Switching the hemoglobin gene amino acid from glutamic acid to valine will affect the folding of the hemoglobin and this in turn will affect the function of this protein. The change will affect the way haemoglobin functions and leads to mutation.

The amino acids that make up a protein form its primary structure. A hindrance in the primary structure will affect how the protein molecule folds. The function of protein molecules is highly dependent on their shapes, so if the hemoglobin molecule's shape is distorted, it will not be able to carry out its function of transporting oxygen efficiently. <span />

How does sugar leave the phloem?
mars1129 [50]
The high turgor pressure drives movement of phloem sap by “bulk flow” from source to sink, where the sugars are rapidly removed from the phloem at the sink. Removal of the sugar increases the Ψs, which causes water to leave the phloem and return to the xylem, decreasing up

Lucia drew a diagram to compare animal cells and plant cells.
Bad White [126]

Answer:

You did not provide a diagram, but my guess would be a comparison between a plant cell and an animal cell in terms of organelles.

Golgi body is found in both plant cells and animal cells. They are responsible for packing, transporting, and modifying proteins and lipids. They store what's needed, disassemble those that are not needed, or send them off to get rid of.

The cell wall and chloroplast are found only in plant cells. The cell wall is a rigid structure that provides support to the plant cells, while the choloroplasts are sites for production of sugar.

Flagellum are generally found only in animal cells, rather than plant cells. They are used for locomotion. Since plant cells do not really need to move, they do not have a flagellum.

You can look at the venn diagram to help you out.
