Explain what frame shift means and is it more or less likely to cause a noticeable mutation than a substitution

Biology
1 answer:
harina [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A frameshift mutation can be described as a genetic mutation in which a single nucleotide or more than one nucleotide is inserted or deleted from the sequence of the DNA. As the gene expresses itself in the form of triplets of a genetic code, insertion or deletion can cause devastating changes in the genetic code due to which wrong proteins will be synthesized.

Frameshift mutations can be more noticeable than the substitution mutation. In a substitution mutation, only one of the nucleotides is shifted with another. The entire genetic code is not affected by it.

The side chain of ________ has a pKa in the physiological pH range and is therefore often involved in proton transfer during enz
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

His

Explanation:

The side chain of Histidine has a pKa in the physiological pH range and is therefore often involved in proton transfer during enzymatic catalysis. It is a amino acid which is used for the biosynthesis of protein. Histidine was initially thought to be essential only for infants but now it has  been found to be essential for adults too.If we see the histidine structure contains an α-amino acid, a carboxylic acid group, and an imidazole side chain.

Why do most organisms that die not leave a record of their existence
jeyben [28]
They leave no record of their existence because it's rare that fossils form. You need the right conditions in which the animal's remains are covered in silt, dirt, and rock layers in order for a fossil to form and therefore preserve the animal's remains in rocks. Otherwise, the animal's remains will be eaten by other animals or eventually rot away.
