Copper deficiency is a rare disease that leads to hematological disorders. It is an essential trace element. It is an essential part of some enzymes (c0-factor) that plays role in cellular respiration. Copper is also an anti-oxidant that scavenges free radicals. In case of cellular respiration copper is responsible for electron transfer of oxygen.

MRNA: AUG AAU UUA GCG ACA
polypeptides: Met or start, Aan, Leu, Ala, Thr
1. The type of mutation that occurred in this strand of DNA is deletion. This may have happened because a small part of the DNA sequence was lost when broken ends were rejoined when the DNA was being repaired. 
2. It is not likely that these mutated genes could produce a working protein because the polypeptides were completely changed, which would cause the protein to not work properly.
3. When a seed first absorbs water, it begins to grow. The mutation could cause the plant to be unable to absorb water. Therefore, the plant would be unable to germinate.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

<h2>Interphase : divided into three phases, i) G1 phase, ii) S phase and iii) G2 phase.</h2><h2>Mitotic phase: i) prophase, ii) metaphase, iii) anaphase and v) telophase.</h2>

Explanation:

interphase : divided into three phases, i) G1 phase, ii) S phase and iii) G2 phase.

G1 phase: cell decide whether to divide or not and prepare itself for replication of DNA and arrange replication machinery.  otherwise it goes to G 0 phase.

S phase: DNA replication occurs in this phase.

G2 phase: cell duplicates all their contents and prepares for mitotic phase.

Mitotic phase:

i) prophase- chromosome condensation occurs,

ii) metaphase - chromosome arranges in meta-plate and spindle binds to each chromosomes  at centromere.

iii) anaphase- chromosome separates from sister chromatids.

iv) telophase- chromosome moves to each ends and formation of nuclear membrane begins.

cytokinesis:  there is division of cytoplasm and forming two daughter cells.
