Biology

Answer:B.) Substitution

Explanation: Mutations are permanent changes in the nucleotide sequence of a DNA molecule. Substitution leads to a point mutation if only one nucleotide is replaced by another.

A substitution mutation occurs when one or more nucleotides in a DNA sequence is replaced by another nucleotide.

Example of substitution is in sickle cell hemoglobin in which valine replaces glutamate at position six in the two beta chains of hemoglobin. In a normal hemoglobin, the two beta chains of hemoglobin have glutamate at the sixth position but in a sickle cell hemoglobin, valine is found at position six on the two beta chains. This is also an example of a point mutation.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - explained below.

Explanation:

Heat shock proteins can help the protein to get back its natural or native form from the misfolded form and if not possible then degrade it, Therefore it is evident that fungi can grow in stress conditions such as heat in the host's environment with help of such overexpressed chaperons which refolds the protein affected in the process.

C. Auris most of the time does not respond to frequently used antifungals, due to overexpressed chaperons.
