Which of the following is the most likely effect of the mutation at nucleotide position 7 in the GULO gene of humans? A. The mut
ation results in the deletion of the GULO gene, so no polypeptide can be translated. B. The deletion of the single nucleotide causes a frame shift, changing the primary structure downstream of the mutation and resulting in a nonfunctional protein. C. The point mutation causes a substitution of the amino acid isoleucine (lle)for histidine (His) at position 7, resulting in a protein with higher than normal activity. D The substitution of a single nucleotide in the GULO coding region results in a stop codon. This results in a smaller nonfunctional protein.
Answer: A) Energy is transferred from
Joey to the water. The temperature of the water increases.
<span>If Little Joey jumps into a pool on a
cool fall morning, heat energy from Joey’s body is transferred to the cold
water increasing its temperature. It is called conduction. </span>
