Answer:B. Insertion

Explanation: Mutation can be defined as a permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of a DNA. There are basically three types of mutation: insertion, substitution or deletion. Insertion is a type of mutation in which one or more base pairs is added to a nucleotide sequence of a DNA. Substitution involves the replacement of one base pair with another in a nucleotide sequence of a DNA while deletion involves the total removal of one or more base pairs in a nucleotide sequence. A mutation can be silent if it affects non coding segments of a DNA or if it has negligible effect on the gene function, but most times mutations are deleterious.

What explanation describes the primary function of the cell in the table?

svp [43]

Answer: C) The cell can produce energy for cellular functions.

Explanation: A cell is the functional unit of all living things. Cells are made up different parts with specialized functions. Cells take in nutrients from food and convert them to energy which is needed for other cellular functions. The specialized functions of the different parts of a cell can only be carried out if sufficient energy is provided by the cell. The functions of different parts of a cell include reproduction, absorption of nutrients and removal of substances from the cell, protein synthesis but none of these functions will be carried out if energy is not supplied.
