Answer:

The correct answer is ''The scientific study of heredity''

Explanation:

Genetics is a branch of biology that studies how hereditary characters are transmitted from generation to generation and the diversity that exists among living beings. Inheritance is the physical and biological characteristics that we share with our family and that can determine our appearance and our biological characteristics, that is, our phenotype (eye color, skin type, etc.) as well as our internal characteristics. All of this is largely derived from our genetic components, that is, our genotype.

explain where the energy to cook food comes from when a gas stove burns natural gas, CH4, and oxygen, O2.
MrRissso [65]

The natural gas is composed of methane, butane, propane and a small amount of iso-Butane.

These all are organic compound (alkanes) and burn in presence of the oxygen to give carbon dioxide. The burning of the alkanes is type of exothermic reaction, which means they liberate heat energy on reaction. The enrgy is released due to the braking of the bond and the formation of the new bonds.

Hence, it can be concluded the chemical taking place at the time of burning of these gases gives off the energy.

Predict the effects of the following types of gene mutations on the protein encoded by that gene (your answer can be just a few
o-na [289]

Answer:

Nonsense mutation: it causes a premature stop codon, so the protein cannot be fully synthesized.

Missense mutation: it causes change on the aminoacid encoded, so it can cause a change in the protein structure if the new aminoacid doesn't have the same chemichal properties as the original.

Synonymous (silent) mutation: it causes no change, the same aminoacid is encoded.

Single nucleotide insertion or deletion: changes the entire structure of the protein because it shifts the reading frame.

Three nucleotide deletion: one aminoacid will no longer be part of the protein, if this aminoacid was located, for example, on the active site of an enzyme, the protein could lose its function.

Chromosomal translocation: it can break a gene in two, causing the protein to no longer be able to be synthesized, or it can change the transcription regulation because it is now under the effect of other regulating sites that result in a different transcription pattern.
