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.

49 kg is the mass of the couch.

Explanation:

GPE = mgh

9800 = m * 10 * 20

9800 = 200m

m = (9800/20) = 49 m

Thenks and mark me brainliest :))

A body in simple harmonic motion has a displacement x that varies in time t according to the equation x = 5cos(π t + π/3) , wher

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

1/2 Hz

Explanation:

A simple harmonic motion has an equation in the form of

$x(t) = Acos(\omega t - \phi)$

where A is the amplitude, $\omega = 2\pi f$ is the angular frequency and $\phi$ is the initial phase.

Since our body has an equation of x = 5cos(π t + π/3) we can equate $\omega = \pi$ and solve for frequency f

$2\pi f = \pi$

f = 1/2 Hz

A converging lens has a focal length of 20 cm. An object 1 cm tall is placed 10 cm from the center of the lens. What is the heig

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: 2 cm

Explanation:

Given , for a converging lens

Focal length : $f=20\ cm$

Height of object : $h=1\ cm$

Object distabce from lens : $u=-10\ cm$

Using lens formula: $\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}$ , we get

$\dfrac{1}{20}=\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{10}$ , where v = image distance from the lens.

On solving aboive equation , we get

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{1-2}{20}=\dfrac{-1}{20}\Rightarrow\ v=-20\ cm$

Formula of Magnification : $m=\dfrac{v}{u}=\dfrac{h'}{h}$ , where h' is the height of image.

Put value of u, v and h in it , we get

$\dfrac{-20}{-10}=\dfrac{h'}{1}\\\\\Rightarrow\ h'=2\ cm$

Hence, the height of the image is 2 cm.

The brakes of a 125 kg sled are applied while it is moving at 8.1 m/s, which exerts a force of 261 N to slow the sled down. How

sammy [17]

Answer:

15.7 m

Explanation:

m = mass of the sled = 125 kg

v₀ = initial speed of the sled = 8.1 m/s

v = final speed of sled = 0 m/s

F = force applied by the brakes in opposite direction of motion = 261

d = stopping distance for the sled

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

- F d = (0.5) m (v² - v₀²)

- (261) d = (0.5) (125) (0² - 8.1²)

d = 15.7 m
