Mutation is made once in every thousand nucleotides copied. 

Mutation creates different versions which have the same genes which are known as alleles.
They create variation in protein-coding. We put sunscreen to protect us from a mutation in somatic cells.

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is 10 billion nucleotides.

Mutation can be defined as the permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of the genome. It can be caused due to error in the DNA replication or a DNA damage, which can be caused by several reasons like exposure to radiations.

A mutation is made once in every 10 billion nucleotides copied.

This is because the overall error rate of the enzyme DNA polymerase is 10⁻¹⁰ per base pairs. This means that there is a chance of one mutation in every 10 billion nucleotides that are replicated.

Naily [24]

Answer:

The students with the purple shirts are moving through the gym doors most often.

Explanation:

  • The students with the purple shirts represent potassium ions
  • Potassium ions move freely across the membrane by passive transport and are important in maintaining membrane potentials
  • The movement of sodium ions is through active transport therefore this is a process that requires energy (ATP) and thus these ions are less likely to move across the membrane often

Two directly transmitted viral disease have the same basic reproduction number (r0), even though their dynamics are different. W
ioda

The difference between the two diseases that could lead to the same basic reproduction number is : One disease has lower transmission rate and a longer recovery period than the other. ( B )

Basic reproduction number ( r0) represents the number of people who gets infected through an infected person, and for a disease to be highly infectious its ( r ) number will have to higher than 1. and The value of r0 is determined based on certain factors which are :

  • The Infectious period
  • contact rate and mode of transmission

Therefore for the  two viral diseases to have the same basic reproduction number one of the disease will have a lower transmission rate and a longer recovery period than the other
