Answer:
The correct answer is: a.
Explanation:
- A Diploid organism possess two copies ( also called alleles) of each autosomal gene, of which one copy of the gene is obtained from one of its parents and the other copy from its other parent.
- During the process of replication, one of the alleles of the GTPase encoding gene undergoes a mis-sense mutation.
- A Mis-sense mutation can be defined as a non-synonymous mutation in which one of the nucleotide in the sequence of the gene gets altered such that it causes a change in the amino acid encoded by the codon (triplet nucleotide message encoding for a single amino acid) formed by the mutated nucleotide. A single amino acid change in the protein, if occurs in the functional site of the protein, can render a protein non-functional.
- Hence, the mis-sense mutation in one of the alleles encoding for the GTPase gene causes the resulting protein produced from the mutated allele to have drastically reduced function (1%).
- A heterozygous cell is one which has one copy of the normal allele and the other copy of the mutated allele of the GTPase encoding gene.
- As one copy of the normal GTPase allele is present in such an individual, it can produce the normal GTPase protein that can assist in the process of cell growth and division.
- Hence, the phenotype(expressed character) of the heterozygous cell will not be affected due to the mutation and it will be able to grow and divide normally.

Fat is our natural coat produced by the over eating process. Not really sure, but it comes to mind that the layer under the skin can be the main reason for it as it prevents and keep our inner parts warm. Also the high blood flow that it demands can help by over circulating it.</span>

The tree is just starting to get flowers, nut its already come out of the ground and so its not in the seed stage, and it does not have bark yet so it cant be an adult tree
Answer:
Both are breathing muscles
Explanation:
When rib muscles and the diaphragm contract they increase the volume of the chest cavity, increasing the air pressure outside the body, causing air to rush into the lungs to fill the vacuum created by the increase in volume.
