Determine which statements could be used as evidence to support the argument that "DNA influences the proteins that are made" and which statements are just facts. [Select all that apply.] O The HBB gene that makes beta-globin has several abnormal alleles, including HbS, HbC, and HbE. O Sickle cell disease has been successfully treated using bone marrow transplantation in children and adults. O The symptoms of sickle cell anemia may not appear in individuals who only carry one HbS allele, but are always apparent when both alleles are HbS. If oxygen is removed from red blood cells made by two HbS alleles, the cell will form a sickle shape.

Give a concise answer to the question: Under what circumstances, if any, should a government mandate any type of genetic testing?
People who carry a theoretical genetic disorder (called B-disease) can be identified from a 2kb DNA sequence. People who carry this genetic disorder have a single nucleotide polymorphism that results in a change of GTATCC to GGATCC, a site that only occurs once at nucleotide number 750 in this DNA sequence. Answer the following questions based on the information provided: (a) How can you develop a simple molecular test to identify the genetic disorder (based on the information above) ? (b) If you have carried out the molecular test (based on the information above) on a 100 individual and found that 24 were healthy (BB) and 26 were carriers (bb); 1) What is the ratio of heterozygous? 2) Show how can you identify the three types from the agarose gel ? *note: the carrier means : (bb), I mean the diseased individuals who are carriers of the bb genotype.
Suppose that you could undergo genetic testing at age 18 for susceptibility to a genetic disease that would not appear until middle age and has no available treatment. a. What would be some of the possible reasons for having such a genetic test and some of the possible reasons for not having the test? b. Would you personally want to be tested? Explain your reasoning.
See the attachment and answer the following parts of the question: A) If the binturong genome is 2.87 x 109 base pairs, and the "highly repetitive DNA" fraction is composed entirely of copies of sequence 5'ATGGTCC3' and its complement, how many copies of this sequence are present in the binturong genome? B) Briefly explain, in your own words, why the fraction of the binturong DNA fragments that reannealed relatively slowly took so much longer to renature than the other DNA fragments. C) If you took more of the same randomly generated 1000 bp fragments of binturong DNA (the same sample that you used in the equilibrium density gradient centrifugation experiment described in part a and the C0t curve described in part b of this question) and used them as a sample in agarose gel electrophoresis, how many bands would you expect to find in the gel when you turned off the current and stained the gel with ethidium bromide? Briefly explain why you would predict that number of bands.
in a species of bee all females are produced by females that are exact clones of there mothers. Male bees that fertilize eggs can make the eggs inert, therefore only females can produce female eggs. In this situation, how much of the offsprings DNA is the same as the DNA of its mother Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion

Null mutations are valuable genetic resources becausethey allow a researcher to determine what happens to anorganism in the complete absence of a particular protein. However, it is often not a trivial matter to determinewhether a mutation represents the null state of the gene.a. Geneticists sometimes use the following test forthe nullness of an allele in a diploid organism: If theabnormal phenotype seen in a homozygote for theallele is identical to that seen in a heterozygote(where one chromosome carries the allele in question and the homologous chromosome is known tobe completely deleted for the gene) then the alleleis null. What is the underlying rationale for thistest? What limitations might there be in interpreting such a result?b. Can you think of other methods to determinewhether an allele represents the null state of a particular gene?

Gene Expression and the Impact of a Mutation. Can someone help me to answer the question 8 and 9, please? 8. How has the mutation altered the polypeptide? Is the function of the hemoglobin molecule (which includes 2 ẞ-globin polypeptides and 2 a-globin polypeptides) impaired? (Read your book to learn more about sickle cell disease.) 9. What is the relationship between the genotype in this case and the individual's phenotype? asap please
