Answer:
In areas of Africa where malaria is prevalent the number of sickle cell cases remains consistent generation after generation. ---- support the hypothesis.
In Canada the incident of sickle cell anemia has been increasing in the population. ----- contradicts the hypothesis.
Explanation:
In areas of Africa where malaria is widespread the number of sickle cell cases remains consistent generation after generation while on the other hand, In Canada the incident of sickle cell anemia are lower in the population because of environmental condition is not good for increase in malarial disease. In Africa, the environment is suitable for the mosquitoes that causes malaria so there is high increase of sickle cell anemia in the population.
Answer:
introduces a premature stop codon into the mRNA
Explanation:
A nonsense mutation is a mutation in which an amino acid–specifying codon is changed into a termination codon or stop codon. A stop codon is a codon that does not code for any amino acid and serves to terminate the process of protein synthesis as ribosomes encounter it on the mRNA.
There are three stop codons: UAA, UAG, UGA. A nonsense mutation introduces a stop codon in place of an amino acid encoding codon. It results in the formation of truncated protein which is shorter than the normal protein. Truncated proteins are mostly nonfunctional.
Answer:
Chordates share some common traits. At some point in their life cycle, they have a notochord, a nerve cord, and pharyngeal (fayr uhn JEE uhl) slits in the neck or throat. The notochord is a flexible rod that supports the animal's back. ... Sharks are one type of vertebrate animal that have backbones made of cartilage.
