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:

Potential & Kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The water used gains potential energy overtime before it is converted to mechanical (or kinetic energy). This can be explained by the water having increased potential energy as it flows at an equal altitude, but converting to kinetic energy as it flows downhill, or over the dam.

This kinetic (or mechanical) energy is then converted to traditional electricity. This process is also an example of a renewable resource being utilized for everyday things (such as powering cars, homes. or charging batteries).

Servicing the interrupt

An interrupt is the signal to the processor from the hardware which say something about the problem that needs attention. This alerts the processor to respond and command an appropriate action to the problem. This can be done by suspending activities, saving current state and executing the interrupt handler. The interruption is just temporary after finishing the problem the processor will start again the normal activities.
