Explain why most mutations in eukaryotes are recessive

Biology
1 answer:
Dominik [7]3 years ago
6 0
There are two main reasons. First, there are introns and exons existed in eukaryotes. Introns do not contain the genetic information but are in large amount in chromosome. So, if the mutation occurs in the introns, it will be recessive. Second, one amino acid will corresponding to several base sequences. For example, UUU and UUC all represent Phe. This is called degeneracy. So if the mutation did not change the amino acid, it is also recessive.

Describe three human activities that may make slopes unstable
hoa [83]
Three human activities that may make the slopes unstable are the following:

1. Deforestation

Cutting off trees may result to loose soil since there will be lesser roots that will hold the soil together. When rain water runs off the slope, it will make the slope more unstable, resulting to mud/land slide.

2. Water excavation/extraction

This may also result to unstable slope, because the soil may sink as more water is extracted from the ground to supply the need of the growing population. In extreme cases, this may result to the formation of sinkhole.

3. Drilling of the earth
  
Drilling may result to unstable slope if is done in a landslide prone area as it will disturb the formation of rocks and soil.
