What is the component of red blood cells responsible for oxygen transport?

Biology
1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago

<span>There's one important component in red blood cells called hemoglobin, a special protein. Its function is to aid the transport of oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body and the movement of carbon dioxide back to the lungs so it can be breathed out. Another interesting fact about hemoglobin is that it is responsible for the red color of the red blood cells.</span>

A part of an mRNA has the sequence GGA. Which change to the sequence would indicate a missense mutation
MissTica

Answer:

A replacement of a letter with different letter would indicate a missense mutation. (eg. GGA would become something like GCA and it would make something completely different).

Explanation:

A missense mutation is when the RNA replicates the instructions wrong from the DNA. When RNA is transcribed to make amino acids, it will make a completely different amino acid rather than the one that is needed/blueprinted. For example, if the sequence was AAG in the RNA (Derived from TTC DNA), it would create Lys amino acid. However, if the RNA sequence was AGG (Derived from abnormal TCC DNA), it would make Arg amino acid, which is different.

K-selected species are also called equilibrium species. <br> a. True <br> b. False
olga_2 [115]
The answer is True. These species do well in stable environment. They have a long life span and produce few offsprings in their lifetime. Their offspring are large and more energy is invested in the individual rather than the numbers. Individuals can reproduce more than once in their lifetime unlike r-selected species that reproduce once.
