A research group has sequenced the cDNA and genomic DNA from a particular gene. The cDNA is derived from mRNA, so it does not contain introns. Here are the DNA sequences. cDNA:
5'-- - CAGTATAATCATATA-3
Indicate where the intron is located. Does the intron contain the normal consensus splice site sequences based on those described in the figure BELOW and then underline the splice site sequences, and indicate whether or not they fit the consensus sequence.

Two male mice, which we will call male a and male b, are both phenotypically normal. male a was from a litter that contained half phenotypically normal mice and half dwarf mice. the mother of male a was known to be homozygous for the normal igf2 allele. male b was from a litter of eight mice that were all phenotypically normal. the parents of male b were a phenotypically normal male and a dwarf female. male a and male b were put into a cage with two female mice that we will call female a and female b. female a is a dwarf and female b is phenotypically normal. the parents of these two females were unknown, although it was known that they were from the same litter. the mice were allowed to mate with each other, and the following data were obtained: female a gave birth to three dwarf babies and four normal babies. female b gave birth to four normal babies and two dwarf babies. which male(s)mated with female a and female b? male a with both females male a with female b, and male b with female a male a with female a, and male b with female b could not be determined male b with both females

Which characteristics must an object possess in order to be considered alive?

Ihave made a synthetic cell by placing a solution that is 10% sodium chloride inside a semipermeable membrane through which water can pass but not sodium chloride. if i place this cell into a solution that is 20% sodium chloride what will happen to the size of the cell? will it increase, decrease, or stay the same in size?
