There are several types of changes that could happen. If one of the letters of DNA were to be changed to a differnt letter, this might result in a differnt amino acid being put into the protein being synthesized. Or, changing a single letter could tell the protein to stop being made (a stop codon is formed) this would make a much smaller version of the protein. If a letter is either inserted or deleted this is called a "frame shift" mutation and this totally destroyes the message. A sudden change in the sequence of DNA could also "silence" the gene turning off transcription so that no mRNA would even be made. Or, it could enhance transcription increasing the ammount of mRNA. There are many many ways that a DNA mutation can affect mRNA, do you need anything more specific?<span>Its very simple,mRNA is kinda messenger which takes information from genetic material(DNA) which will later get translated to functional protein.The information in genetic material is in the shape of sequence of nucleotides pairs.there are four kinda nucleotides 1.adenine,2.guanine3.cytosine4.thiamine.... nucleotides lare kinda codes which get imprinted on mRNA , where thiamine is exception coz it get transcribed to uracil.
,since mRNA does contain thiamine but it has a replacement known as uracil.So its very simple if there will be any change in nucleotide the information given to mRNA will also change .So u see sudden change in nucleotides will mean that information send to mRNA will get changed.other things getting affected would be protein.</span><span>.As mRNA will later translate this information to make proteins from amino acids</span>

what role does fact finding play in the arbitration and mediation process between labor and management
maks197457 [2]

Mediation is the process of two conflicting groups coming together to find a middle term. It is at times the negotiation with the difference and it is normally supervised by a person in authority who oversees and leads the processes.  If the mediation fails them the conflict is placed under arbitration.  The process of arbitration is fully directed by an arbitrator who has same powers as the judge but is limited to the conflict that is being solved. The arbitrator is there to impose a final decision or come up with the resolution to the conflict in the fairest way. He should follow justice after listening to both conflicting side. The arbitrator is not there to find the middle term to be agreed by the two sides.

vagabundo [1.1K]
There are many types of natural selection like direct selection, disruptive selection and stabilizing selection.
The situation given is that a population of mice lives in a city. The largest mice tend to be killed by predators and the smallest mice cannot compete for food.
The type of selection here is stabilizing selection. It is a type of natural selection in which there is decrease in genetic diversity as the population stabilizes.
