Answer:

The correct option is: e. Both B and D

Explanation:

Type I alveolar cells are the thin squamous epithelial cells that lines the alveolar surface of the pulmonary alveoli.

These cells are involved in the gas exchange process. The thin lining of the type I alveolar cells, allows the rapid diffusion of gas and thus enabling the exchange of gases between the blood present in the capillaries and the air present in the pulmonary alveoli.

Imagine that a mutation in DNA produces a protein with a slightly different amino acid sequence. how would this mutation affect

Lynna [10]

Answer:

It would most likely render the protein nonfunctional or mis-functional.

The mutation could result in three outcomes:

Silent mutation, which changes the codon to the same amino acid. (AAA->AAG, both are lysine). But since the problem specified that it has a "slightly different amino acid sequence," we can assume this doesn't happen.
Nonsense mutation, which changes a codon to a stop codon. This would end the chain of amino acids, making the protein potentially nonfunctional.
Missense mutation, which changes a codon to another completely different codon. This can be harmful, as in sickle-cell disease, where just one amino acid, glutamic acid, is changed to valine.

How does semi-conservative replication help prevent mutations during DNA replications?

Llana [10]

DNA replication is the process by which two DNA molecules are produced from one parent DNA molecule. DNA replication is semi conservative, this implies that, each strand in the double helix DNA molecule act as a template for the synthesis of a new, complimentary DNA strand. Because semi conservative method has a DNA template that is already accurately formed, the probability of having errors in the newly formed strand is drastically reduced.
