<h2>The changes that do not affect the function of a protein are called silent mutations.</h2>

Explanation:

As given here as a mutation occurs in an original DNA template that changes the DNA, by transcription this mutation passes into RNA and changes the RNA, but it does not change the protein sequence, it means that this mutation could be silent mutation.

Silent mutation is the mutation which cause the change of a base in that, after the mutation the codon codes for the same amino acid, or the amino acid which do no cause any change in the protein, hence these changes do not affect the function of a protein.

salantis [7]

Answer:

el enunciado hace referencia a estructuras análogas

Explanation:

La estructuras análogas (por ejemplo, órganos, tejidos, etc) son aquellas que cumplen la misma o similares funciones pero que poseen un origen evolutivo distinto (es decir, no comparten un antepasado común) y son producto de la convergencia evolutiva. Por el contrario, estructuras homólogas son aquellas que se caracterizan por tener un origen evolutivo común (comparten un antepasado común), independientemente de la función que cumplan. Las estructuras análogas se caracterizan por tener diferentes orígenes embrionarios y planes de construcción distintos (es decir, las células que dan origen a este tipo de estructuras son de linajes diferentes). Un ejemplo bien conocido de estructuras análogas son las alas de mariposas y murciélagos, las cuales cumplen la misma función pero no derivan de un antepasado común.
