Answer:

The types of point mutation depicted are:

1. C. Silent mutation

2. B. Nonsense mutation

Explanation:

Point mutation is known to be a mutation that actually affects a single nucleotide and it has to do with the substitution of one base for another. This substitution can occur by changing, inserting or deleting a DNA or RNA sequence. A nonsense mutation refers to a change in DNA which leads a protein to either terminate or end its translation so quickly than expected. This mutation is commonly seen in humans.

Silent mutation is known to be the mutation in DNA whereby there are no effects which are observable in an organism's phenotype. This type of mutation are seen as a specific type of neutral mutation.

Using a microscope, Quinlin notices a small green organelle inside a cell. Which of the following is most likely to occur first

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

D.The light-dependent reactions absorb sunlight and transfer the energy to electrons.

Explanation:

Firstly, the organelle that was described as small green organelle inside a cell as noticed by Quinlin is the CHLOROPLAST. Chloroplast is an organelle present in the cells of green plants, in fact, it makes plants green. Chloroplast is the organelle where the unique process of PHOTOSYNTHESIS occurs in plant cells.

However, the photosynthetic process is divided into stages namely: light-dependent and light-independent stages. The light dependent stage, which involves the production of ATP (energy carrier) and NADPH (electron carrier), must PRECEDE the light independent stage or Calvin cycle. Chloroplast contains a pigment called CHLOROPHYLL, which absorbs light energy from the SUN in order to power the light dependent stage of photosynthesis.

Hence, the light-dependent reactions, which absorb sunlight and transfer the energy to electrons must occur first in the organelle.
