Triplet codons and probability

Find the number of triplet codons feasible from 4 ribonucleotides A, U, G and C containing a) no uracil, b) one or more uracils.

Predicting triplets in laboratory conditions

Under laboratory conditions, a synthetic polyribonucleiotide was produced using a mixture of A and G with a relative frequency of 5:1 respectively. How would a scientist predict the relative frequencies in which the triplets are expected to form when the ribonucleotides form in a random linear array? Indicate which amino acid(s) the triplet codons specify.

Probability in drosophila mutation experiment

In a mutation experiment in drosophila, 45 mutations were detected amongst 543 males that received 2500 Roentgens (R) and 67 mutations in 649 males that received 4000R. What is the number of progeny expected in 1000 progeny of males exposed to 6000R?

Prediction of DNA strandedness using base composition

In one set of Φ X phages the deoxyribonucleotide composition was A = 24.7, T = 32.7, G = 24.1 and C = 18.5. Another set of phages had the following deoxyribonucleotide composition - A = 27.6, T = 27.8, G = 22.3 and C = 22.3. a) Find the A/T, G/C ratio of the 2nd set of phages. b) What is the structure of the phage DNA with respect to the above calculated ratio? c) Is there any difference in the ratio of the 1st set and 2nd set of phages?

Composition of bases in yeast

DNA of a certain species of yeast has thymidilic acid content of 32.6%. If the A/T ratio is 0.97, what is the composition of deoxyadenylic acid?
