Explain the difference between each of the following substitution mutations:

Biology
1 answer:
pentagon [3]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: silent mutation: a nucleotide base in a codon is replaced with a different base BUT the resulting amino acid isn’t affected.

Missense mutation: similar to a silent mutation, the only difference is that the switch of the nucleotide DOES result in a DIFFERENT amino acid

Nonsense mutation: a nucleotide base is changed, but that change results in a premature stop of translation

(Remember that after transcription, you are left with a strand of mRNA that Is then translated into a protein. The mRNA is read in increments of three nucleotide bases (A,U,G, or C) which is called a codon. That codon makes a single amino acid, and a strand of amino acids makes a protein)

Using a microscope, Quinlin notices a small green organelle inside a cell. Which of the following is most likely to occur first
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

D.The light-dependent reactions absorb sunlight and transfer the energy to electrons.

Explanation:

Firstly, the organelle that was described as small green organelle inside a cell as noticed by Quinlin is the CHLOROPLAST. Chloroplast is an organelle present in the cells of green plants, in fact, it makes plants green. Chloroplast is the organelle where the unique process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS occurs in plant cells.

However, the photosynthetic process is divided into stages namely: light-dependent and light-independent stages. The light dependent stage, which involves the production of ATP (energy carrier) and NADPH (electron carrier), must PRECEDE the light independent stage or Calvin cycle. Chloroplast contains a pigment called CHLOROPHYLL, which absorbs light energy from the SUN in order to power the light dependent stage of photosynthesis.

Hence, the light-dependent reactions, which absorb sunlight and transfer the energy to electrons must occur first in the organelle.
