Answer: These external agents of genetic change are called mutagens. Exposure to mutagens often causes alterations in the molecular structure of nucleotides, ultimately causing substitutions, insertions, and deletions in the DNA sequence.
Explanation: Point mutations are a large category of mutations that describe a change in single nucleotide of DNA, such that that nucleotide is switched for another nucleotide, or that nucleotide is deleted, or a single nucleotide is inserted into the DNA that causes that DNA to be different from the normal or wild type gene
there aren't many enzymes in food, mainly in fruits, the enzymes in friuts are very similar to ptylin found in the mouth that help break down sugar, they do not need to be ingested before they activate, a proof of this is the apple test, buy an apple, take a bite and leave it without covering it for a few minutes, you'll notice that the bitten part starts turning yellowish brown because the enzymes in the apple are already breaking it down.
In summary, they do not need to be ingested before activation, and the major characteristic of an enzyme is that they do not change after they react with (breakdown) food, so they are in the same form before and after they finish breaking down the food.
In meiosis I, the arrangement of any homologous chromosome along the center plane ( forgot the name for this) is independent of the arrangement of the other homologous chromosomes. There is thus equal probability for the chromosome to be in either of the two daughter cells after meiosis I. This is observed in meiosis 2 metaphase as well where the arrangement of each Sister chromatid about the ‘center plane’ is independent of each other. This independence observed during metaphase of meiosis I and meiosis II allows for chromatids to be in either gamete formed in equal probability, not affecting by other chromatids thus inheritance of one trait is not affected by the inheritance of another trait.
Answer:
Mitosis
Explanation:
Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus.
