A mutation causing an addition or a deletion of one base pair resulted in the production of a nonfunctional mutant protein. The sequences of the normal and mutant proteins are given below. Normal: Met - Tyr - His - Glu - Val Mutant: Met - Phe - Thr - Lys - Cys - Lys - Trp - Arg - Was this mutation cause by an insertion or a deletion?

Coat color in cats is determined by genes at several different loci. at one locus on the x chromosome, one allele (x ) encodes black fur and another allele (xo) encodes orange fur. females can be black (x x ), orange (xoxo), or a mixture of orange and black called tortoiseshell (x xo). males are either black (x y) or orange (xoy). bill has a female tortoiseshell cat named patches. one night, patches escapes from bill\'s house, spends the night out, and mates with a stray male. patches later gives birth to the following kittens: one orange male, one black male, two tortoiseshell females, and one orange female. what are the genotypes of patches, the stray male, and the kittens?

Been sitting here trying to take this test and don't know this answer! place the events of a feedback mechanism associated with body temperature in the correct order. ·nerve cells send message from skin to the brain ·body returned to normal temperature around 98.6 degrees f ·temperatures regulation center in the brain sends out signals ·body temperature exceeds 98.6 degrees f ·sweat glands throughout the body activate to cool off skin surface it is a 1 through 5 question in biology!
