A single mutation causes sickle-cell disease. Which of the following statements best describes how this occurs? Three nucleotide mutations cause normal glutamine amino acids to be replaced with valine amino acids. This causes excess hemoglobin proteins to be synthesized, causing red blood cells to swell to the point of bursting, resulting in burst cells that have a sickle-shape. Several nucleotides are removed, which causes the start codon to shift. This results in an incorrect number of amino acids to be incorporated into the hemoglobin protein, leading to the sickle-shaped red blood cells. A single nucleotide mutation causes a normal glutamine amino acid to be replaced with a valine amino acid. This causes the resulting hemoglobin protein to form incorrectly, resulting in sickle-shaped red blood cells that cannot function as intended. The addition of several nucleotides causes the start codon to shift down several places. This causes RNA polymerase to bind in the incorrect spot so that several extra amino acids are included in the polypeptide chain during translation. This results in a hemoglobin protein that is incorrectly formed, resulting in sickle-shaped red blood cells that cannot function as intended.

Which of the following best describes how the environment may play a role in the expression of our genes? The environment can alter an individual's appearance, but because these changes are temporary and unable to be inherited, they have no impact on the genotype or the expression of that genotype. The environment is not able to alter genes or their physical expressions. Genotypes and phenotypes are both completely independent of environmental changes, unless in the form of mutations. Some phenotypes, including skin color, can be influenced by the environment. The genotype still determines some aspect of skin color, but the interaction with the environment, in the form of sun exposure, can cause variations in the resulting phenotype. All genes are directly influenced by the environment, even if only in minor ways, so the environment will always alter phenotype for all genes.

Review the following statements about mutations. Which of the statements concerning mutations is false? Due to multiple mutations in the hemoglobin gene, these changes prevent the complex hemoglobin protein to fold correctly, resulting in the sickle cell shape of the red blood cells. In genetic diseases, like sickle cell disease, the cell machinery involved in translation does not make any determination as to whether the resulting protein has the correct structure for its function. If there are mutations in a hemoglobin gene, the ribosome in the cell will manufacture the protein using these instructions and will not change the amino acids even if it is incorrect. In sickle cell disease, a single mutation in the hemoglobin gene causes the normal glutamine amino acid to be replaced by a valine amino acid.

Two parents with Type A and Type B blood have a child with Type AB blood. How is this possible? Type A blood is co-recessive with Type B blood, so as long as there is not a dominant blood type present, both recessive alleles will be expressed equally. Type A blood is incompletely dominant to Type B blood. This means that individuals with alleles for both Type A and Type B will express a blended intermediate between these two blood types. This is not possible. The child cannot be their biological child. Type A blood is codominant with Type B blood, so both alleles are expressed equally.
