Answer: Option D

Explanation:

An insertion mutation can be defined as the addition of one or more nucleotide base pair into a  sequence of DNA.

This can happen in the micro satellite region of the DNA due to DNA polymerase slipping.

In this case the original sequence is ACGGCATTCGTACGT, insertion A in between T shows insertion mutation.

serious [3.7K]

Out of the following given choices;

<span>A.      </span>The mouse has a completely different DNA sequence than the other mice.

<span>B.      </span> The substituted nucleotide has the same directions as the original nucleotide.

<span>C.      </span>Substitutions in the nucleotides of a mouse's DNA never affect their phenotypes.

<span>D.      </span>DNA sequences don't determine the color of a mouse's fur.

The answer is B. Most probably, the nucleotide substitution did not translate to a change in the amino acid sequence in the translated protein. As you may be aware, most amino acids are coded by more than one codon. For example, Leucine is coded for by CTT, CTC, CTA, CTG, TTA, TTG. Therefore, a substitution, that causes a change to either one of the sequences will not change the amino acid.

How does the state of plasma compare to the other states of matter?
labwork [276]
Plasma even though considered to be among the 4 fundamental phases of matter has signif different properties from the other three phases (solid, liquid and gas).
Unlike the other three, plasma doesn't naturally exist on the Earth under normal surface conditions, and can only be made under artificial conditions from neutral gases.
Plasma in simple words is a collection of ionized particles. An ionized gas is plasma. It's a collection of electrons with positively charged gaseous ions.
It is associated with the interior of the sun and other stars.
One another marked difference is that unlike the common solid-liquid-gas phase transitions, phase transitions with plasma do not take only by varying pressure and temperature.
Plasma is generated by ionizing a gas using a strong electromagnetic field and/or heating the gas to fantastically high temperatures (so high that it could melt any ordinary container; for this reason magnetic fields are used to confine hot plasma). Hope this helped :)

xxMikexx [17]
<span>Cells repair themselves through the process of cell division and mitotic process. <span>Mitosis occurs more in your body since it changes, modifies and requires cell division at maximum rate in many useful situations with the stand to a particular system and organ. Mitosis and meiosis are simply cell division processes that occurs differently, they're characteristically divergent from each other according to their function and structure.<span> 

Organelles are tiny parts of a cell, in analogy are like organs. They perform various tasks vital for a cell to survive. They deliver information, send nutrients and excrete waste and protect cells from antibodies and other microorganisms that could and possible harm the cell itself.<span> </span></span></span></span>
