The following DNA non-template sequence (coding sequence) is transcribed from left to right. Use the sequence to determine the t
amm1812

Answer:

(A) A transversion base substitution causing a missense mutation

(B) A transition base substitution causing a silent mutation

(C)  A transversion base substitution causing a silent mutation

Explanation:

There are two types of base substitutions, transversions and transitions. A transition is when the a purine base is substituted with another purine base or a pyrimidine base is substituted with a pyrimidine base (e.g. Purines - A to G; G to A;  Pyrimidines - C to T; T to C). A transversion occurs when a purine base is substituted with a pyrimidine base or a pyrimidine base is substituted with a purine base (e.g. A to T; C to A).

There are three main types of mutations, these are missense mutations, nonsense mutations and silent mutations. Missense mutations occur when a base is changed and the codon now codes for a different amino acid to before the mutation. Nonsense mutations occur when a base is changed and now the codon codes for a stop codon causing a premature stop of the translation process. Silent mutations occur when a base is changed but the new codon still codes for the same amino acid as before the mutation.

Is the crus at a mid ocean ridge young or old?
Anni [7]

Answer:

young

Explanation:

Most crust in the ocean basins is less than 200 million years old, which is much younger than the 4.54 billion year age of the Earth. This fact reflects the process of lithosphere recycling into the Earth's mantle during subduction.
