elements are pure substances composed of only one kind of atom. An example that is present in the body is oxygen which is present in the lungs and also in the blood. Compounds are composed of different types of atoms which differ in ratio from one to another. an example is water. The two terms are different in structure and hence the properties.

You have identified two mutants with same phenotype.
algol13

Answer:

No, there are multiple ways in which different mutations in the same gene can cause the same phenotype

Explanation:

Several different mechanisms of mutation can lead to the same phenotype. For example, lets say our phenotype is that flies have white eyes, and we know that this occurs in one particular gene that normally makes the eye colour red. (the red gene)

These mutations likely rendered the red gene ineffective (as the eyes are not red). However, this could happen in a variety of ways.

  • There could be a single base deletion in the first exon of the mRNA, changing the reading frame of the protein and messing up the entire sequence (a frame shift mutations)
  • The entire gene could be deleted
  • A single base could be substituted in an important site of the gene, for example, one which translates into a catalytic residue or binding site in the protein
  • There could be an inversion at the promoter region of the gene, such that a transcription factor can no longer bind to transcribe the gene.

There are countless other ways in which a mutation could have been caused. Therefore, just because we know the same gene is affected does not mean that we can assume the mutations are identical.

In general, the land changes temperature much more rapidly than the ocean. How does this fact explain the existence of land bree
Greeley [361]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Land and sea breeze are produced because the land changes temperature rapidly than the ocean. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>The rates of heating up of land and sea are different. Land gets heated up faster than water. Temperature is crucial in determining the density of air. </em>

When land gets heated up the air near the land turns hot and this temperature is greater than the temperature of the air near the water surface. <em>Hotter air has less density than the air which is relatively less warm. Density difference creates pressure difference. </em>

Denser air has higher pressure than less dense air making air move from area of high pressure to area of low pressure. During the day<em> the land is heated up more and thus air move from sea to land and it is called sea breeze. </em>Just like it absorbs heat land releases heat at a faster rate.  

<em>Thus at night land the sea will be warmer than the sea and thus air will move from the land to the sea and it is called land breeze. </em>
