How can changes in the structure of DNA affect its protein-building function?

Biology

STatiana [176]4 years ago
8 0

The DNA structure is modified by the replacement of DNA base by amino acid. Thus, the protein formation process by amino acids also gets affected.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The sequence of DNA bases determines the DNA structure.
  • The change in the coding of DNA bases due to amino acids results in a change of both the number of bases and amino acids in the gene which may alter the protein building.
  • These changes may occur in different ways such as addition, deletion or substitution of DNA base with an amino acid.

Inga [223]

A pond organism that is unicellular, contains membrane-bound organelles and possesses a flagellum is a PROTISTA. It is a unicellular kingdom.

The Protista kingdom is composed of eukaryotic single-celled unicellular organisms.

Flagellated protists are microorganisms having a tail-like projection known as flagellum.

The flagellum is a structure used for motion, thereby, in general,  flagellated protists are found in moist environments (e.g., ponds, fresh-water, etc).

What are the benefits of genetic variation?
Ratling [72]
Genetic variation allows for a greater chance of a population surviving. For example, if a plant species acquires a disease, without genetic variation the disease would just keep getting passed on to the next identical organism and the population would decline and eventually die. But genetic variation prevents that from happening, because you have so many other species in the ecosystem, and genetic variation is a product of sexual reproduction meaning that the offspring of the diseased plant has a possibility of not inheriting the disease.
