While the DNA in a human skin cell was being replicated, a single base was miscopied. What will be the most likely result of thi

s for the cell in which it happened? (2 points)
All the proteins the cell creates from the miscopied strand will do different jobs than the old ones.
Any miscopied DNA will be replaced with an accurate DNA copy once the cell divides. Both new DNA strands will end up together in a new cell, and the inaccurate one will be discarded.
If the new sequence codes for the same amino acid as the original cell, it will function normally.

Answer:

<u>Any miscopied DNA will be replaced with an accurate DNA copy once the cell divides.</u>

Explanation:

Once the cell enter cell division, there are checkpoint to repair damaged or mismatched DNA.  Checkpoint activation pauses the cell cycle to provide the cell enough time to repair the damage before continuing to divide. DNA damage checkpoints occur at the G1/S and G2/M boundaries. The DNA polymerase will correct a mismatch or miscopied base on the strand before continuing with replication.Through this, the enzyme prevents mutations that would likely happen.

A student does an experiment for a science fair to study whether temperature affects the timing of a cricket’s chirps. The stu
nexus9112 [7]

The frequency of chirps increases as the temperature increases. The correct option is B. <em>The chirps occur closer together as the temperature increases.  </em>

-------------------------------

<h2><u>Available data:</u></h2>

<h3>Data recorded by the student </h3>

<em><u>Day      Temperature   Average time between chirps (sec)</u></em>

1            21                             2. 5

2           22                            2. 6

3           23                            2. 2

4           24                            2. 3

5           25                            2. 0

6           26                             1. 8

7           27                              1. 9

8           28                             1. 8

9          29                             1. 4

10          30                             1. 2

11           31                              1. 5

<u>12          32                             1. 1</u>

In this experiment the student recorded the time in seconds <u>between </u><u>chirps</u>.

We can see that <em>as the </em><em>temperature increases</em><em>, in general, the</em><em> time</em><em> between</em><em> chirps decreases</em>.

  • At 21ºC the time between chirps is 2.5 seconds
  • At 26ºC the time between chirps is 1.8 seconds
  • At 32ºC the time between chirps is 1.1 seconds

According to this information, if the average time between chirps decreases with the temperature increase, we can assume that<em> the </em><em>frequency</em><em> of chirps </em><em>increases</em><em> as the temperature gets higher. </em>

<h3>Options,</h3>

<em>A) The higher the temperature, the fewer chirps there will be in 10 seconds</em>.

Wrong. The number of chirps in 10 seconds will depend, not only on the frequency but also on how long the chirps last. Since the student did not record the time of chirps, we can not make this conclusion.  

<em>B) The chirps occur closer together as the temperature increases</em>.

True. The chirps increase in frequency as the temperature increases, so they occur closer together.

<em>C) The chirps become farther apart as the temperature increases</em>.

Wrong. We can see how the time between chirps decreases as temperature increases, meaning that they are closer not farther.

D) There is no relationship between temperature and the time between chirps.

Wrong. If we make a graph we will see the tendency and the relationship between chirps and temperature.

Graphs usually explain the relationship between variables. In this example, the relationship would be inverse.

True or false? it is the medical assistant's responsibility to determine whether a patient has an advance directive in place
Mila [183]
The statement above is TRUE.
Medical advance refers to the document which a patient write down in advance in other to indicate the type of medical treatment he or she will prefer in case the person become so sick that they can not communicate this need to the health providers again.
The medical assistant in the hospital is the one who act as the patient's coordinator by providing means of communication between the other health providers and the patient. So, it is their duty to ensure that the patient has an advance directive in place.
