olga2289 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be mitosis or M phase.

Mitosis or M phase is the cell cycle phase in which nuclear contents of the parent cell is equally divided into two daughter cells.

It is subdivided into four stages:

  • Prophase
  • Metaphase
  • Anaphase
  • Telophase

It is then followed by cytokinesis in which the cytoplasm or cellular components are divided into two daughter cells.

As this phase does not include synthesis or growth of a cell, it takes pretty much the same time irrespective of the cell type.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Griffith's experiment worked with two types of pneumococcal bacteria (a rough type and a smooth type) and identified that a "transforming principle"  could transform them from one type to another.

At first, bacteriologists suspected the transforming factor was a protein. The "transforming principle" could be precipitated with alcohol, which showed that it was not a carbohydrate. But Avery and McCarty observed that proteases (enzymes that degrade proteins) did not destroy the transforming principle. Neither did lipases (enzymes that digest lipids). Later they found that the transforming substance was made of nucleic acids but ribonuclease (which digests RNA) did not inactivate the substance. By this method, they were able to obtain small amounts of highly purified transforming principle, which they could then analyze through other tests to determine its identity, which corresponded to DNA.

Which of the following statements correctly describes the effect a nonsense mutation would have on a gene?a) It changes an amino
TEA [102]

Answer:

c) It introduces a premature stop codon into the mRNA

Explanation:

Nonsense mutation is a type of point mutation (single nucleotide base is changed) which leads to premature stop codon. Stop codons are also called nonsense codons and that is way this type of mutation is called nonsense mutation. As a consequence, synthesized protein is incomplete and shorter than it should be (truncated protein), usually nonfunctional.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) Diane will have to travel a farther distance to move the chair.</em>

Explanation:

To slide the chair up an inclined path, Diana would have to travel a further distance. While using the ladder to reach the second floor window would have made the distance smaller, but more force would have been required to move the chair through climbing a ladder. Diane would have got easily exhausted for moving the chair across the ladder. Using the inclined path will make the distance farther but as much force would not be required in this process. Hence, the method of using an incline is better.
