The correct answer is E. A cell

Explanation:

The cell is the smallest unit of life that exists and that constitutes all living organisms and body tissues including unicellular and multicellular organisms. Due to this, cells are considered as the fundamental unit of life as even the smallest and simplest living organisms are made of cells or at least made of one cell.

Cells are commonly made up of three main parts: the cell membrane which surrounds the cell and controls the substances that enter and leave it; the nucleus which is the structure within the cell that contains the nucleolus and most of the cell's DNA; and the cytoplasm that is the fluid inside the cell that contains other tiny cell particles with specific functions, such as the Golgi apparatus, mitochondria, and the endoplasmic reticulum. This applies to all cells except to prokaryotic cells because these do not contain a nucleus but a chromosome in the middle of the cell.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

1- substitution.

2- neutral.

Explanation:

The change in the genetic sequence of the organisms known as mutation. Mutations might be sudden and heritable in nature. spontaneous mutation and induced mutation are types of mutation.

A change that causes a change in single base pair of a gene sequence is called substitution mutation. The original leucine sequence is GTT and the mutated sequence is GTG. Thus T has been substituted by G.

Mutation can be beneficial, detrimental or neutral. The neutral mutation is that does not affect the physical change. Both GTT and GTG code for the same amino acid so it would be neutral.

Cervix

Janine recently had surgery on the neck, or narrow lower portion, of her uterus. Janine's surgery was performed on the cervix.  

The cervix is the narrow neck-like passage that forms the lower portion of the uterus in the human female reproductive system. The cervix joins the vagina and uterus and it is mainly made up of fibromuscular tissue. The two major parts of the cervix are ectocervix and endocervix. During menstrual cycle, the cervix opens a bit to allow the passage of menstrual flow. The cervix also dilates largely to allow the passage of baby during childbirth.
