A point mutation is a mutation that affects only a single nucleotide of a nucleic acid. They involve substitution of one base for another which changes the complementary base as well in DNA, they may also involve insertions and deletions of a single base pair. I therefore think the point mutations in a DNA sequence may profoundly have an effect on the synthesis of proteins, or may also have no effect on protein synthesis at all. These mutations can be beneficial to an organism, however they are more commonly neutral or harmful.
Repair and Maintenance. Protein is termed the building block of the body.
Energy. Protein is a major source of energy.
Hormones. Protein is involved in the creation of some hormones.
Enzymes.
Transportation and Storage of Molecules.
Antibodies.

Answer:
1. BbRr
2. Black, rough fur
3. bbRR
Explanation:
1. The genotype of the parents can be seen at the top of the cross "BbRr". The genotype is what alleles the parents have. In this case, it is the alleles of two different genes - for color and texture of fur. The genotype gives rise to 4 possible allele combinations that an offspring can inherit (BR, Br, bR or br)
2. The dominant allele is usually displayed as a capital letter, and the recessive as lowercase. Without further information, we will assume this is the case. The parents are heterzygous for both traits, meaning they each carry a dominant and recessive allele for both traits. That means the dominant allele will be expressed in the phenotype. Therefore, the guinea pigs will have black, rough fur.
3. Empty box shown in the attachment. We simply read the column and row of alleles that are contributing to this offspring's genotype. We can see looking at the square that from one parent (top) the baby will inherit bR, and from the other parent (left) it will inherit bR as well. This means the baby's genotype will be bbRR
In this experiment, researchers compared how fast the junco populations adapted.
<h3>What is the focus of the study?</h3>
This study focuses on the adaption process of Juncos (a specific bird population) in urban environments and how they behave in terms of stress and boldness behavior (interest in exploring unknown areas).
<h3>How did the study work?</h3>
In this study, scientists compared the behavior of a population of birds in an urban area with the behavior of another population of birds that lived in a novel urban area to determine the adaptation process of the second population.
Note: This question is incomplete because the information about the study is missing; here is the name of the possible study: Boldness behavior and stress physiology in a novel urban environment suggest rapid correlated evolutionary adaptation

Answer:
Option A, The animal can only live in Australia
Explanation:
At present the Koala are found in several states of Australia such as
a) Queensland
b) NSW
c) Victoria
d) South Australia
Though the Koala is found on the eucalyptus trees of the temperate rain forest , they are only found in Australian geographies . There are several other place on planet earth where there is rainforest with eucalyptus trees and temperate climate, even though the Koalas are limited to Australia.
Hence Option A is correct.
