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.

What are bio-fuels considered carbon neutral?
uranmaximum [27]
“The U.S. government considers biodiesel to be carbon-neutral because the plants that are the sources of the feedstocks for making biodiesel, such as soybeans and palm oil trees, absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) as they grow. The absorption of CO2 by these plants offsets the CO2 that forms while making and burning biodiesel.”

3. The time between the end of ventricular systole to the beginning of atrial systole.
amid [387]

Answer:

The time between the end of ventricular systole to the beginning of atrial systole is 100 ms or 0.1 seconds.

Explanation:

Ventricular systole is the removal of blood from the heart by pumping through aorta and pulmonary vein. Both aorta and pulmonary vein receive the blood from the heart. Aorta receives oxygenated blood and pulmonary vein receive deoxygenated blood, while atrial systole is the addition of blood into the ventricular from vena cava and pulmonary artery due to contraction of heart. This process occurs in 100 ms.

Thorns and small hairs on plant stems and leaves help to
Mkey [24]

The correct answer is - physically dettering herbivory, protection from frost, and minimizing evaporation.

The plants have developed multiple traits that help them in multiple different circumstances, and some of those traits are the thorns and the hairs on their steams and leaves.

The thorns primarily serve for protection of the plant. They are very sharp and give a painful sting (occasionally poisonous one), so they are a physical protection from the herbivores that would try to eat parts of the plants.

The hairs have multiple functions. They are like a coat that helps the plant to not be affected by frost, help to stop the evaporation, and also partially manage to stop most of the insects that feed on plants.
