The sexual type of reproduction requires cells to undergo the process of meiosis however the other type which is asexual only mitosis is important to reproduce. In meiosis, a cell is being separated into two unique cells while mitosis reproduce where all cells are identical.
<span>The correct answer is A) a single amino acid may have more than one codon that translates for it.</span>
<span>This property of the codon is called codon degeneracy and is the redundancy of the genetic code. As a result, there is the multiplicity of three-base-pair codon combinations that specify an amino acid and that increases tolerance to point mutations (synonymous mutations). Usually, the codons encoding one amino acid differ in the second or third position.</span>
All of the above. Each cell is working and helping in different specialized ways in the body.
Answer: Telophase
Explanation:
Mitosis is a process of division of the nucleus, which consists of the equal sharing of genetic material (DNA). This type of division occurs in somatic cells and the next step after mitosis is the division of the cytoplasm (cytokinesis), to form two genetically identical daughter cells.
First, it is necessary for the genetic material to be duplicated, so that each newly created cell receives the correct number of chromosomes (structure smade up of DNA). To separate these chromosomes, during <u>anaphase</u>, the chromosomes are anchored to the spindle microtubules and aligned at the metaphase plate (the center of the cell). The sister chromatids (two copies of a chromosome) are separated by the microtubules anchored to their kinetochores as they disassemble, heading toward the respective centrosomes (an organelle in which microtubules grow). Then, the microtubules pushing the centrosomes (and the set of chromosomes associated with them) toward opposite ends of the cell. Since it is necessary for the chromosomes to go to the poles of the cell, new cells are formed. So in this step, <u>it is necessary that the nuclear envelope is not present (otherwise, the nucleus could not divide).</u>
During <u>telophase</u>, microtubules not attached to kinetochores continue to elongate, further stretching the cell. The sister chromosomes are each associated with one of the poles, and as <u>the division of the nucleus is completed, the nuclear envelope reforms around both chromosome sets</u>,<u> using fragments of the nuclear envelope of the original cell.</u> The chromosomes are decondensed back into chromatin and only the cytokineses remain.
The fluorophore labels proteins that are part of the nuclear membrane and as telophase forms back, these proteins are expressed more. So, since the proteins of the nuclear envolope are labeled with a green fluoroforum, the green fluorescence would be most intense during telophase. Therefore there will be more intensity of green color compared to anaphase where the nuclear membrane is disintegrated.
Answer:
A mutation is a change in a DNA sequence. Mutations are commonly caused by mistakes during DNA replication. However, they can also be caused by ultraviolet radiation, exposure to chemicals called mutagens, and infection by viruses. But, a mutation usually occurs when a nucleotide in the DNA gets changed, causing the nucleotide sequence to be copied incorrectly which leads to the wrong code for a protein. This can sometimes be fatal.
Hope that helps.
