Briefly, the DNA in our cells is translated by cell machinery to make proteins. ... The DNA sequence of a gene determines the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein. Thus, any changes in DNA sequence can result in changes in protein function. This is called a mutation. Hope this helps

Point mutations are the substitution of a single nucleotide, which creates a different codon and therefore a different amino acid. the incorporation of a different amino acid in the protein can completely disrupt the normal function of proteins.

Based on your understanding of the hydrologic cycle and oceans, pick the correct statement from the choices below.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Neither A nor B is correct

Explanation:

Hydrologic cycle is the sequence of different conditions through which the water passes from oceans to clouds, precipitates as rains, comes to the rivers and finally reaches the ocean.

This first statement in the question said that water will end up in the river which is not true because water from the river ultimately ends in the oceans because all the rivers terminate in the oceans finally.

The second statement is also wrong because when water from one ocean vaporizes and becomes cloud, it can travel large distances as clouds in the effect of wind and thus may get precipitated in the form of rain in some other part of the world. So, it is not necessary that the water will end up in the same ocean.
