11. Record any differences found in the Normal DNA sequence model of the APP gene as compared to the 3 other DNA sequences shown in the activity. (You are looking at the order of base pairs: the A’s, T’s, G’s, and C’s and resulting amino acid-the secondo one has been completed for you as an example). a. #1 “Individual Without Alzheimer’s: b. #2 “Individual with Alzheimer’s: Example - Difference at the 7 thcodon (A codon is 3 base-pairs) is seen. The Alzheimer’s sequence has TAG on the 3’ to 5” strand instead of CAG. It also has ATC on the 5’ to 3’ strand instead of GTC. This is a one-base pair difference. The 5’ to 3’ strand is the coding strand for mRNA and will be message read for the amino acid. c. #3 “Individual with Alzheimer’s:
