Answer:
The most likely explanation for the truncated polypeptide -due to the substitution of cytosine for adenine- is that mutation introduced a stop codon in the middle of the gene.
Explanation:
A codon consists of three nucleotides -in the RNA chain- whose order determines a specific amino acid. Not all codons code for amino acids, as there are termination codons, also called stop codons, which are UAG, UGA and UAA.
If in Manny's computer model, the substitution of cytosine by adenine produced a termination codon, the synthesis of a peptide is stopped prematurely resulting in a truncated peptide.

Answer:
Explanation:
Amphibians are group of animals that live a double life; one in water with gills and the other on land with lungs (at maturity). They include frogs, newts, salamanders etc.
Reptiles ( meaning to creep under shadow of darkness) are group of animals that possess scales. They include snakes, crocodiles, lizards etc.
Reptiles and amphibians are distantly related but share some traits including:
1. They are both poikilothermic (cold-blooded) animals i.e. their body temperature is dependent on that of the environment's.
2. They both lay eggs externally, although that of amphibians is fertilized after being layed
3. They both possess lungs for gaseous exchange, although, amphibians use gills in water.
4. Both reptiles and amphibians belongs to Chordata i.e. they both possess a vertebrae column (backbone)
5. Most reptiles and amphibians make use of the same defensive and attacking traits as a pretty and predator respectively. They employ camouflage, biting and inflating of their body size.
In this scenario, once in a target tissue, the water soluble hormones which is the answer would then bind to the intracellular receptors inside the cell membrane. Hope this is the right answer and would be of big help then.
The correct answer is Chemical. Because two substances are reacting and creating a new substance.
