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.

Compare surface, subsurface, and placer mining in terms of damage to the environment.
vfiekz [6]
Surface mining, which is also known as strip mining, is when soil and rock overlaying mineral deposit is removed. It can cause habitat destruction, air pollution from dust particles, soil erosion and pollution. Subsurface mining is removing deposits from the Earth by drilling underneath layers of rock and dirt. To keep the pathways clear, <span>mining companies have to pump out large amounts of water, which go into surface ecosystems. That disrupts the ecosystem by changing the pH conditions of soil and water sources. Placer mining is mining of stream bed deposits for minerals, a way of obtaining minerals and metal resources. Although, because it is small, causes less damage to the surrounding environment it still can disrupt river ecosystems with pollution and sediments. 
 

I hope this helps!!

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The ability of species of living beings to overproduce offspring

Explanation:

Darwin proposed that species have the ability to produce offspring at a rate that could cause a geometric increase in the population size. This is called biotic potential. The overproduction of offspring causes intraspecific competition for the limited available resources. Darwin reasoned that the overproduction of progeny leads to a struggle for existence between the individuals of a population. He observed that the struggle for existence does not allow the population size of species to grow geometrically.

How are the molecules in photosynthesis and cellular respiration similar?
WARRIOR [948]

The two processes are similar in that they both produce energy, albeit in two different forms. They are different in that photosynthesis assembles the glucose molecule, while cellular respiration takes it apart
