A sub-group of individuals who suffer from a particular disease exhibit a base-pair substitution in the messenger RNA for a prot

ein related to the disease. A researcher concludes that this form of the disease result is heritable. Which of the following, if true, would justify this conclusion?
a)There is no correlation between the incidence of the base-pair substitution and the incidence of the disease in the population.

b)The base-pair substitution does not change the amino acid that corresponds to the codon.

c)The same group of individuals exhibits a corresponding base-pair substitution in the DNA.

d)The base-pair substitution in the mRNA occurs in an intron.

I believe the correct answer is C. I’m sure that it isn’t A. I’m not 100% sure but I just took biology and I think the answer is C. Have a nice day

Answer:

c)The same group of individuals exhibits a corresponding base-pair substitution in the DNA.

Explanation:

Heredity is a biological phenomenon extremely linked to genetics. This process is characterized by the transmission of genetic information between parents and children, through reproduction.

This genetic information is transmitted through DNA. For this reason, some genetic errors that cause diseases and mutations are passed on to the same person in a family, since they all have extremely similar DNA.

For this reason, we can say that in relation to the question above, the researcher can conclude that the disease is hereditary when the same group of individuals exhibits a corresponding base pair replacement in DNA.

Let's say these are the choices:

A. The liquid is a pure substance because it is colorless.
B. The liquid is a mixture because its temperature rises.
C. The liquid is a pure substance because it remains liquid when cold.
D. The liquid is a mixture because it has a gas dissolved in a liquid. 

your answer is D. The liquid is a mixture because it has a gas dissolved in a liquid.

A mutation in a polypeptide with the original amino acid sequence of: Met-Ala-Gln-Arg-Glu-Leu results in a mutant with the seque
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

This question lacks options, however, it can be answered based on general understanding of the topic

The answer is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION

Explanation:

A mutation is any change that occurs in the nucleotide sequence of a gene. Mutation can be of different types depending on how it occurs. One type of mutation is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION, which is a mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is replaced by another in the sequence.

Nucleotide bases are read in a group of three called CODON. Each of these codons specify amino acid. Hence, if the nucleotide base sequence is altered during mutation, the amino acid sequence is altered likewise. In this case where the original amino acid sequence is: Met-Ala-Gln-Arg-Glu-Leu, the mutation affected the nucleotide bases coding for Arginine (Arg), hence changing it to Glycine (Gly).

This means that a base substitution mutation occured, replacing the amino acid Arginine with Glycine in the mutated sequence.
