If a mutation results in an organism with new characteristics, what might eventually be formed?

Biology

Temka [501]3 years ago
3 0

If a mutation results in an organism with new characteristics then eventually a new species will be formed if more such mutations will continue to accumulate in the individual. Mutations result into the accumulation of variations in an individual and when such variations keep on accumulating in a particular organism consistently it leads to formation of a new species or we can say that evolution has occured.

Which organelle packages and distributes proteins that are received from the endoplasmic reticulum?
sleet_krkn [62]
<span>The Golgi-Apparatus is the organelle that packages and distributes proteins that are received from the endoplasmic reticulum. It can be found in most eukaryotic cells, and was named after the Italian scientist Camillo Golgi who identified it in 1897. It is an important organelle whose function is also to process proteins for secretion, among other things. </span>

All mentioned complexes (receptor-hormone, antibody-antigen, enzyme-substate) are involved in a molecular recognition.The molecular recognition involves <span>non-covalent </span> interaction between molecules. To form complex, molecules must be complementary in shape and charges, and usually, they are compared to key and lock. This way, the selectivity and specificity of recognition between molecules are assured.

Can anybody answer this
NARA [144]

Answer:

Options A, B, E, and F are correct

Explanation:

A). In the cell cycle, DNA replication is a process by which a duplicate DNA strand is produced with the help of replication machinery (enzymes, nucleotides, etc.). The overall process ensures that the newly developed strand is free of any mutations (errors) causing the production of wrong proteins at later stages. Although, there are chances of positive, negative or neutral mutations, the replication machinery aims to avoid any such errors at this stage.

B). DNA stores genetic information in the form of codes (known as codon) which needs to be translated in the form of proteins. This process is known as a transcription by which messenger RNA (mRNA) is produced in the nucleolus. Thereon, it is transported outside to encode proteins with the help of ribosomes. The process of copying genetic information on DNA in the form of mRNA is known is transcription.

E). The figure shown is also known as the central dogma of life. According to which, DNA (genetic information) is transcribed into RNA, which is then translated to proteins. In brief, RNA molecules brings the information from nucleous to ribosomes and make proteins. These proteins are often enzymes, hormones, and other biomolecules that perform the important functions in living organisms.

F). DNA and RNA are two types of nucleic acids responsible for all types of life on Earth. Since both of them are well recognized as nucleotides, they are made up of the same genetic building blocks known as nucleotides. Further, each nucleotide is comprised of a five-carbon sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base. The sequence of these nucleotides is responsible for the production of specific types of proteins.
