What type of mutation is shown in the sequence below

Biology
1 answer:
almond37 [142]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Single nucleotide deletion

Explanation:

Original DNA sequence:

A T A C G G T A

T A T G C C A T

Mutated DNA sequence:

A T C G G T A G

T A G C C A T C

​In the mutated sequence, there is a nucleotide missing. It goes from ATACGGTA to ATCGGTAG. The A nucleotide is gone. This represents a single base pair deletion.

Even though it is only one base, this changes the way the entire sequence is interpreted. The DNA transcribed into an mRNA and then translated into a protein by reading triplet codons which correspond to specific amino acids.

So while the initial sequence would be read as:

ATA, CGG, TA...

The new sequence would be read as:

ATC, GGT, AG...

So the sequence of the protein is completely altered.

The diagram below represents a flower, the reproductive structure of some plants. Most
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The stigma, a female structure which collects pollen and passes it to the ovary

Explanation:

<u>The structure represented by the letter A in the diagram is the stigma.</u>

The <u>stigma of a flower represents part of the female reproductive structure</u>. The surface of a mature stigma is sticky and as such, it is able to attract pollen grains from the anther. A pollen that lands on the stigma germinates and its pollen tube grows through the style of the stigma down to the ovule where one of the sperm cells of the pollen fertilizes the egg cell of the ovule to form a diploid zygote and the other sperm cell fuses with the polar nuclei of the ovary to form a triploid cell that eventually becomes the endosperm.

<em>The sepal and the petal are labeled as D and C in the diagram respectively while the stamen is made up of B and H.</em>
