1. You have used a mutagen to induce mutations in a DNA sequence. If the original DNA strand is 5'-ATGGGACTAGATACC-3', then which of the following represents a nonsense mutation? (1pt) 5'-ATGGGTCTAGATACC-3' 5'-ATGCGACTAGATACC-3' 5'-ATGTGACTAGATACC-3' 5'-ATGGGACTAAGATACC-3' 2. A mutation that changes a codon sequence, and subsequently changes the amino acid that should have been placed at that point in the polypeptide chain, is called a… (1pt) silent mutation frameshift mutation missense mutation nonsense mutation 3. Excision repair corrects DNA by (1pt) correcting A=T...
The images below is DNA sequence (in reading frame) and the amino add translation far a region of a protein coding gene for two species you are researching. By comparing the two alignments and or using the translation table provided (remember U = T) mark all of the mutations in the DNA alignment as either non-synonymous (N) or synonymous (S). Place either an "N" or an "S" in the space above the mutation in the DNA alignment. How many non-synonymous...

Inheritance and Mutations in a Single-Gene Disorder (10pts - all questions worth 0.5pts) Some diseases are caused by the environment. For example, exposure to chemicals or extremely bright lights can cause certain forms of blindness. But other forms of blindness are inherited, meaning that they are passed on from one generation to another. In this activity, you will learn about a young woman, Molly Troxel, who has an inherited form of blindness called Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA). The activity explores...
INTRODUCTION
New mutations that arise on the X chromosome can have different
likelihoods of becoming fixed in the population than their
autosomal counterparts. This differential likelihood arises because
the effect of a recessive mutation on an autosome is only expressed
in homozygotes, whereas the effect of a similar recessive mutation
that arises on the X chromosome in a male is fully expressed. Thus,
advantageous recessive mutations are more likely to become fixed if
they are on the X chromosome than...

A series of mutations caused a DNA sequence to change from ATCGATAA to GGCGGTAA. Which of the following sequences do you think will take longer to replicate? Thoroughly explain! A scientist is interested in studying the unfolded protein response in an unknown (has not been previously studied) mutant cell line. The scientist treats the cells with heat to cause the proteins in the ER to denature. Unfortunately, the scientist does not measure any chaperone activity in the ER. The scientist...

Discussion: Should Society Use Mind-Altering Drugs to Make People Feel Better? Some psychoactive drugs have been used for medical purposes-for example, marijuana has been used to counter the side effects of chemotherapy treatments for cancer patients and opioids have been used to relieve severe pain. Some people advocated taking drugs simply to feel better. Are people more likely to be helped or harmed if they were able to take mind-altering drugs legally? Is it a good idea to attempt to...
