The third codon (three bases) in the sequence was mutated from GAT to AAT. The GAT codon translates to the amino acid aspartic acid. The AAT codon translates to the amino acid asparagine. This is what's called a point mutation, specifically a missense mutation since the translated amino acid is changed. Deletion and inversion mutations are not the answer because these mutations involve the chromosomes as a whole, not just bases. Frame shift mutations occur when 1 or 2 (but not 3) bases are added or deleted from the sequence causing an array of point mutations (domino effect).

Chromosomes control cell processes. They do this by____
GarryVolchara [31]

<u>Answer</u>:

Chromosomes control cell processes by coding for the production of all a cell's proteins.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Chromosomes are the complex structures that are made up of DNA and attached histone proteins that stabilize the nucleosome structure. DNA is made up of a sequence of polynucleotides that encodes the genetic information of that organism.

The combination of three nucleotides known as triplet codon provides a unique code for a particular amino acid. After transcription of the DNA sequence into mRNA, it is sent to the cytoplasm of the cell to be translated into a particular protein. There are many proteins in a cell each having different sequence and hence they differ in their folding which give them a particular structure to perform a particular activity. Hence different DNA sequences encode the information for different sequences of amino acid in a polypeptide chain which makes the protein.

How do the geography and geographical features of your area affect the temperature?
kogti [31]

Answer:

An area's latitude on the surface of the Earth affects the weather because it changes the intensity of the sun's light that the area receives. Things like mountains affect the weather by directing air currents, which can send storms to you, or keep them away. If you live in a place with lots of vegetation, it will be more humid, and warmer, because the plants retain the heat.

Within each eon, identify major events and the types of life that dominated the Earth during the time.​
blagie [28]

There has been two eons in the Earth's geologic history so far, the Precambrian eon, and the Phanerozoic eon. The eons are the basic and by far longest units on the geological time scale, spreading over hundreds of millions of years.

The Precambrian eon is the eon that starts with the formation of the Earth, up until the development of multi-cellular organisms. A very important event in this eon can be considered the formation of the Earth's oceans, which later enabled the conditions for the development of life. The organisms that dominated this eon are the one cellular organisms.

The Phanerozoic is the eon in which the multi-cellular organisms started to develop and evolve. This eon started with the end of the Precambrian eon, 543 million years ago up until the present. A very important event in this eon is the change of the composition of the atmosphere, which enabled the terrestrial life, as well as the better living conditions for the marine life. It is very hard to choose a dominant form of life in this eon, but worthy of mentioning are the plants, the sinapsids, dinosaurs, mammals, fish.
