Question
Chapter 9.7, Problem 5MC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The reasons due to which sex chromosome abnormalities include XO but not OY.
Introduction:
Nondisjunction is an error that usually occurs during cell division. These errors can result in the production of gametes having extra or missing chromosomes. These errors can result in chromosomal abnormalities which can have a devastating effect on the health of an individual.

Molecular Biology Question
You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?
Molecular Biology
Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.
