Deletion is a type of mutation involving the loss of genetic material. It can be small, involving a single missing DNA base pair, or large, involving a piece of a chromosome.

what sources of information are considered reliable according to the strict standards of scientific investigation?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Peer-reviewed

Explanation:

If  a scientific report is peer-reviewed it means that the contents of the report are corroborated by other scientists hence the veracity of the information is high and is very reliable. The best scientific reports clearly describe the experiments that were conducted to culminate to a particular scientific conclusion. The experiment is able to be replicated by another scientist and if the same results are achieved then the results are corroborated and the report positively reviewed.

What are the two main ways a star can live based on it mass?
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Main sequence stars fuse hydrogen atoms to form helium atoms in their cores. About 90 percent of the stars in the universe, including the sun, are main sequence stars. These stars can range from about a tenth of the mass of the sun to up to 200 times as massive.

Stars start their lives as clouds of dust and gas. Gravity draws these clouds together. A small protostar forms, powered by the collapsing material. Protostars often form in densely packed clouds of gas and can be challenging to detect.

"Nature doesn't form stars in isolation," Mark Morris, of the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLS), said in a statement. "It forms them in clusters, out of natal clouds that collapse under their own gravity."

Smaller bodies — with less than 0.08 the sun's mass — cannot reach the stage of nuclear fusion at their core. Instead, they become brown dwarfs, stars that never ignite. But if the body has sufficient mass, the collapsing gas and dust burns hotter, eventually reaching temperatures sufficient to fuse hydrogen into helium. The star turns on and becomes a main sequence star, powered by hydrogen fusion. Fusion produces an outward pressure that balances with the inward pressure caused by gravity, stabilizing the star.

How long a main sequence star lives depends on how massive it is. A higher-mass star may have more material, but it burns through it faster due to higher core temperatures caused by greater gravitational forces. While the sun will spend about 10 billion years on the main sequence, a star 10 times as massive will stick around for only 20 million years. A red dwarf, which is half as massive as the sun, can last 80 to 100 billion years, which is far longer than the universe's age of 13.8 billion years. (This long lifetime is one reason red dwarfs are considered to be good sources for planets hosting life, because they are stable for such a long time.)

If all 5' and 3' splice sites were always used to process the pre-mRNA into mRNA, how many possible distinct mRNA sequences woul
lord [1]

The question lacks the diagram. The diagram has been attached below.

Answer:

1.

Explanation:

Exons may be defined as the coding region of the RNA whereas introns are the non coding region of the RNA. The introns must be removed out from the RNA to makes it functional molecule.

The splicing of the given molecule results in the formation of single mRNA. The 1 splicing of the introns remove intron A whereas the second splicing results in the removal of intron B. The functional mRNA consists of the mRNA with exon 1,2 and 3.

Thus, the answer is 1.

arsen [322]

The correct answer is: a. A site in DNA that recruits the RNA Polymerase

Promoters are regions of DNA molecule located near the transcription start codons of genes, usually upstream on the DNA with the function to initiate DNA transcription. Promoters contain specific DNA sequences (e.g. TATA boxes) that are binding sites for the enzyme RNA polymerase and transcription factors that recruit RNA polymerase. Transcription factors can regulate gene expression and act as activators or repressors depending on sequences that attach to specific promoters.
