A population of insects is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for a gene with alleles A = orange and a = yellow eyes. There are 91% orange and 9% yellow individuals in the population. If the fitness of the yellow phenotype suddenly drops to zero, what will be the allele frequency in the next generation?

Upon secretion of wnt, When Wnt attaches to the Frizzled receptor on a responding cell, the cell secretes Notum, a hydrolase that associates with glypican and then cleaves off Wnt’s attached lipids in a process of deacylation or delipidation. This process:

You have isolated two mutations that show decreased expression of the Lac operon. However, unlike like the promoter mutations, these mutations don’t respond to the inducer IPTG. These mutations, designated Lac3– and Lac4–, are evaluated for the quantity of ß-galactosidase and permease activity expressed with or without IPTG:
 
Mapping experiments reveal that Lac3– and Lac4– are different short deletions located in the region before the start of the LacZ gene. Given the data shown above suggest which genetic element(s) in addition to part of the promoter has been deleted in each mutant.

 You are a scientist who is using genomics to currently study a new bacterial species that no one has ever studied before. The following sequence is a piece of DNA within the coding region of a gene that you have recently sequenced.
 
You are using shotgun sequencing to determine the DNA sequence of the genome of this new bacterial species. For one strand of a 30-nucleotide long stretch of DNA, you get the following sequences out of your shotgun sequencing reaction. 
 
Choose correct 30-nt-long DNA sequence with the help of above-mentioned fragments
