Hi,

If a point mutation occurs during which  CGA changes to AGA, the mutation will be simply inherited to the offspring and there won't be any harsh effects on the health of individual.

This is because, both AGA and CGA code for same amino acid called Arginine.

We know that mutations posses harmful effects when they change the genetic sequence leading to the incorporation of incorrect amino acid in the organisms and their offspring. But in this case the mutation will not be harmful and will simply be transferred to the offspring and will have no effect on the functioning, fitness or survival of the organism

Hope it helps!:)

Answer:

Nothing will happen since the last codon will still correspond to threonine.

The best classification system is that which most closely
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

c.reflects evolutionary history.

Explanation:

The best classification system in biology is that that reflects evolutionary history, this is because more developed animals evolved from ancestors, this means that little modifications on the DNA happened over the course of million of years that created the animals that we know today, so this little differences would be relfected on a classification system.
