Answer:

CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG

Explanation:

Changes occur in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA molecule. These changes referred to as MUTATION are usually due mistakes during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substances). Mutation can be of different types depending on the kind of change that occured to the nucleotide sequence. Based on this question, one of the mutation types is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.

Substitution mutation is a kind of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base replaces another in the sequence.

The option that suits an example of substitution mutation is: CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG because Guanine nucleotide replaces Cytosine nucleotide in the third CODON i.e. TAC becomes TAG.

A. The sun heats the air at the equator, followed by hot air rising and moisture condensing
ira [324]

Answer:

B. Air moves towards the poles as it cools

Explanation:

The image represent convection cell or Hadley cell is a natural phenomenon in the atmosphere that occur due to difference in the density within a body of liquid or gas. These differences in density causes rise and fall in currents.

The process in step A refers to when hot air moves up and in the step B, the hot air encounters a cold surface, it direct exchange the heat with cold surface and the air cools down and move towards the poles.

Hence, the correct answer is "B. Air moves towards the poles as it cools".
