Answer: The change in single base results in the substitution by a chemically similar amino acid

Explanation:

Whenever a change in one of the bases on the DNA sequence leads to the synthesis of a chemically similar amino acid (e.g glutamate substituted by aspartate, a fellow amino acid with acidic side chain) the protein formed is not altered, and still retains its function. Hence, this type of single base change is known as Silent mutation

Given a population that contains genetic variation, what is the correct sequence of the following events under the influence of
natali 33 [55]

The correct option is (a) 2 → 4 → 1 → 3

A change occurs in the environment. → Poorly adapted individuals have decreased survivorship. → Well-adapted individuals leave more offspring than do poorly adapted individuals. → Genetic frequencies within the population change.

<h3>What is genetic variation in population?</h3>
  • The presence of various alleles, or different gene versions, within a population indicates genetic variety.
  • If there is genetic variation, then everybody in the population will have various genotypes depending on the alleles they carry.
  • Genetic loci that have many alleles are said to be polymorphic. Human characteristics like blood type and eye color, for instance, are polymorphic.

joja [24]
The DIRECT PHOSPORYLATION OF ADP BY CREATINE PHOSPHATE is the most inefficient pathway to regenerate atp during 30 minutes of light to moderate exercise.

Aerobic respiration is the pathway for regenerating atp that provides the majority of the energy used for muscle activities during 30 minutes of light to moderate exercises.
