Which is a point mutation and not a frameshift?.

Biology
1 answer:
Leviafan [203]1 year ago
8 0

An insertion or deletion of a nucleotide base that alters the reading frame is known as a frameshift mutation.

A point mutation only affects one amino acid and does not alter the frame.

The reading frame may or may not move as a result of the insertion or deletion of a nucleotide or combination of nucleotides. The mutation is referred to as a non-frameshift mutation if it does not result in a shift in the reading frame.

The addition or deletion of certain nucleotide base-pairs from the DNA molecule is referred to as an insertion or deletion.

The reading frame may or may not move as a result of the insertion or deletion of a nucleotide or combination of nucleotides. The mutation is referred to as a non-frameshift mutation if it does not result in a shift in the reading frame.

On the other hand, a mutation is known as a frameshift mutation if the reading frame does shift. Where it occurs will determine how it changes.

List the ocean regions that have the highest sea surface salinity
AlladinOne [14]

<u>Answer</u>:

The high sea surface salinity can be observed in the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Arabic ocean and the Mediterranean sea.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Due to rainfall and evaporation of water from sea the density varies with varying salts and minerals concentration that aggregate at the surface. The salinity in the seawater varies according to the amount of evaporation from a particular area.

Low salinity water is found in polar and subpolar regions that are near to the equator. Regions of high salinity are observed in the seawater which is centered around 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south to the equator due to the excess evaporation in these areas.

What is the relationship of nitrogen and grass
fredd [130]

Nitrogen is the major nutrient required by grass and is used to stimulate high growth rates and is key to achieving high yields, however if too much nitrogen is applied this can have a negative effects on quality.

High rates of nitrogen can also cause problems with silage fermentation due to excess nitrate having a negative impact on the fermentation process and will produce silage that is less palatable and the animals will be less keen to eat it.

<span> <span> </span> </span> <span> Nitrate is generally taken up by grasses quicker than it is incorporated into proteins and until used this excess known as luxury uptake is stored in the leaves. Excess nitrate will be present if insufficient time is allowed between application and mowing and can also occur under conditions of poor growth eg low light levels, cool temperatures. It is also a problem if there is a dry spell after application, when nitrate cannot be taken up by the roots, followed by a period of wet weather that results in luxury uptake. The plant cannot convert it to protein quickly enough so it accumulates in the plant. </span>

High rates of nitrogen may cause a reduction in crop sugars as they are used to provide energy for the increased rate of plant growth and for the manufacture of plant proteins and this increased growth rate may in turn lead to lower crop dry matter content although in practice this is often not significant.

Excess nitrate can be avoided by following the Grassland Rule to apply nitrogen at the rate of no more than 2.5 kg N/ha/day.
