Answer C.
Transposable elements are sequences of DNA which hold the capacity to move or transfer from one location on a chromosome to another chromosome.These transposable elemnts also called as jumping genes were first discovered in maize by Barbara McClintock.
There portion of human genome with transposable elements is 44%.So one can ask then there should be lot of translocation in chromosomes it is because only a small portion as small as 0.05% is active i.e. they actually translocate.
What percentage of the human genome is derived from transposable elements? a. less than 5% b....
Transposable elements make up more than 40% of the human genome and are inserted more-or-less randomly throughout the genome. These elements are rare at the four homeobox gene clusters (HoxA, B, C, andD) along with an equivalent region of chromosome 22, which lacks a Hoxcluster. Each cluster is about 100 kb in length and contains 9-11 genes. Why would transposable elements be so rare then in these clusters?
1. Which of the below explain how the human genome can be composed of less than 30000 genes and yet we can synthesize over 60000 unique proteins? Explain a. mutations b. allosteric regulation of proteins c. alternative splicing of mRNA d. Addition of poly-A tails of different lengths
Which of the following statements about the human genome is true? a. >90% of human genes have homologs in mouse genome b. <5% of human genome is composed of coding sequences c. Close to 50% of the genome is made of repetitive sequences d. All of the above statments are true e. a and b is true
1) What is the ultimate goal of the Human Genome Project? A) to rid the human population of genetic disease B) to better understand the genes and regulatory elements of the genome C) to map all the genes in the genome so they can be edited with CRISPR-cas D) to understand all of the proteins generated in a cell 2) ________ alleles are those that are not epistatic over nonallelic genes that influence the same phenotypic characteristic. A) Additive B)...
a) Why was it important to sequence ESTs as well as the human genome? A. Because ESTs contain sequence that is not in the genome B. To identify the location of the exons C. To identify the location of the promoter D. Because ESTs are different than what is in the human genome b) What regions of the genome are missing if only ESTs are sequenced? A. cDNA B. Exons C. mRNA D. 3'UTR E. Introns c) Name a region...
