Answer:
A mutation that causes a single letter change in the DNA sequence can affect your protein structure and function because the sequence of letters in a gene determines the sequence of amino acids in the protein that it encodes. A single letter change in the DNA alters the mRNA which alters the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein and sometimes that can cause serious results if it changes the way a protein works.
ex. sickle cell disease - a single letter swap in the gene that encodes the hemoglobin molecule results in deformed red blood cells
Hope that helps.
The Alveolar macrophages, Cilia and the mucus layer
The answer should be B). Helpful traits passed to the next generation through reproduction.
B is correct because in natural selection, if a population cannot adapt over time it will be “naturally selected” and die off, or be near extinction due to non-adaptive ness. Hope this helped!
<h2>Evolutionary analysis of organisms</h2>
Explanation:
- Some organisms, which were characterized together determined to genetically very different .
- Using the analysis of RNA developed by Carl Woese, scientists are now able to classify the human evolution
- living things based on genetic information instead of expressed characteristics.
- Genetic information is more specific and can give clues as to the evolutionary ancestry of organisms.
- That is the reason adding of various domains in previous system of classification is allowed for a comparison of species genetic code
