Answer:

mRNA: 3' AUG-AAU-GCU-GCC-GGU-GA-5'

amino acids : methionine, asparagine, alanine, arginine, proline

type of mutation: deletion, missense

Explanation:

The mRNA sequence is complementary to the DNA sequence. A always pairs with T, C always pairs with G. Except this is an RNA sequence not a DNA sequence, so T is replaced with U.

The mRNA sequence is translated into an amino acid sequence based on the triplet code. The triplet code for this sequence is shown in the attached picture. Each triplet signifies a specific amino acid. The codon can be identified from the table and placed in sequence. We can see that the new DNA strand has caused a new amino acid sequence. It has also left us with an incomplete sequence, as GA cannot signify an amino acid.

The type of mutation is a single base deletion. We can see that the base C is missing from the 9th amino acid in the original strand. As you can see, this has an ongoing affect on all the bases in the rest of the sequence, as it changes the way the sequence is organised into codons. This results in a missense mutation.

Explain how the domain system has changed over the years

jasenka [17]

<span>This classification system model was based on principles developed by Swedish scientist Carolus Linnaeus, whose hierarchical system groups organisms based on common physical characteristics. Taxonomy is a hierarchical system for classifying and identifying organisms. Carolus Linnaeus developed those principles in the 18th century. In 1990, Three-domain system was developed by Carl Woese, an American microbiologist and physicist. The three-domain system divides cellular life forms into archaea, bacteria, and eukaryote domains and each domain can be further divided into kingdoms, phyla, classes, and so forth so it changes every year...</span>

Elena L [17]

There are seven main levels of classification, divided into five kingdoms.

Animal - Animals are multicellular eukaryotes whose cells are bound together by collagen.
Plant - Plants are predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.
Fungi - A fungus is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms.
Protist - A protist is any eukaryotic organism that is not an animal, plant, or fungus.
Monera (unicellular) - Kingdom Monera belongs to the prokaryote family. These are the oldest known microorganisms on earth.

Answer:

Read the Explanation below.

Explanation:

They could first test the density of the skeleton to see if it is real or not (bone has a different density and weight than plastic). They could also measure a sample of one part of the skeleton and see if it contains skeletal tissue (if it does, it is a from a human being).

What are the male and female reproductive structures found in flowers?

GREYUIT [131]

Each carpel includes an ovary (where the ovules are produced; ovules are the female reproductive cells, the eggs), a style (a tube on top of the ovary), and a stigma (which receives the pollen during fertilization). The Male Reproductive Organs: Stamens are the male reproductive parts of flowers.
