It depends on the weight of the sediments.
Most of the mutations have no effects whatsoever on the organisms but some can be dangerous. There are two types of mutations that cause harm to the organism's ability to survive:teratogen muations are the mutations that form inside the uterus when the fetus is still developing and can even kill it or cause severe malformations that lead to death in the early life. Carcinogen mutations are the ones that lead to the formation of neoplasms(masses of cells that divide uncontrollably, basicly cancer).
Answer:
<em>The correct option is C) A mouse and a human have about the same number of genes.</em>
Explanation:
The technique of genetic sequencing has enable us to learn and compare thee genomes of different organisms. Genome sequencing proves that the genome of the humans and mice are about 99 percent similar. The number of genes in the mouse genome and the genome of humans is almost equal.
Other options, like option A, cannot be true because many complex organisms have fewer chromosomes than other organisms. For example, there are many simple plants which have more number of chromosomes than the complex humans.
Answer:
See the eplanation below, please.
Explanation:
In sickle cell anemia, hemoglobin has the form of rigid bars inside the red blood cells, causing them to adopt sickle shapes being not very flexible. These cells can block blood vessels, stopping the flow, causing oxygen to not reach the tissues.
The cause of this anemia is due to a genetic mutation (there is a substitution of thymine for adenine in the beta globin gene, located on chromosome 11), generating Hemoglobin S with a decrease in oxygen binding.
