The definition is:genetics definition<span>. The study of heredity, or how the characteristics of living things are transmitted from one generation to the next.

<span>LD
means lethal dose. LD50 is the amount of a material, administered at once to
cause the death of half (50%) of a group of test organisms. A test which shows that LD50 of a certain
chemical is 20 mg per kg means that 20 milligrams of that chemical for every 1
kilogram body weight of the test animal when administered in one dose, causes
the death of 50% of the test group.</span>
<span>A heterozygous individual is if a mutation occurs in just one copy of the gene.
If both copies of the gene are mutated than the individual is homozygous</span>
Answer:
See the answer below please.
Explanation:
There are different types of mutations:
- Substitutions: the exchange of one base for another occurs (eg changes a C for an A), which could lead to a codon change that codes for a different amino acid causing changes in nascent protein, generating a codon that codes for the same amino acid without any change in nascent protein; generate a different codon for the amino acid: a stop codon and cause an incomplete protein to form.
-Insertions: base pairs are added to the DNA sequence.
-Deletions: base pairs are removed from the DNA sequence.
~ B - Adding wood to a burning fire to increase the heat.
A is kind of like a reaction to negative feedback - it's too hot, so cooling down.
C is like turning the air conditioner off. It's cool enough.
B on the other hand adds something to the whole by reinforcing it. The fire is a metaphor for the writer's self-esteem, ego, good-feelingness, what-have-you.
