What would be the consequence of a mutation in a bacterial cell that produces a defective aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase that attaches a lysine instead of the normal phenylalanine to tRNAs with the anticodon AAA?

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes
  1. None of the proteins in the cell will contain phenylalanine.

  2. Proteins in the cell will include lysine instead of phenylalanine at amino acid positions specified by the codon UUU.

  3. The cell will compensate for the defect by attaching phenylalanine to tRNAs with lysinespecifying anticodons.

  4. The ribosome will skip a codon every time a UUU is encountered.

A three point test cross was carried out in Drosophila melanogaster involving three adjacent incomplete link genes A, B and C. arranged in the same order. The distance between A to B is 5 map units (mu) and that between B to C is 10 map.

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

In the plant Arabidopsis, the loci for pod length (L, long; l, short) and fruit hairs (H, hairy; h, smooth) are linked 16 map units apart on the same chromosome. The following crosses were made:

(i) L H/L H X l h/l h = F1

(ii) L h/L h X l H/l H = F1

If the F1’s from (i) and (ii) are crossed, what proportion of the progeny are expected to l h/l h?
