I believe this is because the frameshift mutations can affect many amino acids. 

Frame shift mutation is produced by either insertion of deletion of one or more new bases. Since the reading frame begins at the start site, any mRNA produced from mutated DNA sequence will be read out of frame after the point of the insertion or deletion, thus producing a nonsense protein.

Answer:

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, some bacteria, and some protistans use the energy from sunlight to produce sugar, which cellular respiration converts into ATP, the "fuel" used by all living things. The conversion of unusable sunlight energy into usable chemical energy, is associated with the actions of the green pigment chlorophyll.

Answer:

Yes, competition is likely to occur

Explanation:

Competition is an ecological interaction between organisms of the same or different species, resulting in the detriment of one of the organisms. Competition is generally caused when organisms in an ecosystem occupies the same niche i.e. they rely on the same ecological resource, which could be food, mate, space etc.

The case described in this question involving a Bagheera kiplingi (jumping spider) and acacia ants will likely result in competition because they both occupy the same habitat and feed on the same food (vegetable plant). The two organisms will have to compete for this limited resource, hence, it is regarded as an INTERSPECIFIC COMPETITION because it involves two different organisms.
