Such plants are called vascular plants.
Answer:
The type of mutation responsible for changing a base in the mRNA strand, without changing the coding aminoacid or protein, is called a <u>silent</u> mutation.
Explanation:
In a silent mutation occurs the change of a nitrogenous base in one of the codons that encodes an aminoacid, without changing the aminoacid or altering the structure or function of the protein to be synthesized.
In this type of mutations the change of the base does not mean the change of the aminoacid, because some aminoacids can be coded with more than one codon. In the case of Leucine, the codons that encode it are CUU, CUC, CUG or CUA, so even if a base changes, the final protein will be the correct one.
For the other options:
- <u><em>Missense</em></u><em>: the change of the base in the DNA chain implies the change of the codon in the mRNA and of the encoded aminoacid, in that way a structural and functional alteration of the synthesized protein occurs. </em>
- <u><em>Nonsense</em></u><em>: the change in the nitrogenous base in the DNA leads to the coding of a termination codon, so that the protein is ultimately incomplete.</em>
- <u><em>Insertion</em></u><em>: in this case there is the addition of more nitrogenous bases to the DNA chain, with respect to the original one.</em>
<span>The mRNA is made by using the gene AAACAGGTCCCA as a template for complementary base-pairing. The pairings are: G (Guanine) to C (Cytosine), C to G, T (Thymine) to A (Adenine), and A to U (Uracil, as Tyhmine doesn't occur in the RNA). The resulting mRNA is UUUGUCCAGGGU.</span>

</span>Cones perceive
light in color while rods perceive light in black and white.
<span>2.
</span>Rods can perceive dim light, unlike cones. The rods are located at the edges of the eyes. This is why it easier to perceive an image in the dark through
the corner of the eyes.

partially open to the surrounding vitreous
fluid while those of the rods are closed.
Answer:
E. climax
Explanation:
Even though it is not something that is very common in nature, there are still certain exceptions where certain communities manage to reach a point of equilibrium. This basically is a community of small number of dominant prominent species that create a stable ecosystem. This state of equilibrium is known as climax community. This type of community appears when the web of biotic interactions between the organisms becomes so intricate that there is no possibility of other species to be admitted in it.
