Why is a change from ACG to ACT a big problem?

Biology

Guanine does not pair with Thymine. In a DNA strand, adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T), while guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C). Therefore, that must mean there was a problem or a mistake with the duplication of the strand.

Because it would result in a different amino acid being coded. Each amino acid in a strand is specified for the protein being built.
When mRNA uses ACG as a template to make amino acids, it will get UGC - which is a Cysteine amino acid.
But if ACT is used as a template, mRNA will get UGA - which is a stop codon. This will make the amino acid strand shorter and would result in a different protein being built.

The bottleneck effect is used to describe an event where a population decreases. One example involves the northern elephant seal
Svet_ta [14]
I think the best phrase to describe this would be Founder effects. Founder effects occurs when a new colony is started by a few members of the original population. This small population size means that the colony may have; a non-random sample of genes in the original population. Reduced variation from the original population.. According to Bottlenecks and founder effects, genetic drift can cause big losses of genetic variation for small populations.

As filtrate passes through the long loop of Henle, salt is removed and concentrated in the interstitial fluid of the kidney medu
storchak [24]

Answer:

Nephron is the functional unit of kidney. The kidney contains around 4 to 5 million of nephrons in their structure. These nephrons helps in the blood filtration.

The loop of Henley passes down the filtrate for the production of urine. The excess salt is removed from the loop and deposited in the medullary part of the kidney. This is important as the nephron can now become hyperosmotic  medullary concentration and helps in the urine production.

How are billions of genetically identical cells produced?
sammy [17]
Hi there!

The cells split, and, after a certain amount of time, the two identical replicas of the split cells split again into more cells. With energy, this process repeats until there are billions of trillions of cells.

Hope this helps!
