A device in which a chain reaction is initiated and controlled with the purpose of producing electrical power is called a nuclear reactor.

A nuclear reactor is a device that is created to control a chain reaction in order to produce a steady flow of neutrons created by the fission of heavy nuclei. Nuclear reactors are differentiated by their uses into research reactors and power reactors. The research reactors are used for conducting basic research and to produce medical isotopes for cancer treatment and imaging, while power reactors are mainly used for generating electricity.

________________________ happen when pairs of bonded bases in a double strand of DNA get replaced with different pairs.
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

A base pair is two chemical bases bonded to one another forming a "rung of the DNA ladder." The DNA molecule consists of two strands that wind around each other like a twisted ladder. Each strand has a backbone made of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups. Attached to each sugar is one of four bases--adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), or thymine (T). The two strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases, with adenine forming a base pair with thymine, and cytosine forming a base pair with guanine.
