Answer:
B) missense mutation
Explanation:
A type of base substitution that results in the replacement of one amino acid by another is called missense mutation. Missense mutations affect the mutated proteins in several ways. It may alter the amino acid composition of the active site of enzymes and render the enzymes inactive.
The wild type polypeptide chain has the following sequence of amino acids: Met-Ala-Gln-Arg-Glu-Leu. The mutated polypeptide has glycine in place of arginine. The rest of the amino acids are the same in wild type and mutated protein. This means that the mutation changed the genetic code of arginine into the genetic code of glycine resulting in the incorporation of glycine in position 4. This is an example of a missense mutation.
The respiratory and circulatory systems are close together by working and relying with each other. The respiratory system imports oxygen from the air and that oxygen goes through out the body by the circulatory system pumping the oxygen. That creates carbon dioxide, which the respiratory exports from the body.
Answer:
A) Times of major climate change
Explanation:
The geological time scale is based on major changes in Earth's climate history. This is because of the reason that climate governs the geological processes on Earth. In geology, we study the ages with the help of stratigraphical data where sediment deposition and the fossils it is hosting are the keys to understand the environmental conditions at that particular time. These conditions didn't change significantly unless the climate was changed. An example is the extinction of dinosaurs during K/T boundary event (mass extinction). The most likely reason is the hitting of a meteorite on Earth that changed the climate of Earth in a short period making it least favorable for many organisms to survive.
On the other hand, the occurrence of huge events cannot be used to establish a geological time scale because sometimes, the changes happen more slowly.
Similarly, shifts in the Earth orbits are cyclic however geological time scale doesn't reflect cyclic changes. The same climate can establish in different ages but these events are not used not as a criterion to establish a geological time scale.
In the end, the time span of humans on Earth is very small when compared with the overall geological time scale. Humans record exists from Pleistocene (2,580,000 to 11,700 years ago) to today whereas geological time scale starts in the Archean Eon (4.0 billion to 2.5 billion years ago).
The formula for speed is: v=x/t, where v is speed, x is distance, and t is time.
v=27/9
v=3
B) 3 m/s
