kiruha [24]

The correct answer is d. spinal cord.

Spinal cord is a bundle of neurons which starts from the brain and runs down the entire length of the back of the body. The spinal cord acts as a main means to transmit the messages between the brain and the body.

Sensory or efferent neurons carry the information from the perimeter of the body and pass to the central nervous system whereas the motor or efferent neurons act as a communication channel and carry the information from the nervous system to various glands and muscles.

Which is an example of a substitution mutation?
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG

Explanation:

Changes occur in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA molecule. These changes referred to as MUTATION are usually due mistakes during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substances). Mutation can be of different types depending on the kind of change that occured to the nucleotide sequence. Based on this question, one of the mutation types is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.

Substitution mutation is a kind of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base replaces another in the sequence.

The option that suits an example of substitution mutation is: CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG because Guanine nucleotide replaces Cytosine nucleotide in the third CODON i.e. TAC becomes TAG.
