<span>It would result in a polypeptide which has a missing amino acid.  The genetic mutation that occurs in a person with cystic fibrosis is called frameshift mutation which is caused by an insertion or deletion of nucleotides that is not divisible by three in a sequence of DNA.</span>

Describe some characteristics used to group organisms into different kingdoms?
Olenka [21]

Three of the major characteristics used to classify organisms are cell structure, mode of nutrition and cellularity. These characteristics help scientists determine how organisms are similar to each other as well as how they are different from each other.

Classifying an organism according to its cell structure means determining if it is a prokaryote or eukaryote and then determining if the organism has a cell wall or other organelles, according to Dave Krupp of the University of Hawaii .

Mode of nutrition refers to how an organism gets its food. Organisms can be classified as autotrophs or heterotrophs. Autotrophs make their own food, while heterotrophs must eat other organisms to survive. If an organism is an autotroph, it can also be classified as a photoautotroph or a chemoautotroph. Stephen T. Abedon of Ohio State explains that photoautotrophs produce their own food using energy from sunlight. Chemoautotrophs produce food using the energy from electron-donating compounds.

Cellularity refers to how many cells an organism has and how those cells are arranged. Some organisms are single-celled, while others are multicellular. Advanced organisms have cells organized into tissues.

When human red blood cells are placed in pure water, the cells immediately burst. which process explains what happens to the red
irga5000 [103]
The process of osmosis explains what happened to the cells.

Osmosis is where water molecules will flow from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water potential, through a partially permeable membrane. Red blood cell is a human cell and have a partially permeable membrane. At the same time, pure water has the highest water potential among all substances, and of course higher than the cytoplasm of the red blood cell, therefore, water molecules will flow from the water to the red blood cell.

So much water has flown to the red blood cells that the cell membrane cannot hold all and eventually the cell bursts. Therefore, the process of osmosis explains this result.
