How many n-element RXA sequences consist of 4 As, 3 Cs, 2 Us, and 2 Gs, and end with CAA?
Exercises 53 and 54 are based on a discussion in [RoTe.09], A method used in the 1960s for sequencing RXA chains used enzjmes to break chains after certain links, Some enzymes break EA chains after each G link, while others break them after each C or U link, Using these enzymes it is sometimes possible to correctly sequence all thebases in an RXA chain,

Some albatrosses return to the world’s only mainland colony of royal albatrosses, on OtagoPeninsula near Dunedin, New Zealand, every two years to nest and raise their young. In order tolearn more about the albatrosses, scientists place colored plastic bands on their legs so that theycan be identified from a distance. Suppose that three hands are placed on their right leg, with the color of each band selected from the colors red, yellow, green, white, and blue. Anyone withbinoculars is then able to track a banded bird. For the number of different color codes that arepossible for banding an albatross this way ifa) The three bands are of different colors.b) Repeated colors are permissible.
A single strand of a DNA molecule is a sequence of nucleotides. There are four possible nucleotides in eachposition (step), one of which is cytosine (C). In a particular long strand, it has been observed that C appearsin 34.1% of the positions. Also, in 36.8% of the cases where C appears in one position along the strand, italso appears in the next position.1. What is the probability that a randomly chosen pair of adjacent nucleotides is CC (that has cytosinein both locations).2. If a position along the strand is not C, then what is the probability that the next position is C?3. If a position n along the strand is C, what is the probability that position n + 2 is also C? How aboutposition n + 4?4. Answer parts (a)- (c) if C appeared independently in any one position with probability 0.341.

- What is Icm(16, 28) If we know a b= 50400 and gcd(a, b) = 30, then lem(a, b) =arrow_forward2 strains of Zombie virus strains have been discovered in the US! The strains are described below: Strain A: Each minute, the original zombie infects 3 new people, but the new zombies cannot infect new people. Strain B: Each minute, every zombie infects a new person. New zombies are able to infect new people. Make a prediction: Which strain will create more zombies after 10 minutes? O Strain A O Strain Barrow_forwardHuman genetic material (DNA) is made up of sequences of the molecules adenosine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T), which are called bases. A codon is a sequence of three bases. Replicates are allowed, so AAA, CGC, and so forth are codons. Codons are important because each codon causes a different amino acid to be included in a protein. a. How many different codons are there? b. How many different codons are there in which all three bases are different? c. The bases A and G are called purines, while C and T are called pyrimidines. How many different codons are there in which the third base is a purine and the others are pyrimidines? d. What is the probability that all three bases are different? e. What is the probability that the third base is a purine and the others are pyrimidines?arrow_forward
