The right answer is D.

The origin of replication (also called "ori") is a unique DNA sequence that allows the initiation of replication. It is from this sequence that unidirectional or bidirectional replication begins.

Prokaryotes have a single circular DNA molecule and therefore usually only one origin of replication. Depending on the Archaea species, there may be one or more origins of replication by replicon1. Eukaryotes have multiple origins of replication on each chromosome.

The origin of replication of Escherichia coli is known as oriC and extends over 245 base pairs (bp). It contains upstream of a 13 bp sequence (GATCTNTTNTTTT) repeated three times, and further downstream, four 9 bp (9mer) sequences that are in either orientation. Proteins, called DnaA, will bind to the repeated 9 bp sequences. The DNA will then wrap around the protein complex of DnaA. This conformational change in DNA results in the opening of the DNA double helix at the adenine and thymine-rich 13 bp repeat which allows enzymes and other factors to bind to dissociated strands and start replication.

The answer is a simple radial nervous system.

Echinoderms do not have brains. Around their mouth, they have central rings from which nerves radially run into arms and along the body. Movement is controlled by the branches of those radial nerves.

In sickle-cell disease, as a result of a single amino acid change, the mutant hemoglobin tetramers associate with each other and
gogolik [260]

Answer:

The correct answer is - altered primary and quaternary structure; secondary and  tertiary structure may or may not be altered.

Explanation:

a) Primary structure: It is fundamentally the amino acid sequence or arrangments. Every protein has a remarkable amino acid sequence and little change in these sequence modifies the primary structure. On account of sickle cell, the amino corrosive has changed, and henceforth the essential structure of the protein molecule changes.  

b). secondary structure: It is the folding of the primary structure chain, which results from intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen holding of the amide group. Ex; Alpha helix and beta sheets. In the above case, this may or might not have changed as there is no conclusive method to know this.  

c) Tertiary structure: Most proteins' tertiary structures are mixes of a-helices, b sheets, and circles and turns. Every protein has interesting three-dimensional structure, folded in a particular way now and then known as a domain. For our situation, since it depends on the optional structure, it might have changed.

d) Quaternary structure: It is the relationship of numerous individual protein chains into a solitary protein with various subunits. The subunits arrangment offers to ascend to a steady structure. For our situation, a hemoglobin tetramers partner with one another and gather into large fibers. This has changed the first structure and accordingly we state the quaternary structure has changed.
