<h2>Answer</h2>

The ansewer is Atomic masses

<h2>Explanation </h2>

Isotopes of an element have a same atomic number but differ in their atomic masses. Atomic number indicates a number of protons and atomic mass indicate the number of neutrons plus proton present in the atom. So atoms with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons are termed as isotopes.

Isotopes of an element will contain the same number of protons and electrons but will differ in the number of neutrons they contain. In other words,isotopes have the same atomic number because they are the sameelement but have a different atomic mass because they contain a different number of neutrons.

Answer:

The correct answer is The drug binds to the 30S small ribosomal subunit eukaryotes have 40S small sub unit.

Explanation:

Tetracycline belongs to broad spectrum antibiotic.Tetracycline is named so because it contain a derivative of four hydrocarbon rings.

Tetracycline act by inhibiting the protein synthesis process in prokatotes by binding to the small ribosomal subunit also called 30S subsunit and blocks the binding of amino acyl tRNA to the A site or attachment site of ribosome.

As eukaryotes contain 40S ribosomal subunit,it becomes difficult for tetracycline to bind with 40S ribosomal subunit of eukaryotes.

ankoles [38]

The answer is; deletion mutation

This type of mutation mostly causes a phenomenon called frameshift mutation whereby the 3-codon sequence reading frame is shifted causing the amino acids translated, downstream of the deletion site, to be altered. This can gravely affect the function of the translated proteins and result in genetic disease.
