I need help with the same question
Answer:
C. Primary, secondary, and tertiary structures would be altered
Explanation:
Frameshift mutations refer to the mutations that change the reading frame of the gene. Frameshift mutations are mostly caused by insertion or deletion of nucleotide since addition or loss of nucleotide alters all the codons present downstream of the point of the mutation site. If frameshift mutation occurs at the beginning of the protein sequence, all the downstream amino acids would be altered.
The changed amino acid sequence would alter the primary structure of the protein. Since the secondary and tertiary structure of proteins is determined by interactions between the R groups of amino acids, their polarity, charge, etc., the altered amino acid sequence would also alter secondary, and tertiary of the protein.
Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A) symbiosis
B) ecosystem
C) community
D) population
E) biosphere
The answer is D) Population
Explanation:
Living organisms in an ecosystem are usually found in numbers living together in a given area. This is termed POPULATION in ecology. A population refers to the group of living organisms that belongs to the same species living together in the same habitat and have the ability to interbreed i.e. mate and reproduce with one another.
This is the case in this question where many sandhill cranes (large flying birds) were observed in a particular area, which represented their habitat. Asides the group of sandhill cranes living together, they were also observed to be interbreeding. This was evident in the observation of two sandhill cranes hopping up and down around their bright orange baby. This shows that members of the population are capable of mating and reproducing fertile offsprings.
This observation completes what a POPULATION is all about, hence, a population was observed.
