Oceanic plate crust is thinner and denser than continental crust, so the thinner oceanic crust gets bent and pulled under the continental crust. this creates a subtraction zone.

it could form a trench, or a mountain range, or one plate could subduct beneath another and the other "floating" on top.

How many amino acids could be specified if codons consisted of two nucleotides instead of three? What problem would this present
Greeley [361]

Answer:

This could result in a mutation.

Explanation:

A change in the DNA can affect the work of cells because it can cause a mutation; it can be a good mutation or bad. The three main mutations that occur are Insertion, Deletion and Substitution. Insertion is when DNA base(s) are added in, Deletion is when DNA base(s) are removed. Lastly, Substitution is when DNA base(s) are switched on. All of these mutations can have effects. These effects are Silent effect, Missence, and Nonsense. Silent effect is a mutation that does not change the sequence of amino acids in a protein. Missence is a mutation that causes the sequence of amino acids to change. This can cause incorrect protein folding and protein malfunction. Nonsense is a mutation that causes an early stop codon. This effect leads to a protein that is too small. Also a Frameshift can occur. Framshift is when the reading of a frameshift is moved over by one or more bases such that every subsequent amino acid changes. An example of a frameshift is THE CAT ATE THE RAT. If you insert an A at the Beginning this happens ATH ECA TAT ETH ERA T. IN Conclusion there are two Mutations that also play a role in this Point Mutation and Chromosomal Mutaion. Point Mutation is when a single DNA base is either substituted, inserted or deleted from the sequence. Chromocomal Mutation is when large pieces of a chromosome or an entire chromosome is either substituted, inserted or deleted.

Why does mutation happen regularly? *
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Explanation:

A mutation is a change that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke. Mutations can occur during DNA replication if errors are made and not corrected in time.

What was the purpose of applying the rooting medium? Why was it applied to only one of each set and not to all of the plants?
sveticcg [70]

by using rooting harmone  roots develop quickly at cutting and and it become  more robust than cuttings which don't receive rooting hormone. Cutting harmone is used mostly on ornamental plants in the landscape and to propagate succulents.

It cannot apply on whole plant since it will not mix with old one and a new catergory or plant will develop and it will distroy the originality of the actual plant
