogs survive in fresh water only and oceanic islands do not have sources of fresh water (only salt water). D.Since frogs are land dwelling and the islands...

What is the significance of the gene and protein differences found between Volvox and Chlamydamonas? (e.g., which proteins? what kind of difference?) How do mitochondria enable eukaryotes to reach a level of genetic complexity unattainable by prokaryotes? Describe how the legume-bacteria relationship (symbiosome) compares to our classical view of organelle formation (i.e., mitochondria and plastids). What is similar? What is missing?

Genetics Worksheet Week 3: Gene Regulation and Epigenetics 1. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by a mutation in a gene that is 2.5 million nucleotides in length and encodes a protein called dystrophin. The dystrophin protein itself is 3684 amino acids in length. Calculate below the approximate size of the mRNA that encodes dystrophin. Approximately what percentage of the gene that encodes dystrophin is intron sequence? The human genome encodes a much greater variety and number of proteins than the...
