The following table shows the recombination frequencies of 7 gene loci (a, b, c, d, e, f, and g). Image Long Description A table with 4 columns and multiple rows. The column headers are “Loci”, “Recombination Frequency”, “Loci”, and “Recombination Frequency”. The table contains pairs of letters (a through g) connected by “and” in the left columns, with corresponding decimal numbers (ranging from 0.04 to 0.50) in the right columns. The data is organized in rows showing different letter combinations like “a and b”, “b and c”, “c and d”, etc., each paired with their respective numerical values. Which of the following correctly shows the order of alleles in one of the linkage groups?

The genetic profile of the embryos in a population is indicated in the table below. Following natural selection, the deleterious phenotype disappears and only a portion of the population reaches adulthood. Think about the values needed to complete the table, this will help you find the values needed for this question and the following two. Image Long Description A table shows data for embryos with columns labeled AA, Aa, aa, and Total. The Number row shows values 100, 200, 100, and 400. The Frequency row has empty cells except for 1 in the Total column. The Fitness row shows values 1, 0.50, 0, with a gray shaded cell in the Total column. Below this table is a red arrow pointing downward, followed by the text “Natural selection occurs”. Underneath is a second table labeled “Adult” with the same column headers (AA, Aa, aa, Total) but with empty cells in the Number row. What is the frequency of allele a in the reproductive adults? Select the right answer and show your work on your scratch paper for credit.

The following eukaryotic DNA is transcribed into RNA and the mRNA transcript is translated into protein. Image Long Description A sequence of letters arranged in rows with numbers above certain sections. The numbers 1, 11, 21, and 31 appear in the first row, followed by groups of letters: GGCGACGACA, TATAAAGCGA, CGACTGTAGA, and CTGATGAGCC. The numbers 41, 51, 61, and 71 appear in the second row, followed by: TATCCATGGA, CGCGCCATGG, TCACATAAGC, and GGTGCGATGC. The numbers 81, 91, 101, and 111 appear in the third row, followed by: AATAAAACGC, GTATCAGTCA, TTCAGCGTAG, and TCTGATGCCA. The number 121 appears in the fourth row, followed by: GTCGACTGCC. All text appears to be in black on a white background, arranged in a monospace font format. Useful sequences: TATA box: TATAAA, Kozak sequence: A/GccAUGG, Poly-adenylation signal: AAUAAA What are the first bases in the mRNA transcript?
