Answer: The correct answer for the blanks are-

1) an insertion mutation.

2) This mutation won't alter the protein function.

Muttation can be described as a permanent change in the genetic material ( that is deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA) of an organism.

Insertion mutation is one of the types of mutation in which there is an addition of one or more nucleotide bases in the already existing DNA sequence.

In this question, Cytosine ( C) is inserted at the fourth position of already existing DNA sequence.

As this mutation has occurred in the non coding region ( a region of DNA sequence that does not code for any protein) according to the question, therefore, this mutation will not interrupt the formation of a functional protein.

AC TG TG TC

CC AC AC AC TC TC TC

Explanation:

Haplotype research served to discover the origin of genetic mutations that today manifest as pathologies.

It is very important to know that there are no equal haplotypes in two or more different humans.

They are the allelic constitution of multiple loci for the same chromosome.

Furthermore, haplotypes are very good for studying population genetics.

I leave you a table that will help you for this exercise or many more, where the haplotype system is outlined.

If the integument of an angiosperm seed contains cells with 20 chromosomes, how many chromosomes would you expect to find in the
OleMash [197]

Answer:

30

Explanation:

The seed of an angiosperm is formed as a result of fertilization (fusion of sperm in pollens and the ova from ovary). According to the question, the cells of the seed which will grow into the plant contains 20 chromosomes. Seeds of angiosperms contain a tissue called ENDOSPERM that forms as a result of the unique DOUBLE FERTILIZATION in angiosperms. It occurs when one haploid sperm cell fuses with two haploid polar nuclei to form a triploid endospermic structure that serves as food for the growing embryo in the seed.

Now based on the above explanation, the diploid plant cell with 20 chromosomes will have 10 chromosomes (half as much) in its gametes as a result of meiosis. This 10 chromosomes in each gamete (sperm and ovum) fuses to form a diploid zygote with 20 chromosomes, while one haploid sperm cell (10 chromosomes) also fuses with two haploid polar nuclei (10 chromosomes each) to form a triploid endosperm with 30 chromosomes i.e. 10+10+10.

yKpoI14uk [10]
The animals would lose their homes and might die because they have no shelter. The plants that are in the exact spot where the house is going to be will die. Overall I think the animal species that lives there would decrease rapidly, which would reduce the biodiversity in the area.
