Which of the following mutations would likely be most dangerous to a cell?A. Deletion of one nucleotideB. Deletion of three nucl
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The reason the deletion of a nucleotide can be a lethal mutation is that it causes a frameshift mutation. This is due to teh fact that the codon sequence on the DNA is shifted by a single nucleotide. Therefore, the codons will read differently downstream from the place the deletion happened. The amino acids coded for by these codons will change too. The translated proteins will be defective and the organisms will be adversely affected, phenotypically.

Answer:

The correct answer will be-Orbicularis oris muscle

Explanation:

The muscle which is present in the mouth is known as the oribicularis oris which consists of various muscular fibres in a different direction.

The relationship between transcription and translation?
puteri [66]
Translation is the process of translating the sequence of a messenger RNA molecule to a sequence of amino acids during protein synthesis. So, the relationship between the two processes is that they are both involved in protein synthesis and that transcription is first, then translation is second.
