Answer: The simplest way is to determine if a strain is mutant is observing morphology, growth rate, double time, etc but it is accurate if you can prove if the strain is deficient in one aminoacid or can't metabolize lactose, etc.
Explanation: A wildtype strain functions normally, for example, can metabolize as a carbon source, glucose, lactose and other sugars, can synthesize all the aminoacids requered for protein synthesis, etc. If a strain suffers a mutation and it is inheritable, the strain become a mutant. Since several mutations can be silent ones, only those that interfere with a process, can be assesed easyly.
For example, if you have several strains and put them in a lactose medium, but some of them cannot growth means that are lactose mutants. Those strains could carry a mutation in genes that encode lactose degrading enzymes or in regulatory genes of the lac operon, etc.
Answer:
It is a beneficial mutation.
Explanation: Mutations are permanent changes in the nucleotide sequence of a DNA. Mutations can beneficial, neutral and harmful or deleterious. When change in the nucleotide sequence of DNA a mutation enhances the effectiveness of a protein or improves the protein function, it is said to be beneficial. When a mutation causes the synthesis of a protein which have the same amino acid as the original protein and performs the same function as the original protein, it is said to be silent or neutral. When a mutation results in the synthesis of a protein with an altered amino acid sequence and a nonfunctional protein, it is said to be harmful.
Addition or deletion of nucleotides in any number besides 3 results in a "frame-shift mutation."
This is because every 3 nucleotides of DNA/mRNA exons codes for a single amino acid in the synthesis of a protein. This triplet codon theory means that if 3 nucleotides are added or deleted then an amino acid will be added or lost, but subsequent codons and amino acids will still be read correctly.
However, if any number of nucleotides other than 3 are added or removed, then the codons following the mutation will be out of "sync," in terms of the reading order.
Hence it is called a frame-shift mutation because it shift the reading frame when translating nucleic acids into proteins. Frame shifts will lead to the wrong amino acids being adding in the wrong order for the rest of the code after the mutation.
Answer:
Pine trees are conifers!
Explanation:
Your question was a bit confusing but I'm assuming you are asking which group does pine trees belong to. Hope this helps!
In meiosis, cell division will occur two times. It shall be called Meiosis I and Meiosis II. And Meiosis happens to our sex cells, egg for female and sperm cells for the male. There four stages in Meiosis I, Prophase I will happen when who homologous chromosomes exchange DNA. Metaphase I will happen when the pair move together in the center. Anaphase I is when the who homologous chromosomes are pulled apart to opposite poles. Telophase I is when the the first division of the chromosomes happen. Producing two 24 chromosomes cells. The nest division will produce haploid or 12 chromosome cells. In Propase II, the nuclear walls will disappear once again, in the Metaphase II the cells will meet again in the center. In Anaphase II the chromatids will be pulled apart. And then lastly in the Telophase II, the chromatids will not be 2 haploids. So in Meiosis, 4 sex cells are produced.
