Answer:

<u>C) They may provide selective advantages. </u>

<u>D) Slight differences in the genetic code may have significant results.</u>

Explanation:

The genetic code is universal, and present in most living beings . Generally, in most living organisms, the same codons are assigned to the same amino acids.

DNA sequences make up genes that may have multiple variants, called alleles. DNA deoxyribonucleic acid, is transcribed into mRNA and then translated into amino acids that form proteins.

Natural selection mainly acts on phenotypes, which are dependent on proteins and the organisms's environment. Phenotypes conferring advantageous traits are favored by the selection process- these help groups of organisms evolve over time.

Assume the light wave directed at the paper is white light and the paper reflects the wavelengths of red-orange-yellow-green-blu

Tanzania [10]

If you apply white light and it reflects only red, you see it red, all the other wavelentghs absorbed. If it reflects all wavelength (i think listed all red-orange....) then it should be white.

Describe structural changes that can occur to a protein after translation is make it function properly

AVprozaik [17]

The structural variations that can happen in a protein after translation to make it function appropriately are:

• Folding – In the cytoplasm it partakes chaperonin protein that will aid to fold the protein into a purposeful shape. The hydrogen bonds will form to create secondary protein and disulfide bonds will form tertiary structure and hydrogen bonds.

• Cleavage – The activation into a purposeful protein over cleavage of certain amino acid sequences in which the amino acid order can fold to form the secondary or tertiary structure.

• Chemical Modification – A method of chemically responding a protein or nucleic acid with chemical components.

• Elaboration – In particulars of folding, chaperones, kinds of bonds, the role of Golgi, combination into current molecular arrays. Etc.

What would happen to a plant cell in a hypotonic solution

mash [69]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>When a plant cell is placed in a hypo-tonic solution It becomes turgid and hard.</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

A hypotonic solution refers to a solution that has less solute and more water than another solution. When the plant cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, it takes up water by osmosis and starts to swell, but the cell wall prevents it from bursting. The plant cell is said to have become "turgid" i.e. swollen and hard. The pressure inside the cell rises until this internal pressure is equal to the pressure outside.
