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 Nucleus contains most of the genetic information for making proteins

The ribosome is the place where the polypeptide strand and the mRNA meet in order to create a protein

Nucleolus has a role in the biogenesis of the ribosomes

RER -intracelular transport and protein making because of the attached ribosomes

SER-intracelular transport,lipid synthesis and it is the place where the glicogen is metabolized

Golgi Apparatus has a secretive role

Lysosomes contain 40+ hydrolytic enzimes that help with intracelular digestion

With respect to angiosperms, which of the following is incorrectly paired with its chromosome count?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Megaspore—2n.

Explanation:

Angiosperms are the fruit bearing plants and reproduce by the process of sexual reproduction. The chromosome number are specific at each stage of the cell cycle of the angiosperms.

Microspores , egg are haploid. Zygote is diploid in nature. Megaspores get germinate into the female gametophytes and these are haploid in nature. Megaspores are also haploid in angiosperms.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
