Light is a transverse wave and this is what describes light as a wave. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option. Light is not at all similar to water and sound. It would be a big mistake to consider light as similar to the mediums water and sound. I hope the answer helps.

Answer:

Light is a transverse wave.

Explanation:

Light is a transverse wave. Its particles vibrates or oscillates in the direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of wave.

Light wave also have both electric and magnetic field component. So, light waves are also called as electromagnetic wave. Another type of wave is longitudinal wave. In this type, the particles of wave are in the direction of propagation of wave.

Hence, the correct option is " light is a transverse wave ".

Imagine that a mutation in DNA produces a protein with a slightly different amino acid sequence. how would this mutation affect
Lynna [10]

Answer:

It would most likely render the protein nonfunctional or mis-functional.

The mutation could result in three outcomes:

  1. Silent mutation, which changes the codon to the same amino acid. (AAA->AAG, both are lysine). But since the problem specified that it has a "slightly different amino acid sequence," we can assume this doesn't happen.
  2. Nonsense mutation, which changes a codon to a stop codon. This would end the chain of amino acids, making the protein potentially nonfunctional.
  3. Missense mutation, which changes a codon to another completely different codon. This can be harmful, as in sickle-cell disease, where just one amino acid, glutamic acid, is changed to valine.
