Answer:

Substitution Mutation

Explanation:

It can’t be deletion or addition as the base pairs of DNA haven’t shifted to the right or left.

If they had the second sequence would have an extra/one less base pair which isn’t the case.

It can’t be an inversion, as that’s where the base pairs from the opposite DNA strands are inverted/switched.

If it was inversion, you would have had a C instead of an A for Sample 2.

This is due to complementary base pairing where guanine bind with cytosine and adenine binds with thymine.

Therefore, this only leaves substitution as a viable answer.

guapka [62]
The answer is <span> b. a process of change through time.

Evolution is a process of change through time.  It does not result in progress. Natural selection, one of the mechanisms of evolution, can result in progress and </span>cause some organisms to develop characteristics they need. But generally speaking, natural selection is not the only mechanism of evolution. Other evolutionary mechanisms, such as genetic drift, mutations, migration, can in some cases have a harmful outcome.

In which of the following situations do you think current will flow
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Source of current, force and pathway.

Explanation:

Source of current, force and pathway are the three important things needed or responsible for the current flow. A supply of electric charges (electrons) which is provided by the electric source, force of push to move the charges through the circuit and a pathway on which current flows. Without these three things, flow of current is impossible. so we can say that the situation in which all these three things are present will allow the current to flow in the circuit.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

constants.

Explanation:

Climate-controlled room are almost indoor and are kept with stable temperatures and also with stable humidity levels.

<u>In biological experiments, it used to establish constant parameters like temperature, humidity, exposure to different things, growth of organisms and etc.</u>

These rooms provide better shelf life and thus better results.
