If a cytosine base is substituted for by a thymine base in a DNA segment during DNA replication, the sequence could code for the wrong amino acid during translation.

The change in the sequence of DNA is known as mutation.

When a base substitution occurs in the sequence of a DNA during replication, the genetic information in the region where the substitution occurred becomes compromised.

During transcription, the process of encoding genetic information on DNA into RNA, the base substituted is also transcribed along. If cytosine is substituted by thymine, adenine is transcribed instead of guanine.

During the translation of the genetic codes, the wrong amino acids might end up being translated due to the substituted base, leading to a faulty protein.

Describe the characteristic that defines members of the kingdom Plantae. Describe four characteristics that distinguish land pla
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

1) The general characteristics of kingdom plantae are as follows −. Multicellular organisms with walled and frequently vacuolated. Eukaryotic cells. Contain photosynthetic pigments which are present in plastids. They are autotrophic mode of nutrition. Plants are non-motile, live anchored to a substrate.  Autotrophic : All plants are autotrophic, making and producing their own food and nutrients, without needing others to provide it for them.

 Multicellular : All plants all multicellular, meaning they are composed of more than one cell, which is what makes them visible to our naked eyes.

Eukaryotic: All plants are eukaryotic, meaning their cells all contain a nucleus, which is one of the organelles of the cell surrounded in a cell membrane. four characteristics that distinguish land plants from charophyte algae.

2) Alternation of generations (w/ an associated trait of multicellular, dependent embryos), walled spores produced in sporangia, multicellular gametangia, and apical meristems. These are evolved traits of land plants. Not all plants have retained these traits.

Explanation:

I added explanations inside the answer. I hope it make sense.
