Explain how a change in a single base pair can result in a change in the shape of a protein.

Biology
1 answer:
kaheart [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer/Explanation:

A single base pair change could change a single amino acid. This amino acid could have totally different properties to the initial amino acid. For example, a change from the codon CCC to GCC would change the amino acid from proline to alanine. These two amino acids have entirely different characteristics, and could totally disrupt the structure of a particular domain of a protein. For example, proline is rigid and has a ring structure, and alanine has a non-polar side chain and rarely participates in protein function.

Biological weathering is caused by the activities of plants and animals as they grow, nests and burrow. Chemical weathering is caused by chemical reactions rather than by mechanical means.

How did the lab activities help you answer the lesson question, "How do atmospheric conditions influence weather patterns?" What
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

In the lab, I discovered the air pressure, air temperature, and relative humidity conditions that create snow, rain, thunderstorms, fog, and clear skies. I learned that low-pressure areas usually experience snowy, rainy, and stormy weather, and that high-pressure areas usually experience either foggy or sunny weather. Knowing how these atmospheric conditions influence weather help weather forecasters predict weather patterns through maps and other information.
