Mendel's Experiments With Pea Plants

1871 Words8 Pages

Complete Name: Unit 4 Student Name: Beard, Matthew ********************************************************************************************************** 1. Describe Mendel's P, F1, and F2 generations in his experiments with pea plants. Student Answer: Mendel was a pioneer botanist, and some of his earlier works involved the study of the seed shape and traits. One of the first (Peter Daempfle, 2001) seed plants that Mendel dealt with was pea plants that he first noticed were always round or wrinkled, and they never portrayed any other trait other than that. He took the initiative to experiment with them, and the first experiment involved color where he crosses pollinated the purple with the white flowered parent plants. The results …show more content…

UTTCTTT c. AAAAAA d. CCCCC Student Answer: . ATTGCCb. UTTCTTTc. AAAAAAd. CCCCC We can use the following analogy to (Peter Daempfle, 2001) translate the DNA to mRNA. We can also use this analogy to determine from the mentioned sequences which is not a correct translation of the mRNA.DNA matches with mRNA in:A matches with UT matches with AG matches with CC matches with G The odd one out from the sequence is clearly (b) that is UTTCTTT this is because the code T is from a DNA sequence rather than from a mRNA sequence.Peter Daempfle (2001). `Essential Biology An applied approach` Kendall hunt publishing Company Correct Answer: n/a ********************************************************************************************************** 9.

To understand (Peter Daempfle, 2001) the consequences of loss of tRNA we have to understand their function. The first is that the tRNA is responsible for the translation of nucleic acids and nucleotides into proteins or amino acids. Hence the lack of tRNA would be costly as the translation would not occur. The tRNA is responsible for bringing the amino acids to the ribosomes. Due to the lack of tRNA, the step would not be possible, and as a consequence, a cell will not be able to divide.Peter Daempfle (2001). `Essential Biology An applied approach` Kendall hunt publishing

The Bean Trees By Kingsolver: An Analysis

143 Words | 1 Pages

Another example of how immigrants are mistreated is usually when they come to America. Although America is usually advertised as a “safe heaven” or “land of opportunity”, it could also be a very cruel and difficult place for foreigners to try and fit in. There was a part in the infamous book Of Mice and Men written by John Steinbeck where Crooks was not allowed to play cards or even sit at the same table as the other men because he was black (not originally from America). This example depicts how poorly immigrants can be treated in a so-called “land of opportunity”. The novel The Bean Trees written by Barbara Kingsolver contains yet another great example.

Biology: Photosynthesis And Respiration

593 Words | 3 Pages

As stated in the background of the lab, "seeds are considered to be in a period of dormancy, where they metabolize stored energy at a very slow rate while the seed is still considered alive" (Hands On Labs). During germination, the developing plant embryo uses the stored food supply in the seed for cellular energy and growth. Thus, cellular respiration is taking place as the seeds grow. Without water the seeds cannot begin germinating thus the seeds in test tube N did not undergo photosynthesis(Hands On Labs). B. Were the seeds in the “G” tube undergoing both photosynthesis and respiration, only photosynthesis, or only respiration?

Summary Of An Indian Father's Plea By Robert G. Lake-Thom

225 Words | 1 Pages

In “An Indian Father’s Plea” by Robert G. Lake-Thom, Lake-Thom uses transitions to help connect his ideas and create a well written essay. In the twelfth paragraph the author discusses the knowledge that his son possessed before he began going to the school he is currently attending. Since Lake-Thom is listing the knowledge his son possessed before starting at that school he uses the transitional expression “and” frequently in this paragraph. Lake-Thom also repeatedly uses the transitional expression “but” when he says that while his son may not be able to do something that other non-Indian children his age can do such as writing their names he has knowledge of other things that those children don’t have. He also begins multiple sentences with

To Graduate Committee Admission of Biochemistry and Cell Biology Program of Rice University: My inclination to study biology comes to me since I was little boy. I always found amazing the capabilities of living beings and mechanisms that allow life, development and evolution of organisms. Particularly interesting were my first approaches to microbiology in early classes in high school. My fascination by biological sciences was such that it led me to win the National Biology Contest held in Cuba, my native country in 2004. This was one of my first academic achievements in my short career and allowed me to directly enter the best pre-university school in my country.

Informative Speech On Dna

A group of 3 nucleotides is called codons. Each codon on the mRNA molecule matches a corresponding anti-codon on the base of a tRNA molecule. The tRNA anti-codon attaches to the mRNA codon. Then, the larger subunit of the ribosome disconnects an amino acid from a corresponding tRNA molecule and adds it to the growing protein chain. When the mRNA is completely decoded a protein is made
