A mutation occurred in the following DNA sequence AGCCTAGCC and the mutated form is now AGCCTTAGCC. Which of the following corre

ctly describes the result of this mutation?
1.A deletion occurred so all of the amino acids added after the mutation may be wrong.

2.An insertion occurred so all of the amino acids added after the mutation may be wrong.

3.A substitution occurred so all of the amino acids added after the mutation will definitely be wrong.

4.An insertion occurred so all of the amino acids added after the mutation definitely will be different.

Answer:

Explanation:

1.A deletion mutation occurs when a wrinkle forms on the DNA template strand and subsequently causes a nucleotide to be omitted from the replicated strand.

2.This type of variant results in a shortened protein that may function improperly, be nonfunctional, or get broken down. An insertion changes the DNA sequence by adding one or more nucleotides to the gene.

3. A substitution mutation can cause the following: Change in the coding of amino acids codon to a particular stop codon resulting in an incomplete protein, which is usually non-functional. Can cause Silent mutations where a codon change can encode the same amino acid resulting in no changes in the protein synthesized.

4. when a premature nonsense or stop codon is introduced in the DNA sequence. When the mutated sequence is translated into a protein, the resulting protein is incomplete and shorter than normal. Consequently, most nonsense mutations result in nonfunctional proteins.

Which of these is an abiotic infectious agent? (science)
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Bateria

Explanation:

In humans, the flu virus and streptococcal bacteria cause infectious diseases, and they spread from person to person. In contrast, non-infectious (abiotic) disorders in humans include health conditions which are not transmitted from person to person or caused by an infectious agent

Plants participate in both short- and long-distance signaling. Explain how nerve cells show these two functions, as well. (3 poi
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Nerve cells release chemical signals into synapses between them (short distance). They also transverse their lengths with an electrical signal that can result in signal travel along a series of cells (long distance).

Explanation:

Nerve cells release neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft which are capable of affecting nearby cells such as other nerve cells and muscle cells. Neurotransmitter molecules include, among others, serotonin, acetylcholine, dopamine, norepinephrine and histamine. Moreover, the synaptic cleft is the space that separates a neuron cell and its target cell. On the other hand, neurons transmit signals through electrical impulses. Electrical impulses travel long distances in the body carried by axons of the nerves. Thus, nerve impulses connect the brain and spinal cord and they carry signals to different parts of the body.

What part of the rotifer is responsible for crushing food?
frozen [14]

Answer:

Rotifers are specialists at living in habitats where water dries up regularly.

The Monogononta, which have males, produce fertilised 'resting eggs' which can resist desiccation (drought) for long periods.[11]

The Bdelloids, who have no males, contract into an inert form and lose almost all body water, a process known as cryptobiosis. Bdelloids can also survive the dry state for long periods: the longest well-documented dormancy is nine years. After they have dried, they may be revived by adding water. In this, and several other ways, they are a unique group of animals.[12]

Explanation:

The front has a ring of cilia circling the mouth. This gave the rotifers their old name of "wheel animalules". There is a protective lorica round its body, and a foot. Inside the lorica are the usual organs in miniturised form: a brain, an eye-spot, jaws, stomach, kidneys, urinary bladder.

Rotifers have a number of unusual features. Biologists suppose that these peculiarities are adaptations to their small size and the transient (fast changing) nature of its habitats.
