If one or more nucleotide pairs are deleted from a DNA strand, this is known as a frameshift mutation

<h3>Define Frameshift Mutation</h3>

Insertions or deletions in the genome that are not multiples of three nucleotides are referred to as frameshift mutations. They are a particular class of insertion-deletion (indel) alterations that are present in polypeptides' coding sequences. Here, there are no multiples of three in the number of nucleotides that are added to or subtracted from the coding sequence. They may result from really basic alterations like the insertion or deletion of a single nucleotide.

<h3>Frameshift mutations' effects</h3>

One of the most harmful modifications to a protein's coding sequence is a frameshift mutation. They are quite prone to produce non-functional proteins that frequently interfere with a cell's metabolic processes and result in significant alterations to polypeptide length and chemical makeup. Frameshift mutations can cause the mRNA to stop translating too soon and create an extended polypeptide.

In principle, the equilibrium in the dehydration of an alcohol could be shifted to the right be removal of water. Why is this ta
Trava [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember that if we want to remove water from the reaction vessel we have to heat the vessel. So, we can convert the liquid water into <u>gas water</u> and we can remove it from the vessel. In this case, the products of dehydration for both molecules are <u>(E)-4-methylpent-2-ene</u> and <u>cyclohexene</u> with boiling points of <u>59.2 ºC</u> and <u>89 ºC</u> respectively. The boiling point of water is <u>100 ºC</u>, therefore if we heat the vessel the products and water would leave the system, and the products would be lost.

See figure 1

I hope it helps!

To what volume should you dilute 50.0 ml of 12 m hno3 solution to obtain a 0.100 m hno3 solution?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The answer is "6L"

Explanation:

Formula:

\bold{C_1 \times V_1 = C_2 \times V_2 }\\\\V_2= \frac{C_1\times V_1}{C_2}

Values:

\to C_1= 12 \ m\\\to V_1= 50 \ ml\\\to C_2= 0.100 \ m\\\\\\V_2= \frac{12 \times 50 }{0.100}

   = \frac{12 \times 50 }{0.100}\\\\= \frac{12 \times 50 \times 1000}{100}\\\\= \frac{600 \times 1000}{100}\\\\= 600 \times 10\\\\=6000 \ ml\\= 6 \ L

Write the net ionic equation for the reaction between hydrocyanic acid and potassium hydroxide. Do not include states such as (a
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The net ionic equation is as follows:

HCN(aq) + OH-(aq) ----> H20(l) + CN-(aq)

Explanation:

The reaction between Hydrocyanic acid, HCN, and sodium hydroxide is a neutralization reaction between a weak acid and a strong base.

Hydrocyanic acid being a weak acid ionizes only slightly, while sodium hydroxide being a strong base ionizes completely. The equation for the reaction is given below:

A. HCN(aq) + NaOH-(aq) ----> NaCN(aq) + H2O(l)

Since Hydrocyanic acid is written in the aqueous form as it ionizes only slightly and the ionic equation is given below:

HCN(aq) + Na+(aq)+OH-(aq) ----> Na+(aq)+CN-(aq) + H2O(l)

Na+ being a spectator ion is removed from the net ionic equation given below:

HCN(aq) + OH-(aq) ----> H20(l) + CN-(aq)

A uranium atom has 92 protons in its nucleus. how many electrons does it have?
sweet [91]
In a balanced, non-charged atom, the number of protons (positive charge) is equal to the number of electrons (negative charge)

So there are 92 electrons

Which of the following objects would take you the greatest amount of force to accelerate?
horsena [70]

Complete question is;

Which of the following object would take you the greatest amount of force to accelerate.

A) a soccer ball with a mass of 0.5 kg

B) a refrigerator with a mass of 200 kg, C) a bike with a mass of 25 kg

D) a car with a mass of 5,000 kg,

Answer:

D) a car with a mass of 5,000 kg

Explanation:

Formula for force is;

F = ma

Where;

F is force

m is mass

a is acceleration

Now, Force is directly proportional to the acceleration and mass.

Thus, the higher the mass, the greater the force.

Thus, the object that will require the most force is the one that has the highest mass.

Looking at the options, the one with the highest mass is option D.
