Biology
1 answer:
Phantasy [73]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A

Explanation:

All living organisms ranging from unicellular prokaryotes to multicellular eukaryotes contain genetic material (DNA). This genetic material is usually found on structures called CHROMOSOMES. Although, the chromosomes are contained in the genome of all living organisms, there are differences.

The genetic material of the bacteria (a typical prokaryote) is a single DNA molecule that makes up its single circular chromosomal material, unlike in eukaryotes that contains double-stranded DNA molecules on linear chromosomes. This single circular chromosome of bacteria is found naked in a region of their cell called NUCLEOID, as they do not possess a membrane-bound nucleus that houses it (a unique characteristics of eukaryotes).

The mitochondrial and Chloroplast DNA mentioned in the other options are all components of eukaryotic cells. Bacteria, as a prokaryote does not contain this organnelles. Hence, they are not single replica.

Why is a frameshift missense mutation more likely to have a severe effect on phenotype than a nucleotide-pair substitution misse
Aneli [31]

Explanation:

A single nucleotide-pair substitution missense mutation causes a change of a single amino acid into another. Aa a result, the produced protein will have an almost normal sequence except for one amino acid.

On the other hand, a frameshift mutation changes the Open Reading Frame (ORF) of the ribosome. The ribosome moves along the mRNA every three nucleotides (codons) and translates them into amino acids that will form the nascent protein. If there is a frameshift mutation (an insertion or deletion of a number of nucleotides not multiple of three) the ribosome will "read" the mRNA differently and will identify different codons than the wild-type sequence, so a large number of amino acids will be different in the mutated protein.
