How a mutation in the DNA could affect the proteins made by the cell

Biology
1 answer:
Alona [7]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

mutation: does not change an amino acid, but in some cases can still have a phenotypic effect, e.g., by speeding up or slowing down protein synthesis, or by affecting splicing. Frameshift mutation: Deletion or insertion of a number of bases that is not a multiple of 3.

What is called the "building block" of life?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Cells are called the building blocks of life because they are the basic unit for all living organisms, and must be present for life to exist. ... The tiny parts of each cell are called organelles, which means "little organs" in Latin. Each cell in the human body is a small and simple form of life.

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 .

You are on a field trip and are recording the amount of mass in a volume of water. What are you measuring?
34kurt
The correct option is "D", "<span>The density of seawater".
As you are measuring the</span><span> amount of mass in a volume of water and if we look at the definition of density, it is the mass per unit volume.
D = m/v
where m is the mass of an object and v is the volume.
Thus, d is the correct option.</span>
