In the 1960s the molecular biologist George Streisinger developed the strand- slippage hypothesis. Streisinger noticed that mutations occurred in areas of DNA that contained many repeated sequences. When a strand -slippage occurs, an insertion mutation can result. How does the insertion mutation affect the DNA?

Which of the following statements regarding anfinsen's denaturing experiments with ribonuclease a (rnase a) are valid? exposing the denatured protein to air oxidation and then dialysis to remove urea restored the protein to its original functionality. removing urea by dialysis and then allowing air oxidation of the denatured protein restored the protein to its original functionality. denaturing the protein with both urea and β-mercaptoethanol yielded an inactive protein. anfinsen concluded that protein folding is determined by its primary sequence.

Select the correct answer. in the image, if the washcloth represents consumed food, which organ of the digestive system correctly represents the action performed by the hands? hands squeezing water from a washcloth a. esophagus b. large intestine c. liver d. mouth

Considering the yellow and green pea color phenotypes studied by gregor mendel: a. what is the biochemical function of the protein that is specified by the gene responsible for the pea color phenotype? (1 point) b. a null allele of a gene is an allele that does not specify (or encode) any of the biochemical function that the gene normally provides (in other words, either no protein at all or only non-functional protein is produced from it). of the two alleles, y and y, which is more likely to be a null allele? (1 point) c. in terms of the underlying biochemistry, why is the y allele dominant to the y allele? (2 points) d. why are peas that are yy homozygotes green? (1 point) e. the amount of protein produced from a gene is roughly proportional to the number of functional copies of the gene carried by a cell or individual. what do the phenotypes of yy homozygotes, yy heterozygotes, and yy homozygotes tell us about the amount of sgr enzyme needed to produce a yellow color? explain your reasoning.
