During DNA replication, several natural proofreading mechanisms are in place to prevent an error from occurring. However, errors

can occur occasionally. If the error is not fixed, it becomes a genetic mutation.
How can a mutation affect protein synthesis by a cell? Do you think there are different consequences if it happens in a gamete cell (sperm or egg) versus a non-gamete cell?

Answer: Genes are responsible for coding proteins, which are needed for all of our body functions and to build our body structures. So, a mutation could affect the way a protein is made. If the error occurs in the gamete cell, it could lead to a mutation in a growing fetus. Because all cells in the body form from two fertilized gametes, this mutation may exist in all the cells of the developing baby. If it occurs in another cell, a skin cell, for example, then the mutation would be confined to the cells in the skin tone.

For the following free body diagrams identify if the forces are balanced or unbalanced. Then determine the net force if it is no
antoniya [11.8K]

In all cases, except case 1 the forces are unbalanced, and therefore, the net force is different from 0.

<h3>How forces act?</h3>

In physics, forces are balanced if opposite forces have the same magnitude, for example:

  • If two people are pulling a rope with a 5N force the forces are balanced and the rope will not move.

Based on this, from the diagrams presented only diagram 1 has balanced forces because this is the only case in which opposite forces have the same magnitude.

<h3>Let's calculate the net force in each case or the total sum of forces. </h3>

To do this, consider that forces pointing upwards and to the right are positive.

Case 1

  • Net force: 10 N + 10 N - 10 N - 10 N = 0 N

Case 2

  • Net force: 10N + 15 N - 10 N - 10 N  = 5 N
  • The direction of this object is to the right because the strongest force goes in that direction.

Case 3

  • Net force: 17 N + 17 N - 10 N - 12 N = 12 N
  • The direction of this object is to the right and upwards because these are the two strongest forces.

Case 4

  • Net force: 17N + 10 N - 10N - 12 N = 5 N
  • This object will move upwards because this is the strongest force.
