Answer:

D. GGACCGTCGATCCTT

Explanation:

Mutation refers to any change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene. Mutation can be of different types depending on how it occurs. According to the question, an INVERSION mutation is a type of mutation in which a segment of a gene gets broken off and reattached in another way on the same DNA. Hence, the only change in inversion mutation is the arrangement of the nucleotide bases on the gene.

Considering the nucleotide sequence: GGACCGTCGATCTTC, the sequence that describes an occurrence of inversion mutation is: GGACCGTCGATCCTT because the segment TTC in the original sequence has been rearranged as CTT in the mutated sequence.

iren [92.7K]
The surface area to volume ratio of the cell decreases.
This decrease is due to the fact that the volume of the cell increases at a greater rate than the surface surrounding the cell, the cell membrane, increases. This change is also visible when we are blowing up a balloon. 

When considering the cell division, the ratio remains roughly the same. It is advantageous for the cell to preserve its surface area to volume ratio, since a higher ratio means that substances are able to diffuse into and out of the cell at a fairly higher rate.
