The correct answer is: silent mutation

There are a few types of genetic mutation that can change genetic code. Those mutations can be classified:

1. Substitution-only one base is changed

• Nonsense mutations-when substitution leads to the formation of a stop codon instead of a codon

• Missense mutations-when one nucleotide is substituted and a different codon is formed

• Silent mutations-when a nucleotide is substituted and the same amino acid is produced

2. Insertion- extra base pairs are inserted

3. Deletion- section of DNA is deleted

Luden [163]

Answer:

The scaling exponent will be 0.75

Explanation:

According to a famous article by Max Kleiber*, the scaling of the metabolic rate or energy consumption for mammals Pmetab (measured in kcal/day) with the body mass Mb (measured in kilograms) is  P metab = 70 Mb^0.75 .

What is the scaling exponent (the quantity x in a scaling law A = cMbx) for the specific metabolic rate as a function of the animal’s body mass?

he scaling of the metabolic rate or energy consumption for mammals P=kcal/day

Mb=body mass in kilograms

Comparing

P metab = 70 Mb^0.75 .

with A = cMb^x

the scaling exponent will be 0.75

metabolic rate is the energy(in kilojoule) consumed at rest. it accounts for the highest amount of energy a body consumes daily
