Answer: 2).it will result in an incomplete protein that does not function properly

Explanation: Mutations are permanent changes in the nucleotide sequence of a DNA. A mutated DNA sequence will give rise to an mRNA molecule with an altered nucleotide sequence and consequently lead to the synthesis of a nonfunctional protein with an altered amino acid sequence.

Amino acids are coded for by three nucleotide sequences called codons. There are 64 universal codons, 61 of them code for amino acids while 3 of them do not code for any amino acid and are called stop codons. Translation occurs when the ribosome encounters a stop codon in an mRNA.

When UAC codon is replaced by UAA codon in an mRNA sequence, protein synthesis will stop because UAC codes for tyrosine while UAA is a stop codon that do not code for an amino acid. This will result in an incomplete nonfunctional protein.

select one of the main body systems and explain why it is essential to keep the whole body functioning

Circulatory system: 

--The circulatory system is also known as the cardiovascular system. 
-- It is composed of the heart, blood, blood vessels and also includes the lungs. 

The primary function of the circulatory system to distribute oxygen, nutrients, hormones and other gases to cells of the other body systems. It delivers all the necessary components needed for all the cell activities. Without the circulatory system, we would not be alive. 

It is our blood that carries these necessary nutrients, hormones, and oxygen. All these components trigger certain processes that keep other organs functioning. It also plays a role in eliminating waste by carrying them to the necessary organs that will filter them out. Without a way to dispose of waste, the body will eventually die.
