Answer:

I started out as glucose, got converted to pyruvate, after which I got oxidised by Oxygen to become CO2

Explanation:

My name is CO2, and I started out as glucose from pure honey. I got eaten by a little child when I was two weeks old, and I had to go through the dreadful process of aerobic respiration in the child's body.

My glucose molecules were broken down into pyruvate, and I stayed that way  for a while, as I made my way to the mitochondria of the child's cells.  Once I got to the mitochondria, I met my old friend oxygen, who reacted with me to turn me into the molecule I am today - C02.

If you want to know how I escaped the child's body, that's easy - I simply snuck out his nose while he was breathing one cold dark night.

Imagine that a mutation in DNA produces a protein with a slightly different amino acid sequence. how would this mutation affect
Lynna [10]

Answer:

It would most likely render the protein nonfunctional or mis-functional.

The mutation could result in three outcomes:

  1. Silent mutation, which changes the codon to the same amino acid. (AAA->AAG, both are lysine). But since the problem specified that it has a "slightly different amino acid sequence," we can assume this doesn't happen.
  2. Nonsense mutation, which changes a codon to a stop codon. This would end the chain of amino acids, making the protein potentially nonfunctional.
  3. Missense mutation, which changes a codon to another completely different codon. This can be harmful, as in sickle-cell disease, where just one amino acid, glutamic acid, is changed to valine.
