DNA Mutation is caused by the alteration of single base units in DNA, or the deletion, insertion, or rearrangement of larger sections of genes or chromosomes. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
1.DNA Mutations are caused by environmental factors known as mutagens.
2.Types of DNA mutagens include radiation, chemicals, and infectious agents.
3.DNA Mutations may be spontaneous in nature.
Bacteria is the number 1 answers
The cell needs transcription because the DNA cannot leave the nucleus and therefore cannot transmit info to the other cells.
Biotic would mean living so fish and sea plants
A magnitude-5.0 earthquake releases about <u>32</u> times more energy than a 4.0 magnitude earthquake.
Explanation:
The characteristics of an earthquake are mostly measured through its magnitude and intensity.
A earthquake will generate seismic energy waves which will spread outwardly on the earth's surface in all directions.
The magnitude of an earthquake is the quantitative measure of the amount of energy released during a seismic activity or an earthquake.
The intensity of an earthquake is a descriptive measure of the severity or the strength of the earthquake based on the impact it has done on the earth’s surface, human population, and other man-made structures on the earth and the potential danger.
The magnitude measured using a seismograph is expressed as a whole number or a decimal fraction like 5.7, 4.5 etc. The severity of the magnitude is compared against the standard Richter’s Scale.
The intensity is denoted in Roman numerals and compared against various scales like Mercalli or Rossi-Forel Scales.
Based on the logarithmic application of the scale, each whole number increase in an earthquake’s magnitude depicts a ten-fold increase in severity of the amplitude of the earthquake as measured on the seismogram and denotes about 32 times increased energy release
