Q13. Genomes sizes among related eukaryotes vary much more widely than genome sizes among related bacteria. How is this difference in variability best explained? A. Evolutionary processes (e.g. natural selection) exert less constraint on genome size in eukaryotes than in bacteria. B. Genome size is proportional to energy production - cells that make more ATP have more DNA. C. Eukaryotes have a much wider range of chromosome number than bacteria. D. Organisms with greater morphological complexity have larger genomes.

19) Thalassaemia is a genetic disorder in which the red blood cells in the body cannot carry oxygen. A mutation in the thalassaemia gene prevents hemoglobin, the protein responsible for carrying oxygen around the body, from carrying a lot of oxygen. This makes people with thalassaemia very tired and they have a lot of trouble breathing. A. Look at the DNA sequences for normal hemoglobin and the mutated form of hemoglobin. Fill in the chart to find the mRNA, and the amino acid sequence for the mutated DNA.
