All organisms possess a genetic system based on what
ozzi

Answer:

DNA

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid or DNA is defined as the genetic material in all the living organisms responsible for all the genetic activities in an organism.

DNA carries genetic instructions that are inherited from one generation to another generation. The DNA comprises of genes having specific genetic code that encodes the sequence of amino acid residues in proteins. DNA undergoes the process of replication and form several copies of it which are passed on to next generation.

Hence, the correct answer is "DNA".

How are ecosystems named?
almond37 [142]
<span>Ecosystems are named according to the vegetative inhabitants of the ecosystem which means that the answer is B. by the plants that inhabit the ecosystem.

Does social distancing increase or decrease your carbon footprint?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Decrease

Explanation:

The carbon footprint is <u>the amount of carbon (in terms of greenhouse gases) being emitted by human activities</u>. In a situation where <u>social distancing is encouraged, human activity would reduce significantly</u>. Very few people will be outside and the causative agents of pollution (anthropogenic) will be significantly reduced. Further, nature would be able to minimize the impacts of pollution when human activities are less than the threshold capacity.

Let's take an example of coronavirus spread globally this year. The social distancing of 2 meters has significantly reduced the number of people going outside. Ultimately, there are fewer automobiles on the roads and a few industries are running. The result is that the air quality index has been significantly improved. For example, in India, people from 300 km away, can see the Himalayan mountain range very clearly (see image attached). This has not happened in decades after modern industrialization.

Which of the following sequences shows a frameshift mutation compared to the wild-type mRNA sequence?
Butoxors [25]

Option C:

B. wild-type 5-AUGCAUACAUUGGAGUGA-3 mutant 5'-AUGCAUACAUCUGGAGUGA- 3' 

Explanation:

A frameshift mutation is a genetic mutation such that the triplet nature of gene expression by codons, the insertion or deletion occurs in such as way that it alters the complete sequence of 3 codon sets and can change the reading frame, resulting in a completely different translation from the original.

As it is pertinent to understanding that all genes are normally translated in sets of 3 codons, which typically describes and explain a unique amino acid sequence. Thus, if a frame shift mutation occurs, it can affect many amino acid sequences and finally the entire protein.  

If we look at option B:

wild-type 5-AUG   CAU  ACA  UUG  GAG  UGA-3  

mutant 5’-    AUG   CAU  ACA  UCU  GGA  GUG  A-3’  

An insertion of a base Uracil showed at the end of 3rd codon which affected and altered the whole sequence of codon triplets. This changed all next codons and finally all next amino acids will be altered.
