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.

If an enzyme inhibitor binds at a site other than the active site of the enzyme, the nature of the inhibitor is described as
icang [17]

Answer:

B. non-competitive

Explanation:

As opposed as competitive inhibition, the non-competitive one does not bind with the active region of the enzyme. However, it does reduce the efficiency of the reaction because it changes the protein structure, making it unavailable for substrate.

Reversibility is related to the possibility of the reaction to be undone. If the bond is covalent, the enzyme will not return to its active state, so that would be a non-reversible bind.
