Answer:
The geocentric model held sway into the early modern age, but from the late 16th century onward, it was gradually superseded by the heliocentric model of Copernicus (1473-1543), Galileo (1564-1642), and Kepler (1571-1630). There was much resistance to the transition between these two theories.
Explanation:
Answer: B) ferns
Algae, liverworts and moss are examples of plants with no
real stems, leaves or roots and are also known as nonvascular plants. Plants
with true roots are known as vascular plants. Vascular plants have real roots, stems and leaves and contain vascular tissues.
Answer 1:
The mutation shown is point mutation.
A point mutation can be described as a type of mutation in which only a single nucleotide of a sequence is either:
The addition of the single nucleotide will cause the entire open reading frame to be changed. The amino acid sequence will change entirely from the position where the insertion mutation occurs. This is because the code for making amino acids works on a three base pattern. The reading of the three bases will be altered completely by the addition of just a single nucleotide.
Answer 2:
No, the resulting protein will not be altered.
The genetic code occurs in a linear sequence with triplet format. The change in a single base will cause the wrong amino acids to be formed. However, if the different code is common for the same amino acid then there will be no effect on the amino acid being formed.
<em>For example, the code GUA makes the amino acid Valine. If a mutation occurs and the code becomes GUU instead of GUA, then the resulting amino acid formed will also be Valine. Hence, there will be no alternation in the formation of the protein.</em>
Answer 3:
Melanoma cancer is the type of skin cancer which is associated with cancer from sun light. It is mainly caused due to the harmful ultraviolet rays which act as a mutagen.
<em>The mutations might keep coming back because although the growth have been removed, the other skin cells of the body might still have the mutation in them. As a result, growth will be seen again in the skin cells which might occur again and again. </em>

Explanation:
Answer:
The cell interior would experience higher than normal Na+ concentrations and lower than normal K+ concentrations.
Explanation:
Na+/K+ ATPase exists in two forms: Its phosphorylated form has a high affinity for K+ and low affinity for Na+. ATP hydrolysis and phosphorylation of the Na+/K+ pump favor the release of Na+ outside the cell and binding of K+ ions from the outside of the cell. Dephosphorylation of the pump increases its affinity for Na+ and reduces that for K+ ions resulting in the release of K+ ions inside the cells and binding to the Na+ from the cells.
The presence of ATP analog would not allow the pump to obtain its phosphorylated form. Therefore, Na+ ions would not be released outside the cells. This would increase the Na+ concentration inside the cell above the normal. Similarly, the pump would not be able to pick the K+ from the outside of the cell resulting in reduced cellular K+ concentration below the normal range.
A molecule is made of more than one atom of differing elements that can be simplified while an element cannot be simplified because it is only one atom of one type of element.
