- ARVC5 is a disorder characterized by the replacement of healthy heart tissue with fatty fibrous tissue. Recent research has discovered the mutated gene that causes the disorder is on chromosome 3. People who have the mutation have a GCG triplet instead of the normal ACA triplet. The following is a section of a gene on chromosome 3: GGT GCG ACA ATT 1. Complete the following table.

- When a female melanotic fly is crossed with a normal male, the progeny are produced: 123 normal females, 125 melanotic females, and 124 normal males. In subsequent crosses between melanotic females and normal males, melanotic females are frequently obtained, but never any melanotic males.

Select 4 correct answer(s) Question 14 options: A) Mutations are induced to occur in response to a selective pressure. B) Crossover suppression occurs when no recombinant progeny are observed between two genes located within a homozygous paracentric inversion. C) The ends of each chromosome are replicated by an RNA-protein complex called telomerase. D) When a mismatched base pair occurs during DNA replication, mismatch repair corrects the mismatch by replacing the nucleotide on the template strand. E) Mutations occur spontaneously and so may be pre-existing in a population when a selective pressure arises.
