Answer:

C

Explanation:

You may not live in a part of the country that gets winter. If you did, you'd know the answer to this just be observation.

Rule: Less dense things float on more dense things.

A is incorrect. If the liquid form of water was less dense, it would float on the ice. That's not what happens.

B is not true. Liquid water is denser than solid water. That's why ice floats.

C is the answer.

D is not true. The densities can vary.

Answer: Under normal ambient conditions water is less dense as a solid than as a liquid, so ice floats on water. Most materials are more dense as solids.

Explanation: When water freezes, the molecules do not stack into a close-packed structure. They form a relatively open, honeycomb-like arrangement.

Suppose that an arginine residue in the active site of an enzyme was mutated to alanine. As expected, the alanine mutant was ina
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Alanine to lysine.

Explanation:

Mutation may be defined as the sudden, heritable change in the genome sequence of an organism. Two main types of mutation are chromosomal mutation and point mutation.

The mutation has occurred in which the arginine is replaced by alanine. The mutation that can restore to wild type is the conversion of alanine with lysine.    Since both arginine and lysine are basic amino acids. They both shows almost similar function and the replacement of lysine with alanine shows the wild type activity.

Thus, the answer is alanine to lysine.
