Answer:

A mutation, which may arise during replication and/or recombination, is a permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of DNA. Damaged DNA can be mutated either by substitution, deletion or insertion of base pairs. Mutations, for the most part, are harmless except when they lead to cell death or tumor formation. Because of the lethal potential of DNA mutations cells have evolved mechanisms for repairing damaged DNA.

Types of Mutations

There are three types of DNA Mutations: base substitutions, deletions and insertions.

1. Base Substitutions

Single base substitutions are called point mutations, recall the point mutation Glu -----> Val which causes sickle-cell disease. Point mutations are the most common type of mutation and there are two types.

Transition: this occurs when a purine is substituted with another purine or when a pyrimidine is substituted with another pyrimidine.

Transversion: when a purine is substituted for a pyrimidine or a pyrimidine replaces a purine.

Minchanka [31]

The right answer is ultrasound.


Ultrasound is an imaging technique that uses ultrasound. It is used routinely in human and veterinary medicine, but can also be used in research and industry.


Contrast ultrasound is one that uses a contrast medium. The contrast medium composed of microbubbles is injected into the bloodstream intravenously at the time of the ultrasound examination of the patient. The microbubbles of the contrast medium are highly reflective to ultrasound during ultrasound examination; thus making it possible to image the blood vascularization of the organs for diagnostic purposes.
