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.

why do all organisms take in matter and rearrange atoms through chemical reactions to form molecules essential for life?
Tom [10]
Cause living things can not directly use most of matter which they found in nature. For example carbon, all organism use carbon in complex structure, that is in compound or macromolecule(glucose,fructose,amino acid). we can not directly earn ATP from C which we found in soil/other sources.

Answer:

Males are XY(have one X chromosome) so, when it comes to X linked diseases, they express everything that is on that chromosome. They only need one copy. Females need 2 copies of the recessive allele in order to have the same condition.
