some bugs can walk on the surface of water because the atteraction between water molecules is strong enough to hold us the bug.

What do we call the attraction?
Biology

Ymorist [56]3 years ago

Answer:

Surface Tension

Explanation:

It is the combination of the legs not being wetted and the surface tension. The legs of water striders are hydrophobic. Water molecules are strongly attracted to one another. This is due to "hydrogen bonding": a proton in water is shared between two oxygen atoms of two water molecules.

A particular cell has a mutation that causes it to make defective centromeres. What would you expect to occur during mitosis?
BigorU [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is D Sister Chromatids may not attach to each other.

Explanation:

Centromeres are the specific point to which the sister Chromatid binds.That means Centromere function to hold the sister Chromatids.

        Now according to the question if mutation causes formation of defective centromere then the normal functioning of that centromere will be hampered.

         As a result the sister chromatid may not attach to each other.

Aproximately 30% of substitution mutations result in no change in the genetic code, why?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

1. A mutation that causes changes in the amino acid sequence downstream of the mutation is called FRAME SHIFT MUTATION. The correct option is D. A frame shift mutation is one in which the mutation is caused either by the addition or deletion of base pairs in the DNA of a gene, this results in the translation of the genetic code in the wrong reading frame starting from the position of the mutation to the end of the affected gene. Frame shift mutation result in the production of nucleotide that are not divisible by three. Because the nucleotide codons are usually pair in three, frame shift mutation causes a change in the reading frame and this result in a protein translation that is different from the original.

2. The correct option is D.

If the third base A is deleted from the codon given in the question, it will results in the formation of frame shift mutation and this will change the translation of the protein from leucine to tyrosine. The deletion will not affect the first amino acid in the sequence.

3. Albinism is a type of mutation that can is described as DELETERIOUS. The correct option is D.

Deleterious mutation refers to any type of mutation which reduces the fitness of a living organism. Albinism is a medical condition in which an individual experience a partial or total loss of skin pigmentation. The condition is a genetic disorder that is caused by lack of adequate amount of melanin pigment in the skin. Albinism causes vision loss, extreme sun sensitivity and stigma.

4. The type of mutation that occur is INSERTION. The correct option is B. Insertion is a type of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base pairs are added to a DNA sequence. The inserted base pairs can be small or large. Examples of disease conditions that resulted from insertion mutation are Huntington's disease and fragile X syndrome.

Schach [20]

Answer:

The correct answer is Single Circular DNA Molecule.

Explanation:

A bacterial genome, which is the DNA that is found in bacteria collectively, is a double stranded circular DNA. So it has no start and end like double stranded helix DNA. The option D, which is "Single Circular DNA Molecule" is correct.

I hope this answer helps.
