Answer:

Some of Carl Linnaeus' classifications of organisms were incorrect because he classified them based off of appearances and actions instead of actual relationships. For instance, bats were classified as birds because they flew, and whales were classified as fish because they had fins and swam underwater.The mere fact that some of his classifications were off, however, does not reduce the marked effect that it had on the advancement of scientific thought in the present world. His findings have greatly influenced the modern classification system in many ways.

Explanation:

Carl Linnaeus classified organisms on the basis of physical features. In his time, this was accepted. As time went on, he was stated incorrectly with the aid of new discoveries. However, he did facilitate the scientific community in a different way. He classified organisms with their common ancestors.

- hope this helps ✌

This system comprises of the nuclear membrane also as the outer nuclear membrane is continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum (organelle) directly and helps the synthesis and modification of the proteins and lipids. other organelles are the Golgi apparatus, vesicles, lysosomes and endosomes.

A part of an mRNA has the sequence CCG. Which change to this sequence
Flauer [41]

Answer:

A single nucleotide changes in CCG which will result in missense mutation can be many possibilities.

Explanation:

Missense mutations  

CCG codes for Proline amino acid

• Mutation in first nucleotide codes for  

 UCG specifically encodes Serine

 ACG specifically encodes Threonine  

 GCG specifically encodes Alanine                              

                                                                                      Missense mutation  

• Mutation in second nucleotide specify for coding

 CUG specifically encodes Leucine

 CAG specifically encodes Glutamine  

 CGG specifically encodes Arginine

• Mutation in Third Nucleotide will not result in missense mutation because any point mutation in third nucleotide of codon will encode same amino acid i.e Proline.
