Is 1.732050808 rational or irrational?
The number has a decimal representation that terminates (after 9 digits). If it terminates, the number is rational.
A decimal that stops or terminates?
termanating decimals
What are the disadvantages of Huffman coding over arithmetic coding?
Kodam
Is one and a half rational or irrational?
It is rational because it terminates.
What is a decimal that neither terminates nor repeates?
An irrational number. eg Pi (3.141592.......)
Which amino acid is coded by the DNA codon TAC?
It is a triplet of bases (codon) coding for the amino acid tyrosine
What is the term for the three letter code on mRNA?
The three coding letters on mRNA are known as a codon. They code for a specific amino acid to be added to the protein chain being created.
What is the coding region in DNA transcription?
The coding region of a gene is that portion of a gene's DNA or RNA, composed of exons, that codes for protein. The coding region of an organism is the sum total of the organism's genome.
What happens to the resulting polypeptide when 1 nucleotide pair is lost from the middle of the coding sequence of a gene?
A deletion is a serious mutation. This would cause a shift in the reading frame and every triplet after that one, including that one, would not be one nucleotide off. This would most likely cause every amino acid to change (although they could stay the same because there are multiple codings for each amino acid). Depending on where this was in the DNA chain it can cause a small loss of function or a total loss of function of that particular protein.
A region of tRNA that consists of three bases complimentary to the codon of RNA?
Anticodon?
What genetic locus serves as a recognition site for RNA polymerase?
The promoter region, typically located upstream of the coding sequence, serves as the recognition site for RNA polymerase. It contains specific DNA sequences that allow RNA polymerase to bind and initiate transcription.
Point mutations occur when?
Coding region and noncoding region
How is it possible for gene with a mutation in coding region to encode a polypeptide with the same amino acid sequence as the nonmutant gene?
If the mutant codon still codes for the same amino acid (a silent mutation). For example: GUU, GUC, GUA and GUG all code for the amino acid Valine. So if the mutation changed the codon from GUU to GUA - Valine would still be produced and therefore the polypeptide will be identical.
Where do you find a anticodon?
Codon is found on the messenger RNA(m RNA).During translation, the codons on the m RNA are read by the ribosome and amino acid corresponding to the codon is added. when ribosome encounters a stop codon (UAG,UGA and UAA) translation terminates.
What is the terms refers to a region of a chromosome that has a specifiic function?
The region of chromosome that is generally thought of as the unit of function is the "gene". Genes are composed of both a "coding region"--that sequence that tells the cell's machinery what the protein will be--and a "regulatory" region, which tells the cell when to turn on the coding region to make the protein.
Does the Nintendo 64 have region coding?
Yes. Pal and NTSC.
What is the region of DNA where RNA synthesis begins called?
The region of DNA where RNA synthesis begins is the promoter. DNA contains a number of upstream regulatory and promoter sequences but the region of DNA where RNA synthesis begins is the start codon. This is the first codon that translates into an RNA nucleotide.
