Microscopy is not a method used to detect extrasolar planets.

<h3>Methods of detecting exoplanets:</h3>

Any planetary body beyond the solar system that typically orbits a star other than the Sun is referred to as an extrasolar planet, often known as an exoplanet. There are 3,779 planetary systems with 3,108 confirmed exoplanets as of 1 July 2022, 826 of which contain multiple planets. The Kepler space telescope was responsible for most of these discoveries.

Exoplanets contain elements that are comparable to those found in our solar system, but their compositions of those elements may vary. Iron or carbon may dominate some planets, whilst water or ice may rule others.

The following methods have at least once proved successful for discovering an extrasolar planet or detecting an already discovered planet:

  • Radial velocity
  • Transit photometry
  • Ellipsoidal variations
  • Pulsar timing
  • Variable star timing
  • Transit timing
  • Transit duration variation
  • Eclipsing binary minima timing
  • Gravitational microlensing
  • Direct imaging

rjkz [21]
The exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids that may result in new gene combinations on the chromosomes is called the random assortment. It involves formation of random combinations of chromosomes in meiosis and of genes on different pairs of homologous chromosomes by the passage according to the laws of probability of one of each diploid pair of homologous chromosomes into each gamete independently to each other pair.

TACATCCATCAGTTACGC A guanine replaced the 1st Thymine in the original DNA strand above, how many amino acids would be changed as
Julli [10]

Answer:

One amino acid

Explanation:

This question is describing the occurrence of the process of mutation, which is the alteration in the genetic sequence of a gene. In this question, a DNA sequence was given as follows: TAC-ATC-CAT-CAG-TTA-CGC. However, a SUBSTITUTION MUTATION took place in such a way that the thymine base was replaced by a guanine base to have mutated sequence: GAC-ATC-CAT-CAG-TTA-CGC.

Since the mutation is a kind of substitution mutation, only the codon affected by that mutation will change. This DNA sequence will be transcribed into a mRNA sequence. The mRNA will be read codon by codon (a group of hree nucleotides) to produce amino acid. Since one codon will be involved, one amino acid will be affected.
