Answer: silent mutation: a nucleotide base in a codon is replaced with a different base BUT the resulting amino acid isn’t affected.
Missense mutation: similar to a silent mutation, the only difference is that the switch of the nucleotide DOES result in a DIFFERENT amino acid
Nonsense mutation: a nucleotide base is changed, but that change results in a premature stop of translation
(Remember that after transcription, you are left with a strand of mRNA that Is then translated into a protein. The mRNA is read in increments of three nucleotide bases (A,U,G, or C) which is called a codon. That codon makes a single amino acid, and a strand of amino acids makes a protein)

Answer:
Males are XY(have one X chromosome) so, when it comes to X linked diseases, they express everything that is on that chromosome. They only need one copy. Females need 2 copies of the recessive allele in order to have the same condition.
Answer:
All living cells release energy from food molecules through cellular respiration and/or fermentation. Some cells make food molecules using light energy through the process of photosynthesis.
Two ways to cells get energy: cellular respiration and fermentation.
Fermentation: Fermentation, chemical process by which molecules such as glucose are broken down anaerobically.
Cellular respiration: Cellular respiration is the process through which cells convert sugars into energy. To create ATP and other forms of energy to power cellular reactions, cells require fuel and an electron acceptor which drives the chemical process of turning energy into a useable form.
