Answer: Option D). a mutation.

Explanation:

Mutation is the change in the genetic composition of the cell. This change in a gene can be due to

In the models above, you labelled a cell wall and flagellum only on the bacteria cell—not the animal
Zepler [3.9K]
No. animal cells are not as mobile as bacteria, which means they don’t need a flagellum. Animal cells do not need a cell wall- as the cell wall is primarily used to maintain structure, which is needed in photosynthetic plants. please give this brainliest!

What should be done to correct positioning on an anteroposterior (AP) elbow with lateral rotation, when the radial head is sligh
natka813 [3]
<h2>Functions of elbow joint </h2>

Explanation:

  • The elbow joint should be rotated laterally.
  • This is because the elbow is basically a pivoted joint, however, it has the extraordinary capacity to turn the distal arm in pronation and supination
  • These exceptional movements, alongside a wide scope of dynamic exertional powers, incline the elbow and its structures to critical wounds, especially with tedious movements
  • Understanding the life systems and the physical powers of development will help in diagnosis
  • Hence, the right answer is "elbow joint should be rotated laterally on an (AP), when the radial head is slightly superimposed over the proximal ulna on the first effort"

What does the PCR do
schepotkina [342]

Answer: It is a technique used to amplify a segment of DNA of interest or produce lots and lots of copies. In other words, PCR enables you to produce millions of copies of a specific DNA sequence from an initially small sample – sometimes even a single copy. (looked it up on google lol)
