A particular protein (Vac8) found in yeast has this N-terminal sequence, Met-Gly-Ser-Ser-Cys.... The corresponding DNA sequence

in the coding strand is 5' ATG GGC TCA TCG TGC.... If the DNA sequence is mutated to 5' CTG GGC TCA TCG TGC..., what will happen to this VAC8 gene? (in RNA, CUG codes for Leu)

Answer:

The protein will not be synthesized because this point mutation produces the loss of the start codon (substitution of Met by Leu).

Explanation:

The mutations are changes in the DNA sequence that have diverse effects on protein synthesis. A mutation in the start AUG codon may lead to the reduction and even the elimination of protein synthesis. In consequence, this type of point mutation is usually referred to as 'start-loss mutation'.

Can someone please help me with 1 evolution question ?
geniusboy [140]
Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.

Scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) use mathematical computer-based models to help manage m
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

A). The model does not predict energy flow.

Explanation:

As per the given details, the most probable constraint of using 'numerical computer-built models' would be their 'inability to forecast the energy that is flowing throughout the ecosystem.' However, they assist in offering collected information at the same time yet <u>its failure to predict the actual amount of energy flowing that will lead to a failure to predict if the ecological balance is being maintained or not</u>. As a result, some organisms may be deprived of the appropriate food to ensure their survival and their existence on this planet might be under threat. Thus, this is the limitation of using such-technology based models and hence, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
