2. Must be accurate in order to transmit the genome to the next generation
3. Is accurate in germ cells and error prone in somatic cells
4. Must include some errors in order to produce variation

  • 3 and 4

Frage 2 von 10

1

Photoreactivation

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Does not occur in humans due to the use of sunscreens

  • Causes a bulge in the DNA helix

  • Repairs pyrimidine dimers

  • Utilises UV light for photolyase activity

  • Uses UV light and visible light sequentially

Erklärung

Frage 3 von 10

1

Siamese cats show a range of coat colours on a single individual because:

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Coat colour is a polygenic trait with many genotypes possible in the breed

  • The breed was originally formed by the mating of a pale coat cold-climate cat and a brown coat warm-climate cat

  • Frequent somatic mutation occurs in the TYR genes when cats are not kept warm

  • Cats arise from the fusion of 2 or more zygotes causing genetic mosaicism

  • They are homozygous for a missense mutation in TYR that produces a heat sensitive tyrosinase protein

Erklärung

  • Was the first gene to evolve on the F plasmid

  • Initiates expression of the pilus genes

  • Is the origin of gene transfer in conjugation

  • Encodes the state of origin helper protein

Erklärung

Wähle eine der folgenden:

  • Either inverted repeats or long terminal repeats at the ends

  • A copy and paste mechanism for movement

  • pol and gag genes

  • For a particular breed of animals has the same value for all quantitative traits

  • Can only have a maximum value of 0.5 or 50%

Erklärung

Erklärung

Frage 10 von 10
