Answer:

Substitution, missense mutation

Explanation:

Mutation is a change in the DNA sequence that can subsequently alter the genetic message.

Substitution mutations occurs when a base is replaced with another different base.

A good example is the one given in the question where the third A in the sequence ACAAAC is replaced by a T.

If this kind of mutation occurs in a protein-coding gene, it will be classified as a frameshift mutation.

Missense mutation is caused when there is a change in a single nucleotide that results to the coding of a different Amino acid

Answer:

Substitution mutation and missense mutation respectively.

Explanation:

Mutation is any heritable change of the base-pair sequence of genetic material.

Substitution mutation often affects only a single codon.

The question shows that ACAAAC. is changed to ..ACATAC ... We see that the 4th nucleotide A is changed to T. This shows the substitution that happened.

Their effect of substitution may not be serious except they affect an amino acid essential for the structure and function of the finished protein molecules an example is the sickle cell anaemia resulting from a missense mutation.

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

*The two cellular structure that work together to synthesize, modify and transport macromolecules within the cell is endoplasmic reticulum and golgi apparatus.

*The endoplasmic reticulum is a synthesis and transport organelle that branches into the cytoplasm in the plant and the animal cell.

*The golgi apparatus is a multi compartmentalized organelle where where the synthesized molecules are packaged for delivery to the other cell components or for the secretion from the cells.

Which of the following is an example of adhesion in organisms
12345 [234]

Adhesion is defined as a component of water ,  an attraction that occurs between two different substances like water and the cell walls of plant cells.

For instance:

 A tree requires to be able to transport water  from the roots to the leaves atop the tree over a long distance. The Water molecules will stick to the xylem in the method called as adhesion.
