Answer:
A mutation that cause changes to short stretches of nucleotides. These mutations affect the specific genes that provide instructions for various functional molecules, including protein . changes in these molecules can have impact on any number of an organism's physical characteristics
Answer: Both the mouse and human beings are encoding the proteins having similar functions.
Explanation:
The CFTR gene in the mouse and CFTR gene in the human beings encode proteins that perform similar function,this is so because if the results are same then it means that both mouse and human beings are encoding the protein that have similar function.
Option A is incorrect because both humans and mouse are eukaryotes so they have introns and because of that even if the gene sequences are different they can still encode protein.
Option B is incorrect because amino acid sequences can be similar inorder to have the similar function. If glutamic acid is replaced by aspartic acid, it won't have different function the function will remain same. So, identical amino acid sequences are not required. They can be similar too.
Water (H2O) takes up more than 60% of the body thus the answer is C
Jet streams are fast moving air currents much like how a river is a fast moving water current so the answer is jet streams.
