The approximate LD50 of the least toxic substance will be 130 mg/Kg.

  • The dose necessary to cause the death of 50% of a population under test after a predetermined test period is known as the LD50 value for a drug.
  • Commonly used as a broad indicator of a substance's acute toxicity are LD50 values.
  • Greater toxicity is indicated by a lower LD50. A low LD50 of 500 mg/kg or less implies severe toxicity.
  • Moderate toxicity is indicated by an LD50 of 500 to 1,000 mg/kg. A modest toxicity level of 1,000 to 2,000 mg/kg is indicated.
  • The species is especially vulnerable to the poison if the LD50 is low. The lethal dose (LD50) of a specific poison might change significantly between several animal species.
  • Thus out of all the options, LD50 130 mg/kg will have the lowest toxicity and 20 mg/kg will be the highest.

This kind of modeling is known as (D) simulation. A computer program is used to simulate an environment, in this case, the zoo. Instead of having to do an actual experiment which harms real animals, a simulation is done to cut costs and avoid using live samples.

What type of mutation is shown in the sequence below
almond37 [142]

Answer:

Single nucleotide deletion

Explanation:

Original DNA sequence:

A T A C G G T A

T A T G C C A T

Mutated DNA sequence:

A T C G G T A G

T A G C C A T C

​In the mutated sequence, there is a nucleotide missing. It goes from ATACGGTA to ATCGGTAG. The A nucleotide is gone. This represents a single base pair deletion.

Even though it is only one base, this changes the way the entire sequence is interpreted. The DNA transcribed into an mRNA and then translated into a protein by reading triplet codons which correspond to specific amino acids.

So while the initial sequence would be read as:

ATA, CGG, TA...

The new sequence would be read as:

ATC, GGT, AG...

So the sequence of the protein is completely altered.
