Answer:
Mutations in introns create alternative splicing site which in turn make mRNA with reduced or no translation.
Explanation:
Introns regulate the splicing of heterogenous RNA during post transcriptional modifications as well as affect the stability of mature mRNA. The stable mRNA is more likely to be translated into proteins. So, introns also regulate the translation of mRNA.
In human beta thalassemia, mutations in intron create alternative splicing sites which in turn affect the formation of beta globin chain of hemoglobin. Lack of beta globin chain reduces the amount of functional hemoglobin and causes anemia.
The other events that most likely occurred during the same time period would be; An environmental change that did not favor the individuals in the population with the allele most likely led to the change in allele frequency; because the allele frequency decreased by so much, there would had to have been a decrease in the population within a three generation period of time.
I believe its (E) Most ATP is produced during cell respiration as a result of the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.
One example of how natural selection can change the distribution of a trait is the peppered moths during the industrial revolution. The moths were originally mainly white with a few black spots, however, when all the factories were built, the trees the peppered moths lived on turned a black color, causing ones who were mostly white to be picked off by predators, but the ones that were black with a few white spots survived and blended in better, leaving them to breed and produce more black-colored moths that would survive easily. This shows the changing of a trait because ones that used to be mostly white were killed, showing a shift in the trait pattern in favor to the black moths that now lived instead of the white moths.
