A mutation in the DNA ca happen during growth, when the DNA splits and becomes RNA. Mutations can also occur from other invasive cells, such as bacteria or viruses. A mutation in your DNA can also be there from when you were born. These mutations can cause variations in your appearance, such as eye color, ability to see, taste, smell and the complexion of your face. The mutations can also result in variations in your growth, causing immature or late growth. These mutations are dangerous, and can result in failure of the organisms cells , to complete and utter death of an organism.

Answer:

DNA are transcribed to the aRNA and then, in turn, morphed by the tRNA, altering the protein acid chain and keeping the function of the protein, which affects the traits of the individual.

Answer:

21.7391304348 m

Explanation:

L = Initial length = 500 m

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature = 40-(-35)

$\alpha$ = Coefficient of thermal expansion = $12\times 10^{-6}\ /^{\circ}C$

Change in length is given by

$\Delta L=L\alpha \Delta T\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=500\times 12\times 10^{-6}\times (40-(-35))\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=0.45\ m$

The change in length is 0.45 m

The number of joints would be

$n=\dfrac{0.45}{0.02}\\\Rightarrow n=22.5\\\Rightarrow n\approx 23$

The number of joints is 23

Each bridge section length would be

$\dfrac{L}{n}=\dfrac{500}{23}=21.7391304348\ m$

The length of each bridge section would be 21.7391304348 m

Answer:

90.78 rev/min

Explanation:

In first place, we have to do the force balance to determine the minimum angular speed required to avoid slipping. The forces acting here are friction and the force due to circular movement, that is centripetal force. Then, we have:

$f=ma_{c}$
