A virus infects a cell and randomly inserts many short segments of DNA containing a stop codon throughout the organism's chromos

omes. This will probably cause _____.
Biology
1 answer:
jonny [76]3 years ago
7 0

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

  1. manufactured proteins to be short and defective
  2. the DNA to break up into thousands of short segments
  3. incorrect pairing between mRNA codons and amino acids
  4. no bad effects, as long as the stop codons are not also inserted into tRNA
  5. all of the above

Answer:

manufactured proteins to be short and defective

Explanation:

The virus particle replicates in the host machinery by using its DNA replication machinery and then transcription and translation machinery.

If by chance, the virus particle inserts stop codon along with the segments of DNA therefore the stop codon will show its effect during the translation process when the DNA sequence is translated into the proteins.

When the stop codon will be read during the translation then the protein synthesis will stop at that time and short or defective proteins will be produced.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The answer is D. Food security

Explanation:

Sustainable Agriculture:

Sustainable agriculture or farming is a combination of agricultural policies, practices and measures that yield the maximum profits and benefits without negatively impacting the environment.

Sustainable agriculture, as an idea, basically means to utilizes resources responsibly so that the future generations can reap the benefits as well.

Sustainable Farming Approaches:

Approaches to sustainable farming include policy as well as farming technique interventions. Some of these methods are:

  • Crop rotations that involve planting diverse crops on a piece of land, as opposed to monoculture and intensive farming that gradually makes the soil nutrient deficient.
  • Cover cropping after a season of monoculture to prevent leaving the soil bare til the next season.
  • Use of renewable energy resources and integrated pet management to generate energy efficiently and minimize crop losses respectively.

Food Security:

Food security entails that healthy, nutritious and safe food is readily i.e. physically and economically available for all people. Food security is one of the major sustainability goals.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. "20 H1, 40 H2A".

Explanation:

Chromatin is a complex that protects and condenses the genetic material comprised of DNA and proteins. When chromatin is in the form of a 30 nm fibril, nucleosomes have a regular positioning along the DNA. This means that each nucleosome is associated with a single H1 molecule. Therefore a chromatin containing 20 nucleosomes will have 20 copies of H1 and 40 copies of H2A, because each nucleosome has 2 copies of the core histone H2A.

Explain how water helps to regulate temperature
inysia [295]
Because water can absorb and transfer heat well, the human body uses it to stabilize temperature. Water has a relatively high heat capacity, meaning it can absorb a lot of heat before its temperature rises. ... Water also helps expel excess heat from the body as water vapor from the lungs and sweat on the skin.
