6. A gene has a base sequence that begins with TAA TGA CTA GCT. Answer the following questions using the codon table from question #5
a) What RNA sequence would be produced during transcription? Hint: In RNA, A pairs with U. (1
point)
b) What are the first four amino acids coded by this sequence? Hint Look up the amino acids on
the codon table. (1 point)
c) The gene has a frameshift mutation, where the fifth base in the sequence is deleted. Write the
new DNA base sequence. Hint: Rewrite the sequence without the fifth base. (1 point)
d) What is the new RNA sequence? Hint in RNA, A pairs with U (1 point)

relative dating involves things like higher layers are most recent than rocks lower in the sequence. this can be extended to the known sequence of fossils. rocks containing rabbit fossils are later than those containing dinosaur fossils.  

absolute dating methods mainly use radioactive elements that have known rates of decay and produce recognizable products. for example potassium 40 decays to produce argon. once a rock has solidified the argon is trapped. by measuring the argon and potassium0 you can get an accurate number for the age.  

some other methods are good for archaeological ages. dendrochronology involves recognizing the sequence of tree rings. the orientation of magnetized particles in baked clay can be used to date a fire.
