Answer: Option A) A change in the DNA sequence.

Explanation:

Mutation is the change in the base sequence of DNA nucleotides. For example: if the codon GAG is change to GAC, you will say that mutation have caused the third nitrogenous base, guanine to become Cytosine.

Thus, mutation brings about a change in DNA sequence

If the map distance between genes J and K is 20 map units and the map distance between genes K and L is 35 map units, what is th
Maslowich

Answer:

The map distance between genes J and L is 55 map units

Explanation:

Map distance between genes J and K = 20 map units

Map distance between genes K and L = 35 map units

Map distance between genes J and L = map distance between genes J and K + map distance between genes K and L = 20 map units + 35 map units = 55 map units

What is the path of H+ions through the thylakoids
Mariana [72]

Answer and Explanation:

Hydrogen ions in the thylakoid space form an electrochemical gradient because of the difference in the concentration of protons (H+) and the difference in the charge across the membrane that they create. This potential energy is stored as chemical energy in ATP through chemiosmosis. The hydrogen ions are allowed to pass through the thylakoid membrane through an embedded protein complex called ATP synthase. Energy from the electron fuels membrane pumps that actively move hydrogen ions against their concentration gradient from the stroma into the thylakoid space. The photon causes an electron in the chlorophyll to become excited.

If a sealed balloon is filled and kept in a deep freezer for a period of time, it will shrink in size. Determine the best reason
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

The sealed ballon filled with air has a constant pressure when introduced into the deep freezer.

Using the gas law relationships, once can easily understand the outcome of this set up.

Inside the freezer, the most apparent thing is that the balloon is subjected to a rapid decrease in temperature.

According to Charles law "At constant pressure, the volume of given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature".

Since the pressure in the balloon is likely retain, the lowering of the temperature will reduce the volume of the gas and cause the balloon to shrink. The gas particles will lose their kinetic energy and move with less vigor.
