The definition of a point mutation states that a mutations is a point mutation if it affects only one or few nucleotides in the DNA product. We have that DNA is read in frames of 3 nucleotides. If the starting point of one frame is changed, then all frames are changed because the frames are grouped by 3 nucleotides. We have that frameshift mutations not point mutations because a shift in the reading frame affects how the rest of the DNA is read. This is the case for insertion and deletion of a nucleotide; it changes the number of nucleotides and shifts the reading frame by 1. A missense mutation is a point mutation though; it involves substituting a nucleotide with a wrong one. It involves an error only in one place and it does not change the reading frame so it affects only one nucleotide.
Answer:
a. pipette
Explanation:
The instrument used in the laboratory for measuring base is the pipette.
It is used to suck up the right amount of base for experimental purpose.
- The burette is used for measuring and holding the acid.
- The pipette is often used alongside a burette, conical flask and retort stand during a titration reaction.
- The pipette is a narrow cylindrical pipe usually made up of some special glass.
- It should be handled with caution as it is a very fragile device.
Answer:
Magnetic fields can be used to make electricity
Moving a magnet around a coil of wire, or moving a coil of wire around a magnet, pushes the electrons in the wire and creates an electrical current. Electricity generators essentially convert kinetic energy (the energy of motion) into electrical energy.

Hope this helps.
Answer:
Sparse coding
Explanation:
Sparse coding can be described or explained as a situation where items are encoded or represented by strong activation of a relatively small sets of neurons.
It should be understood that neurons code for the intensity of stimulus , and this is done in two ways which are
* Frequency coding...here, the firing rate of sensory neurons increases with increased intensity, and
* Population coding....here, the number of primary afferent responding increases.
In this case, the results derived or gotten from both Arthur's and Roger's faces supported the sparse coding.
