A sperm cell has a tail 40 um long and a student draws it 40 mm long calculate the magnification

Biology

7 0
The formula for calculating magnification is:
Magnification = Size of drawing / Actual size
Size of drawing = 40 mm
Actual size = 40 micron meter
Convert 40 mm to micron unit: 40 * 1000 = 40,000 micron
Magnification = 40,000 / 40 = 1000.
The magnification is 1000 X.
This answer means that the drawing is 1000 times bigger than the actual size of the cell.

Which mutations is most likely to cause a phenotypic change?
melomori [17]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Which of the following mutations is most likely to cause a phenotypic change?

A) a duplication of all or most introns

B) a large inversion whose ends are each in intergenic regions

C) a nucleotide substitution in an exon coding for a transmembrane domain

D) a single nucleotide deletion in an exon coding for an active site

E) a frameshift mutation one codon away from the 3' end of the nontemplate strand

Answer: D) a single nucleotide deletion in an exon coding for an active site

Explanation:

Deletion or insertion of a single nucleotide in an axon coding for an active site is called frameshift mutation.

The sequence of codons is read during translation, in order to synthesize a amino acids chain and form a protein from the nucleotide sequence. Frameshift mutations occur when the usual codon sequence is broken by the deletion or addition of one or more nucleotides. For example, if only one nucleotide is removed from the axon sequence during the RNA splicing process, then there will be a disrupted reading frame for all codons before and after the mutation. This may result in several incorrect amino acids being introduced into the protein. Disruption in protein sequence will cause phenotypic change.

Hence, the correct option is D) a single nucleotide deletion in an exon coding for an active site .

How does the mantle affect Earth's crust?
faltersainse [42]
Earth's mantle plays an important role in the evolution of the crust and provides the thermal and mechanical driving forces for plate tectonics. Heat liberated by the core is transferred into the mantle where most of it (> 90%) is convected through the mantle to the base of the lithosphere.
