14 The sequence of bases for the same segment of DNA is shown below However a mutation has caused a single thymine molecule to be replaced by an adenine The mutation is shown in boldface Determine how this change affects the corresponding mRNA codon and amino acid sequence Record the full mRNA and amino acid sequences in the table below 2 points Template DNA strand triplets Complementary mRNA strand codons Amino acid sequence CAC GTA GAC TGA GGA CAC CTC TTC 15 Use more labeled paper circles to make a model of the polypeptide segment that would result from the mutated gene segment Draw or attach a photo of both the finished sickle cell polypeptide and the normal polypeptide 2 points 16 The hemoglobin proteins that form from the sickle cell polypeptide stick together to form stiff rods within red blood cells Normal hemoglobin molecules do not stick together Using clay balle to represent homoglobin and string to FARFARAN
