How might a gene mutation be silent, with no observable effect on a cell or an organism? A. Codons are complementary to anticodo

ns in tRNA. A gene mutation that changes a codon to its anticodon would have no observable effect on the cell or the organism. B. Many proteins are superfluous to the function of a cell. A gene mutation in a gene that encodes an unnecessary protein would have no observable effect on the cell or the organism. C. Several codons are stop codons. A gene mutation that inserts a stop codon when only a few amino acids remain in the peptide sequence would have no observable effect on the cell or the organism. D. Many amino acids are encoded by multiple codons. A gene mutation that encodes the same amino acid would have no observable effect on the cell or the organism.

Answer:

D. Many amino acids are encoded by multiple codons. A gene mutation that encodes the same amino acid would have no observable effect on the cell or the organism

Explanation:

If gene mutation does not change code (gene still encodes for the same amino acid), the same protein with its function will be produced. This is called synonymous mutation.

Silent mutations might also occur when  codon is altered to produce an amino acid with similar function as previous (e.g. leucine to isoleucine) so that the function of protein is not significantly changed.

True [87]

Answer:

1. While Biology is the study of living things, living things themselves are made up of chemical composition. Our survival is dependant on the reactions taking place inside and outside the body. Hence, to understand living things, biologists needs a good understanding of chemistry.

2. 170 pm is the radius of a Carbon Atom.

3. The vast majority of the mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus

4. Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom. This is a tiny, dense region at the center of the atom. Protons have a positive electrical charge of one (+1) and a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu), which is about 1.67×10−27 kilograms.

5. Neutrons are located with protons in the nucleus; they too exchange mesons with protons and with each other to form the strong nuclear force, but they do not have to overcome the repulsion from Coulomb forces since neutrons are not charged.

Los temas.<br> 1. ¿La Meiosis es la división propia de células?
Setler [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Al igual que la mitosis, la meiosis es una forma de división celular eucariota. Sin embargo, estos dos procesos distribuyen el material genético entre las células hijas resultantes de formas muy diferentes. La mitosis crea dos células hijas idénticas, cada una de las cuales contiene el mismo número de cromosomas que su célula madre.

Answer:

Option B: Molecule 2

Explanation:

'Equilibrium of a molecule inside and outside a cell' means that there are similar numbers of that molecule on the inside and the outside. (hence 'equilibrium')

The number of each molecule is as follows:

Molecule 1 - Inside: 3, Outside: 5

Molecule 2 - Inside: 2, Outside: 3

Molecule 3 - Inside: 1, Outside: 5

Molecule 4 - Inside: 7, Outside: 4

Therefore the correct option is option b. 2

This is because the number of molecules inside the cell and outside the cell are the closest together, most similar out of all the molecules.

Hope this helped!
