Answer:

True

Explanation:

A DNA molecule is composed of the nitrogenous bases stacked inside the two backbones made up of the phosphate and sugar molecules. The nitrogenous bases form the nucleotide which when read in the triplets called codons code for specific amino acid and then form proteins.

If we say that we have to protect the DNA than it means that we have to conserve the DNA molecule. Conserving the DNA molecule means that the sequence of nucleotide which codes for specific proteins must be conserved as it is the protein molecule that is essential for survival.

Thus, true is correct.

Sickle cell anemia illustrated in the picture below is the result of a mutation. What is the likely cause of this genetic mutati
Step2247 [10]

There's no picture.

Sickle cell anemia results from a mutation in a gene called HBB, which contains the blueprint for cells to make part of a protein called hemoglobin. The hemoglobin protein is made up of two alpha chains and two beta chains.

Sickle cell anemia is the result of a point mutation, a change in just one nucleotide in the gene for hemoglobin. This mutation causes the hemoglobin in red blood cells to distort to a sickle shape when deoxygenated. The sickle-shaped blood cells clog in the capillaries, cutting off circulation.

Who developed protein crystallography and discovered the structure of vitamin b12?
erica [24]

Dorothy Mary Crowfoot Hodgkin was the first to develop protein crystallography and she won Nobel Prize for that discovery ( third woman to win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry).  Hodgkin confirmed the structure of penicillin but also realized the structure of vitamin B12 by x-ray crystallography analysis. She advanced the classical technique of X-ray crystallography.
