MRNA: AUG AAU UUA GCG ACA
polypeptides: Met or start, Aan, Leu, Ala, Thr
1. The type of mutation that occurred in this strand of DNA is deletion. This may have happened because a small part of the DNA sequence was lost when broken ends were rejoined when the DNA was being repaired.
2. It is not likely that these mutated genes could produce a working protein because the polypeptides were completely changed, which would cause the protein to not work properly.
3. When a seed first absorbs water, it begins to grow. The mutation could cause the plant to be unable to absorb water. Therefore, the plant would be unable to germinate.

Answer: The amniotic egg was an evolutionary invention that allowed the first reptiles to colonize dry land more than 300 million years ago. Fishes and amphibians must lay their eggs in water and therefore cannot live far from water. But thanks to the amniotic egg, reptiles can lay their eggs nearly anywhere on dry land.

Answer:
C. They pollinate the flowers that only open at night.
Explanation:
A niche is the functional role an organism performs in the ecosystem. Simply, the question is asking for the role of nocturnal animals as pollinators.
- A pollinator is any organism the helps plants to transfer pollen grain from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another.
- This way, fertilization and crossing of genetic materials is achieved.
Nocturnal animals are animals that are very active at night. This is an evolutionary advantage for them because there is less danger at this point of the day.
Therefore, some nocturnal animals can help to pollinate flowers that only open at night.
