Answer:
Sickle cell disease is due to a type of substitution mutation.
Explanation:
Sickle cell disease is a condition that is transmitted from parents to children in an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. It is due to a mutation that is capable of altering the shape of the erythrocyte, as well as its ability to circulate and carry oxygen.
The mutation that occurs in sickle cell disease is due to an alteration in the β-chain of hemoglobin, caused by the substitution of thymine base by adenine in the DNA that determines it. As a result, valine replaces glutamic acid in the β-chain amino acid sequence, with the consequences described.
- <em>The other options are not correct because </em><u><em>deletion, duplication and translocation </em></u><em>correspond to chromosomal mutations, not responsible for sickle cell disease.</em>
Answer:
To lose its function
Explanation:
Denaturation of macromolecules such as proteinc or nucleic acid, means that they lose their quaternary structure, tertiary structure, and secondary structure under the influence of a certain factor. The factors that can lead to denaturation are external stress, strong acid or base, a concentrated inorganic salt, radiation or heat. The consequence of denaturation is loss of biological activity for example, loss of the catalytic ability of an enzyme.
Answer:
Option A, Pantala flavescens, because these organisms would have a high level of genetic variation due to sexual reproduction
Explanation:
Genetics variation allows as organism to evolve in a way to be able to cope up with the existing or changing environmental condition. Now, a Pantala flavescens undergoes sexual reproduction, thus only this creature has the ability among all the given organism to evolve genetically and be able to survive in this environment. All the remaining organisms reproduce asexually and hence there is no variation with in them and hence it would be difficult for these organisms to cope up with changing environment.
Hence, option A is correct.
