Answer:

Fimbriae

Explanation:

Fimbriae are hair-like structures made up of proteins, that surround the outer surface of a bacterium. It helps them stick to the surfaces, tissues, and even other cells. The term fimbriae is often interchanged with pilli but pilli are longer. They are found in both gram negative and gram positive bacteria.

How the extensive regenerative power of planaria and starfish may be used as a mean of asexual reproduction
Ostrovityanka [42]
<span>Planaria have a huge regenerative power because of the presence of adult stem cells called neoblasts. If you cut Planaria into pieces, each piece can regenerate into a complete organism and that’s a form of asexual reproduction. Cells which are located on the wound site proliferate to form a blastema-mass of cell that will grow into a new organ. Those cells will differentiate into new tissues and regenerate the missing parts.</span>
<span>The similar thing is happening with starfish.</span>

Insertion and deletion mutations are said to cause shifts in the reading gram of the mRNA. Substitution mutations do not cause t
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Explanation:

A frameshift mutation  is an insertion or deletion in a sequence of DNA which disrupts the way the code is read. It occurs when the codons undergo a disruption through the deletion or insertion of one or multiple nucleotides (given that the number removed or added are not multiples of 3) - this alters the open reading frame; the amino acids produced through translation simply occur in a different sequence.

Further Explanation:

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes. There are two types:

  • somatic: these only occur within certain cells, and arise from environmental factors such as UV light
  • hereditary: occur within germ cells of the parent and later the fertilized egg which forms a zygote; these are present within all cells of the new organism.
