Which of the following mutations would most likely be identified as a chromosomal translocation

snow_lady [41]

Answer: Structural chromosomal mutation

Explanation: In translocation, a small piece of chromosome is detached from one chromosome and is attached to another non-homologous chromosome. Translocation can be simple, shift or reciprocal.

Simple translocation involves single break in the chromosome. The broken piece gets attached to the end of the non-homologous chromosome.

In Shift translocation, the broken segment of one chromosome gets inserted interstitially in a non-homologous chromosome.

Segment from one chromosome is exchanged with a segment from another non-homologous chromosome simultaneously in Reciprocal translocation.

If a mutation occurred that increased the number of exons in a sequence of DNA, what impact would this have on the protein forme

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

An increase in the number of exons in a sequence of DNA would result in another protein with a longer amino acid sequence.

Exons are the coding part of a gene as opposed to introns. After transcription, the non-coding part of the gene - the introns - are removed by splicing and the exons are joined back together. The final RNA that will undergo translation consists of only exons.

The longer the exons in a gene, the more the codons present in the corresponding mRNA from the gene, and the more the number of amino acids that would be translated from the mRNA. A longer amino acid chain would result in a different protein.

Hence, a mutation that causes an increase in the number of exons in a sequence of DNA would result in a different protein with a longer amino acid sequence.

The answer is bacteremia. septic shock is what can result from bacteremia if gone untreated. Sepsis is a widespread infection that's life threatening. Usually if some bacteria is introduced into the blood stream the immune system takes care of it so for sepsis to occur it would have to be pretty large amounts of bacteria.
