TAMU bio 111 lab exam 2 review (2023/2024) already passed What is the difference between the coding and non-coding region? Coding region: comprised of genes that encode proteins (instructions that determine traits) and makes up 1-2% of human DNA. • Noncoding region: makes up 98-99% of human DNA, contains STRs and is responsible for regulatory functions such as gene transcription. What are STRs? Short-tandem repeats (STRs) are unique repeating patterns of the same nucleotide sequence. They can...

Philosophical Underpinnings Task List A-1 Rob conducts a study following an ABAB design to measure if a DRA procedure would reduce the frequency of self-injurious behavior. Self-injurious behavior was reduced during all three phases after initial baseline. When the study ended Rob discovered that the client started a medication change at the same time that the study began. Which level of scientific understanding did Rob demonstrate? 1. None 2. Description 3. Control 4. Prediction - ...
