Answer:
The correct answer is option b. "cause a change in the reading frame of mRNA codons".
Explanation:
Frameshift mutations are among the most drastic mutations because in most cases, result in the translation of a completely different protein. Frameshift mutations are the result of insertions or deletion of one or more nucleotides, resulting in a change in the reading frame of mRNA codons. In consequence, the ribosome translates a different amino acid sequence, based on the new reading frame of mRNA codons.
I think it would be a c shaped backbone
<span>The lac operon has three genes that encode for proteins that break down lactose into galactose and glucose. When there is no lactose around, it wouldn't make sense for the prokaryote to make these proteins as it would be a waste of energy. So, when there is no lasctose around, the lac repressor binds the operator region of the operon, which inhibits RNA polymerase's ability to bind and start gene expression. However, when lactose is available, it binds to the lac repressor and deactivates it via allosteric inhibition. Once the lac repressor is gone, the genes can be transcribed into mRNA which can be translated into proteins which can go and break down the lactose. </span>
In the given case, most probably the top layer is of oil.
As oil is not soluble in water, it will float on the top of the water surface, in the given case it is the beaker. The oil will always float on top of the water, as it is less dense in comparison to water. The water and oil do not mix as the molecules of water are more fascinated with each other than in comparison to the molecules of oil.
As water is polar and oil is nonpolar, their molecules are not attracted to each other.
