MRNA: AUG AAU UUA GCG ACA
polypeptides: Met or start, Aan, Leu, Ala, Thr
1. The type of mutation that occurred in this strand of DNA is deletion. This may have happened because a small part of the DNA sequence was lost when broken ends were rejoined when the DNA was being repaired.
2. It is not likely that these mutated genes could produce a working protein because the polypeptides were completely changed, which would cause the protein to not work properly.
3. When a seed first absorbs water, it begins to grow. The mutation could cause the plant to be unable to absorb water. Therefore, the plant would be unable to germinate.

Drag the appropriate classes of matter into the boxes below to answer each question.

As you can see in the picture presented below, the three classes of water have distinctive traits.
Pure substances contain only one element, they are not mixtures of different things.
The homogeneous mixtures have multiple elements, but they are so well blended together that you can't easily observe or separate them.
In heterogeneous mixtures, we can easily differentiate between different elements of the mixture.

What will a hypothesis become if supported by repeated expermentation

Dovator [93]

Answer:

Answer: The correct answer is- Theory.

Hypothesis can be described as an assumption or proposition, which is made on the basis of certain evidences without knowing the real truth about it. It is tested further for investigation about the proposed explanation with the help of repeated experiments (using certain protocols).

When it becomes supported by repeated experimentation, it is converted into theory.

Thus, theory is the right answer.
