The R group is what allows amino acids to form macromolecules with different properties. every amino acid has the same basic structure, the only difference is what the R group is made up of. The similarities allow the amino acids to form a chain while the differences allows them to have different functions. Hope this helped!
B. It provides information about why certain measurements are made in an experiment
From experience, to be able to have background research helps in the design of an experiment because it would tell you what is being measured in a experiment. Without the background information, my whole class got lost on what to do until my teacher told us what we had to measure and how we could measure the experiment.
Answer:
Deforestation
Climate Change
Invasive Species
Explanation:
Seventy percent of the Earth's plant and animals dwell in forests, and deforestation affects them directly. Once their habitat is lost, they are on their way to extinction.
Climate change also causes extinctions not only as a result of species intolerance to high temperature, but more commonly via a variety of related factors that alter a species’ interactions with other species.
Invasive species invade foreign territory. They use resources that the other species depend on. Then naturally one of the species will die off.
Addition or deletion of nucleotides in any number besides 3 results in a "frame-shift mutation."
This is because every 3 nucleotides of DNA/mRNA exons codes for a single amino acid in the synthesis of a protein. This triplet codon theory means that if 3 nucleotides are added or deleted then an amino acid will be added or lost, but subsequent codons and amino acids will still be read correctly.
However, if any number of nucleotides other than 3 are added or removed, then the codons following the mutation will be out of "sync," in terms of the reading order.
Hence it is called a frame-shift mutation because it shift the reading frame when translating nucleic acids into proteins. Frame shifts will lead to the wrong amino acids being adding in the wrong order for the rest of the code after the mutation.
The provided question has marked options incorrectely the correct order as follows:
A) Expose putative DNA repair mutant plants to ionizing radiation L and see if they survive less well than wild-type plants.
B) Measure the amount of post-translational processing that occurs in the putative DNA repair mutant plants.
C) Measure the somatic mutation rates for the putative DNA repair mutant plants.
D) Expose the putative DNA repair mutant plants to a deaminating agent and select those that have a decreased mutation rate.
E) Measure the germline spontaneous and induced mutation rates for the putative DNA repair mutant plants.
Answer:
The correct answer is: A), C) and E)
Explanation:
The breeder wants to isolate the mutants in tomatoes that are defective in DNA repair, to identify such plants breeder should follow these methods as they will allow best to identifying the defective tomatoes-
Measure the somatic mutation rates for the putative DNA repair mutant plants.
Measure the germline spontaneous and induced mutation rates for the putative DNA repair mutant plants.
Expose putative DNA repair mutant plants to ionizing radiation L and see if they survive less well than wild-type plants. This will allow the breeder to see and analyze the ability of DNA repair in tomatoes
