Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The calcaneal tendon or Achilles tendon rupture is commonly affects the sports people especially in recreational sports. Moreover, the calcaneal tendon rupture is more usual in old age and middle age people. This calcaneal tendon is a strong fibrous tendon, which connects the muscles from the back of the calf to heel bone. Whenever the tendon is overstretched it will lead to complete or partial rupture. Usually this type of rupture will occur when jumping, falling from a height, and stepping into a hole.

- Molecular Biology Question Explain why the cell doesn’t need 61 tRNAs (one for each codon). Please help. Thank youarrow_forwardMolecular Biology You discover a disease causing mutation (indicated by the arrow) that alters splicing of its mRNA. This mutation (a base substitution in the splicing sequence) eliminates a 3’ splice site resulting in the inclusion of the second intron (I2) in the final mRNA. We are going to pretend that this intron is short having only 15 nucleotides (most introns are much longer so this is just to make things simple) with the following sequence shown below in bold. The ( ) indicate the reading frames in the exons; the included intron 2 sequences are in bold. A. Would you expected this change to be harmful? ExplainB. If you were to do gene therapy to fix this problem, briefly explain what type of gene therapy youwould use to correct this. Please help. Thank youarrow_forwardMolecular Biology Question Please help.
