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.

 

If you take any bacterial gene sequence, before you begin doing any sequence analysis on it, there are six potential open reading frames. Why are there six?

Mendel crossed tall pea plants with dwarf ones. The F1 plants were all tall. When these F1 plants were selfed to produce F2 generation, he got a 3: 1 tall to dwarf ratio in the offspring. What is the probability that out of three plants (of F2 generation) picked up at random all three would be dwarf?

In the initial phase of glycolysis, each hexose unit is phosphorylated twice and then split, producing two molecules of triose phosphate, in these reactions included irreversible reaction. How much irreversible reaction is performed in the glycolytic pathway through in this series of reactions?
