Answer:

gravitational potential energy    

Explanation:

A body possess gravitational potential energy due to its position. A body in motion possess kinetic energy. From the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can change forms. When a basketball is thrown straight up into the air, its gravitational potential energy increases while kinetic energy decreases. At the highest point, the ball would have just the gravitational potential energy and zero kinetic energy.

Lynna [10]

Answer:

It would most likely render the protein nonfunctional or mis-functional.

The mutation could result in three outcomes:

  1. Silent mutation, which changes the codon to the same amino acid. (AAA->AAG, both are lysine). But since the problem specified that it has a "slightly different amino acid sequence," we can assume this doesn't happen.
  2. Nonsense mutation, which changes a codon to a stop codon. This would end the chain of amino acids, making the protein potentially nonfunctional.
  3. Missense mutation, which changes a codon to another completely different codon. This can be harmful, as in sickle-cell disease, where just one amino acid, glutamic acid, is changed to valine.

Paul had chicken pox when he was 5 years old. nicholas received the chicken pox vaccines. which type of immunity does each man h
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Paul has natural active immunity, while Nicholas has artificial active immunity.

Explanation:

Natural active immunity is an immunity that occurs when an individual is exposed to a disease causing organism, gets infected, and also become immune to the disease due to the primary immune response. From the question, Paul has natural active immunity because he had chicken pox before, and the virus that causes chicken pox has interacted with his immune response, hence, making him to develop natural immunity to the disease.

Artificial active immunity is an immunity that an individual acquires when small amount of immunity to a disease is deliberately exposed to his body. Artificial active immunity is usually produced in the form of vaccinations. From the question, Nicholas has artificial active immunity because chicken pox vaccines were intentionally introduced to his body.
