What is the relationship between DNA mutation and sickle-cell anemia? (1 point)

Biology
1 answer:
Likurg_2 [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A DNA mutation causes sickle-cell anemia.

Explanation:

Sickle cell anemia is caused by a single code letter change in the DNA. This in turn alters one of the amino acids in the hemoglobin protein. Valine sits in the position where glutamic acid should be. The valine makes the hemoglobin molecules stick together, forming long fibers that distort the shape of the red blood cells, and this brings on an attack.

What is the issue with fitting viruses into the classification system?
Andru [333]
<span>Viruses are not usually classified into conventional taxonomic groups but are usually grouped according to such properties as size, the type of nucleic acid they contain, the structure of the capsid and the number of protein subunits in it, host species, and immunological characteristics. This is because they don't fit well in any existing classification currently.</span>

If different masses of water are heated to the same temperature, the sample that will absorb more energy will be the mass of water with the greatest amount of water mass, because the larger the material, the greater the amount of heat needed.

<h3>What is the specific heat of water?</h3>

Water has a specific heat of 1 cal/g. ºC This means that the energy of 1 cal is required for a variation of 1 °C in 1 g of water.

With this information, we can conclude that Water's specific heat power is 4.2 joules per gram per Celsius degree or 1 calory per gram per Celsius degree.
