Explain how silent mutations affect the structure and function of the protein

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

Answer:

Silent mutations do not affect protein function

Explanation:

A mutation is defined as any alteration in the genetic material of a cell of a living organism. Moreover, a silent mutation refers to any mutation that does not alter the phenotype of the cell/organism (they are evolutionary neutral mutations). Silent mutations are base substitutions that do not alter the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein, and therefore these mutations do not alter protein function.

A gas delivers 874 J of heat and then has 159 J of work done upon it. The change in internal energy of the gas is
Nesterboy [21]

The change in internal energy of this gas sample is equal to: c. 715 J.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Quantity of heat = 874 J.
  • Work done = 159 J.

<h3>What is the First Law of Thermodynamics?</h3>

Mathematically, the the First Law of Thermodynamics is given by this formula:

\Delta H = Q-W

Where;

  • \Delta H is the change in internal energy.
  • Q is the quantity of heat.
  • W is the work done.

Substituting the parameters into the formula, we have;

\Delta H =874-159\\\\\Delta H = 715

Change in internal energy (ΔH) = 715 Joules.

In pea plants the allele for tall plants in dominant to the allele for short plants, and the allele for purple flower colour is
Tom [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 4. ttPp

Explanation:

Given - tall is dominant over short pea plant

let assume T is dominant and t is short which is recessive

Similarly, P for dominant purple flower and p for white flower

The offspring has a short plant which means it has both t allele or recessive allele for the height of a plant by the cross of a true-breeding purple and true-breeding white:

    P   P

p   Pp Pp

p   Pp Pp

This means the offspring would have a heterozygous case for the genotype of the flower of the pea plant

Thus, the correct answer is ttPp
