The specific heat capacity represents the amount of energy, in joules, that it takes to raise the temperature of one gram of a given substance by one degree Celsius. Put more simply, the amount of energy it takes to raise a quantity of water by one degree Celsius would raise an equivalent quantity of sand by a little over 14 degrees. Likewise, sand does not need to lose nearly as much energy as water to produce equivalent cooling. Since it "holds" a lot less energy, it cools down much faster than sand.
Indeed, liquid water has an unusually high specific heat capacity. Because it is much less prone to temperature swings than other common substances, large bodies of water often work to moderate temperatures in a region. This helps to explain, for example, why average temperatures fluctuate very little over the year in San Francisco, a city whose climate is heavily influenced by the water that nearly surrounds it.
Answer:
This question is incomplete
Explanation:
This question is incomplete because of the absence of the chart referred to in the question. However, what appears to be the case is that the three nitrogenous bases represent codons (and the missing chart is the codon chart). The mutation that has the potential to cause more damage will be the one that would change the amino acid formed from the codon change.
A. CAU to CAC: The codons CAU and CAC both form the amino acid histidine and thus is not expected to cause a major damage.
B. UGU to UGC: The codons UGU and UGC both form the amino acid cysteine and thus is not expected to cause a major damage.
C. UCU to UUU: <u>Codon UCU forms the amino acid serine while the codon UUU forms the amino acid phenylalanine</u>. Thus, this eventual change in the amino acid formed has the potential to cause a major damage and thus option C is the correct option.
NOTE that a codon is a sequence of three DNA/RNA nucleotides that corresponds to a single amino acid.
