Answer: Mutations in genetic code occurs when DNA is being duplicated.Any changes in the base pairs leads to mutations by trasition or transversion. Change in amino acid leads to change in sequence and thus, mutation. This si carried on to new generation, if it takes place in germ cells.
Explanation:
Answer:
The initial step in the formation of an aminoacyl-tRNA is activation of the amino acid by reaction with ATP
Explanation:
In protein synthesis, the first step involves the formation of an aminoacyl-tRNA. This reaction is catalyzed by the the Mg²⁺-dependent enzymes known as aminoacyl t-RNA synthetases and occurs in two steps.
The first step of the reaction of the formation of an aminoacyl-tRNA is the activation of the amino acid by the attachment of an AMP molecule formed from the hydrolysis of ATP to AMP and pyrophosphate. The aminoacyl adenylate intermediate is bound to the enzyme in this initial step. Subsequently, in the second step of the activation of the amino acid, the aminoacyl adenylate intermediate is then transferred to its specific tRNA. The pyrophosphate formed in the first step is hydrolyzed to 2 phosphate molecules by a pyrophosphatase.
The overall reaction step is illustrated below:
Amino acid + tRNA + ATP -----> aminoacyl-tRNA +AMP + 2Pi
Homeostasis is the process by which organisms maintain internal environment constant. Anaplasia is the lack of differentiation of neoplastic cells. Histology is the study of the microscopic structures of tissues and a histologist is a person who has studied histology. Atresia is the absence of a normal opening or failure of a structure to be tubular. Therefore the correct answer is Homeostasis
If scientists believe that the newly discovered gene has two alleles A and a and that the alleles show incomplete dominance, the best way to prove this is to look for subjects who are homozygous with respect to the different alleles. The offsprings will all have the genotype of Aa and if indeed, the alleles show incomplete the dominance, the traits of the first generation will not manifest completely but a mixture of two will.
