Answer:

 d. Lysine is replaced by tryptophan (nonpolar)

Explanation:

Amino acid substitutions can have varying affects on the protein function, depending on the specific substitution and the location of the substitution.

If the substitution occurs in an important region, for example an enzyme active site, then the function of the protein could be destroyed.

Additionally, if the substitution replaces the amino acid with a highly different amino acid with different properties (eg. polarity), it could alter the structure and function of the protein.

Replacing lysine (polar) with a tryptophan (non-polar) changes the properties of the amino acid at that location, whereas the other substitutions do not.

Describe how a volcano would form along a divergent boundary convergent boundary and hotspot
daser333 [38]
For divergent boundary: when the crust of the earth fractures it allows magma to reach the surface. For convergent boundary: When one of the converging plates move underneath the other, a process also known as subduction; the new magma rises and can erupt to form volcanos. For the Hotspot: magma pushes through cracks in the crust to form volcanos. Hope this helps!!
