Answer: e. generation time
Explanation:
The generation time is the time that is required by the bacterial cell or cell of the any other organism required to be doubled in number during a specified or constant period of time. The generation time can vary in different organisms.
For example, the E.coli cell divides in every 20 minutes, hence, the generation time of the E.coli is 20 minutes and for the Staphylococcus aureus it is seen as 30 minutes.
Answer:
Explanation: Sponges are animals with dense skeletons that are highly adapted to their environments.
The α-amino group of many amino acids is transferred to α-ketoglutarate to form glutamate, which is then oxidatively deaminated to yield ammonium ion (NH4+).
Answer:
D) Silent mutation on second codon, third amino acid changed from ILE to ASN.
Explanation:
Silent mutations are usually point mutation where you change one nucleotide. Since, the nucleotide changed is the third position, it does not affect the protein being manufactured (it will still put the amino acid Ala) [look up the codon redundancy on youtub.e to understand how awesome nature is!]
On the other hand, the other mutation introduced is Missense mutation where a different Amino acid is added due to change in codon (goes from ILE to ASN).
