Answer:

Mutation, an alteration in the genetic material (the genome) of a cell of a living organism or of a virus that is more or less permanent and that can be transmitted to the cell’s or the virus’s descendants. The genomes of organisms are all composed of DNA, whereas viral genomes can be of DNA or RNA.

take the test and it's correct

Answer:

Mutations are only passed on to offspring when they occur in germ cell DNA, which are the cells that create sperm or ova. ... The mutation will be inherited only if it occurred on a chromosome in either the sperm cell or the ova cell out of many that eventually unite to form a zygote.

They are present in all body cells and can be passed down to new generations. Acquired mutations occur during an individual's life. If an acquired mutation occurs in an egg or sperm cell, it can be passed down to the individual's offspring. Once an acquired mutation is passed down, it is a hereditary mutation

I hope this helps.

Show the energy of Oxidation of two mole pyruvic acid.
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Methanesulfinic acid (MSIA) is an important intermediate in the oxidation of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in the marine boundary layer. The oxidation of MSIA by ozone in the gas phase to form methanesulfonic acid (MSA) was investigated using theoretical calculations in this paper. Three pathways can be found for the reaction of MSIA with ozone. The highest energy barrier is 13.02 kcal mol−1 in the most favorable pathway. By comparing the reaction rate of MSIA + O3 with that of MSIA + OH, it can be concluded that the oxidation of MSIA by O3 to form MSA is of minor significance relative to its oxidation by OH radical in the gas phase. This study can provide some information for the theoretical and experimental studies in the significantly heterogeneous and aqueous-phase oxidation of MSIA by O3.
