A section of DNA encodes a gene for an enzyme involved in cellular metabolism. If a mutation event occurs that results in the de
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The correct answer would be C. The protein synthesized will contain many erroneous amino acids since the loss of one base will shift the reading of the encoded base sequence.

Deletion mutation that does not occur in the multiple of three bases can results in frame-shift mutation.

It changes the reading frame of nucleotide in DNA. Thus, the reading frame of codons in mRNA would also change.

Consequently, the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain would change or alter. Thus, a protein would contain many erroneous amino acids.

An example of the same is shown below in the image.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

B) Coating of microbe to aid phagocyte recognition

Explanation:

Opsonization is the process and mechanism which targets the foreign body and helps in the recognition of the pathogen by the phagocytic cells such as the macrophages and dendritic cell.

The opsonization enhances the process of phagocytosis as the opsonin substances which could be the antibodies, proteins or other molecules which could be easily recognised by the phagocytic cells gets attached to the pathogen.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Opsonization is the coating of a particle with proteins that facilitate phagocytosis of the particle by tissue macrophages and activated follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) as well as binding by receptors on peripheral blood cells

erik [133]

Answer:

Protista

Explanation:

  1. Firstly, it cannot be bacteria because bacteria is prokaryotic with no membrane bound organelles. And it's cell wall is made of murein (peptidoglycan).
  2. It certainly isn't a virus virus because a virus has no true cellular structure.
  3. Let's see why we ruled out the other 3 eukaryotic kingdoms:
  • It can't be an animal because animal cells don't have cell walls and are multicellular.
  • It can't be fungi because its cell wall is made of chitin, not cellulose.
  • It can't be a plant because plants are all multicellular.

just olya [345]

Answer:

Circulatory system remove waste from the cell and provide clean blood to the cell.

Explanation:

During cellular respiration, lungs inhale oxygen which stored in the alveoli. The red blood cells contains hemoglobin that carries deoxygenated blood containing carbondioxide from the cell in the veins to the heart and unload this carbondioxide gas in the alveoli of the lungs and load oxygenated blood having oxygen from the alveoli through capillaries in order to provide oxygen to the cells that is necessary for the survival of humans. Platelets are the type of cells that helps in blood clotting whereas white blood cells provides immunity against pathogens.
