Answer:
One amino acid
Explanation:
This question is describing the occurrence of the process of mutation, which is the alteration in the genetic sequence of a gene. In this question, a DNA sequence was given as follows: TAC-ATC-CAT-CAG-TTA-CGC. However, a SUBSTITUTION MUTATION took place in such a way that the thymine base was replaced by a guanine base to have mutated sequence: GAC-ATC-CAT-CAG-TTA-CGC.
Since the mutation is a kind of substitution mutation, only the codon affected by that mutation will change. This DNA sequence will be transcribed into a mRNA sequence. The mRNA will be read codon by codon (a group of hree nucleotides) to produce amino acid. Since one codon will be involved, one amino acid will be affected.
Answer:
large mammals such as gorillas
Explanation:
The survivorship curves refer to the graphical representation of the proportion of the fraction of survivors or the individuals at a given age.
There are three types of survivorship curves which can be constructed by studying the life history of the organisms.
The type I survivorship curve is the curve which can be formed with the organism which has a high survival rate at the younger and middle age and high death rate at the older age. The type I curve can be characterised by its convex shaped. The type I is showed by the large mammals like gorilla, humans and many others.
Thus, large mammals such as gorillas are the correct answer.
Answer:
High amounts of fluoride
Explanation:
Teeth cleaning agents can contaminate one's blood with fluoride, something that it is only healthy to accumulate a small amount of.
Bee hummingbird, zunzuncito or Helena hummingbird (Mellisuga helenae) is a species of hummingbird which is the world's smallest bird and the smallest known dinosaur. It is native to Cuba.
Answer:
See the eplanation below, please.
Explanation:
In sickle cell anemia, hemoglobin has the form of rigid bars inside the red blood cells, causing them to adopt sickle shapes being not very flexible. These cells can block blood vessels, stopping the flow, causing oxygen to not reach the tissues.
The cause of this anemia is due to a genetic mutation (there is a substitution of thymine for adenine in the beta globin gene, located on chromosome 11), generating Hemoglobin S with a decrease in oxygen binding.
