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.

A description of natural events that has been proven to be true time after time, without exception.
Ainat [17]
The correct option is D.
A natural law refers to a description of natural event that has been proved to be true without exception. Such a law usually generalizes a body of observation but can not explain why the observation occur. An example of a natural law is Newton's law of gravity, he observed that an object thrown up usually come down but can not explain the reason behind this observation.

What is the speed of a wave with a wavelength of 3 m and a frequency of .1 Hz? 0.03 m/s 0.3 m/s 3.1 m/s 30 m/s
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b, 0.3m/s

Step by Step solution:

The relation between speed, wavelength and frequency of a wave is given by the following equation:  

Speed = Wavelength x Frequency

Substituting the values in above equation we get –  

= 3  x 0.1  

= 0.3 m/s
