Answer:
One of the RNA molecules has experienced gene duplication as the result of translocation.
Explanation:
Translocation and duplication are some of the structural abnormalities in the chromosomes that may even cause certain genetic disorders. Duplication is the presence of a genetic segment for more than one time in the chromosome. The repeated genetic segments are mostly present in the tandem pattern. When a chromosome fragment breaks off and attaches to a non-homologous chromosome, it is called translocation. It leads to the deletion of a genetic segment in one chromosome and duplication in the other.
According to the given information, a genetic segment bearing two genes is detached from one RNA and gets attached to the other RNA molecule of the HIV genome. Therefore, the RNA molecule has undergone translocation and has lost a genetic segment while the other has gained a genetic segment (duplication) due to translocation.
Answer: DNA
Explanation:
A chromosome is a thread-like material with a long structure found in the cell nucleus. It mainly contains DNA and proteins. Due to the presence of DNA in chromosomes, it carries several genes.
The total number of chromosomes in human cell is 46: 44 are non-sex chromosomes while 2 are sex chromosomes
<span>The correct option is A. In nuclear fusion, two deuterium nuclei are fused together in the presence of high temperature and pressure to produce HELIUM NUCLEUS, neutron and energy. Very high quantity of energy is liberated during the process. Deuterium is a stable form of hydrogen and is found in water. </span>
