Answer:

A) Chromosomes are made of DNA

C) Alleles are the different forms of a gene that can exist

D) Chromosomes contain genes that control the inheritance of traits.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are long molecules of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that contain part (or all) of the genetic material of an organism. Humans contain 46 chromosomes organized in 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes (22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes, X and Y). Moreover, a gene is a physical segment of a chromosome that contains the information to encode a protein. Alleles are different forms of a gene  (i.e., gene variants) that may be caused by mutations or genetic recombination. Humans are diploid organisms (2N: 46), and therefore we have two copies of each gene (alleles), one on each homologous chromosome.

A random mutation occurs and the GGA codon is changed to GGU. What effect does this substitution have on the amino acid being ca
salantis [7]

Answer:

Instead of arginine codon, proline condon would be coded.

Explanation:

GCA encodes codes for glycine while on the other hand codon to GGU, GGC, or GGG encodes for glycine.

This substitution will lead to generation of complementary code “Proline” in the complementary mRNA or DNA strand.  

The codon CCT, CCC, CCA, CCG encodes for proline. If this mutation would not have occurred then Arginine would have been encoded in the complementary codon  with base structure of CGT, CGC, CGA, CGG

What is waters role in light reactions
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

water act as a reactant in light reaction.

Explanation:

Water undergo hydrolysis in presence of sunlight to form proton(H+) and hydroxyl ion(OH-) ion. The OH- ion liberates electron to reaction center of photosystem 1 thereby exciting the later .The excited photosystem then donates that extra electron to the primary electron acceptor and from the primary electron acceptor the electron moves through various electron carriers to generate ATP .

    Basically water act as reducing agent in photosynthesis process.

What is true about relative humidity?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

D. It is the general term used to describe the amount of water vapor in the air

Explanation:

It's been a while since I've taken meteorology (2 years), but I think this is the correct answer because humidity in general refers to the amount of water vapor in the air and as we are discussing relative humidity, it cannot indicate the actual quantity of water vapor in the air (thus ruling out B). Therefore, D makes the most sense. I believe C refers to adiabatic cooling.
