The developer's plan would affect the salamanders that live in the woodlot by taking away their vernal pool, the lack of a vernal pool would mean that the salamanders would have no place to mate and lay their eggs. This would result in a drastic reduction of salamanders in the area.

Based on the information in the table, which of the following changes is least likely to produce a phenotypic
yaroslaw [1]

GAU to GAC​ is least likely to change phenotype of an organism.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Phenotype of an organism is defined as the physical characteristics of an organism. This phenotype is dependent on the genotype of the organisms. This means the phenotypic characters are actually the expressions of the genes of the organisms. Now the genes are expressed in form of codons that are the three nitrogen base sequences. Each codon codes for a particular amino acid which in turn polymerises to from the protein which actually forms the phenotype of the organism.

Now there are 20 amino acids and 64 codons. Thus there are more than 1 codons for a single amino acid. So, if a codon is replaced by another codon which codes for same amino acid, then the phenotype is least likely to be affected.

Both the GAU and  GAC​ codes for aspartic acid. So the phenotype won't be affected much by this mutation

Which of these microbes causes "walking pneumonia"?
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Walking pneumonia can be caused by the microbes <u>mycoplasma pneumoniae</u>  and <u>chlamydophila pneumoniae.</u>

Explanation:

Atypical pneumonia, commonly known as walking pneumonia, is a type of pneumonia which is not caused by a single pathogen or a single type of pathogen. The organisms that cause walking pneumonia are called atypical organisms. Therefore, disease can be caused by special bacteria, fungi, viruses and protozoa.

Examples of atypical organisms include: <u>chlamydophila pneumoniae</u>, chlamydophila psittaci, francisella tularensis, <u>mycoplasma pneumoniae</u>, etc.

<u>Therefore, Walking pneumonia can be caused by the microbes </u><u>mycoplasma pneumoniae</u><u>  and </u><u>chlamydophila pneumoniae</u><u>.</u>

natulia [17]
When focusing a specimen you should always start with the SCANNING objective. Scanning objective is used to put the object you want to examine in focus. After proper focusing on the object, you can now switch to power objective.
