(i) The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of masses of the two objects. So, if the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force also gets doubled (it becomes 2 times).
If the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled. ... Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces.
The distance between the objects is doubled and tripled
Force thus becomes one-fourth of its initial force. Force thus becomes one-ninth of its initial force.
Since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. ... If the mass of both of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is quadrupled; and so on.
The position within the original arginine codon where the point mutation most likely occurred was the second nucleotide. In this case, the mutation was CGA >> CAA.
<h3>Mutations and codons</h3>
A mutation is any alteration in the nucleotide sequence of an organism.
A point mutation is a single base substitution that doesn't change the open reading frame of a given protein.
In this case, the CGA codon encodes for Arginine, whereas the CAA codon encodes for Glutamine, thereby the mutation likely occurred in the second base (C<u>G</u>A >> C<u>A</u>A)
