A model of gene expression within the lac operon is shown here. If a mutation occurs in the operator (O) region of the operon that changes the sequence of nucleotides in the operator, which statement(s) predict the outcome of this mutation? Select ALL that apply.

If the coding part of an mrna molecule is 1800 nucleotides (bases) in length, this molecule will contain codons and code for a polypeptide that is amino acids long.

In a classic experiment using pea shape, mendel conducted two separate genetic crosses. in the first cross the parent plants were “true breeding” for pea shape; one had round peas ( r )and the other had wrinkled (r). the first cross produced a filial 1 generation of all round peas. in the second cross, mendel bred plants from the filial 1 generation. this cross produced different results. out of approximately 1000 plants, about 75% were round and 25% were wrinkled.

Which represents the cross between parent plants if one is heterozygous for yellow-colored pods and the other is homozygous for green-colored pods? yy  ´    ´    ´    ´  yy
