Answer: The give alter initial amino acid sequence.

Explanation:

Mutation is sudden heritable change in DNA sequence it can be inherited from parents by offspring. When mutation affects DNA sequence it could bring about deletion of important base sequence, insertion of new base sequence or frameshift leading to formation of entirely new base sequence and amino acid. This new sequence is a mutation and it could give rise to abnormalities in the body system. Evolutionary changes is as a result of accumulation of mutations, aneamia is also an example of mutation in human.

Answer:

This probably because they destroy a given character or give rise to a new one.

Explanation:

 Alteration here are the permanent changes found in the DNA structure. And are totally inheritable. An example is the case of sickle cell anaemia and haemophilia. People with this anaemia trait hardly live and reproduce even though they do not show ill effects.

 Therefore, this mutation alteration is harmful because they destroy a given character.

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

In the process of photosynthesis, trees tend to take up carbon dioxide and water and convert it into oxygen and glucose. In this way, trees help in reducing the amount of carbon dioxide from the air which is otherwise a source of global warming. The process of photosynthesis also yields oxygen which is beneficial for life on earth.

The trees also store carbon inside them hence, reducing global warming. The more the trees, the more will be the chances of carbon being reduced from the atmosphere and being stored in the trees.

Plant processes like transpiration help to lower the temperature around them. Hence, more the trees, lesser will be the rise in temperature.

Three physical forces are involved in glomerular filtration: glomerular capillary blood pressure, plasma-colloid osmotic pressur
Elodia [21]

Answer: a. True

Explanation:

Glomerular filtrate is formed by the difference in force of hydrostatic and osmotic pressure. This physical force involves:

Bowman's capsule hydrostatic pressure: This includes the pressure that develops in the Bowman's capsule against the fluid to be filtrated expelled out by the glomerulus.

Glomerular hydrostatic pressure: The glomerulus is the main site of production of filtrate. It is higher than the average blood capillary hydrostatic pressure. It allows the water and solute molecules to be filtrated out of the plasma membrane.

Colloid osmotic pressure: The osmotic pressure which is generated by the large molecules is the colloid osmotic pressure. It is created by the plasma proteins. This pressure draws water from the glomerulus.
