Mutation is a sudden change that occurs in the gene sequences. Mutation can have both positive or negative effect on living organisms. It can lead to disorders and also one of the ways that causes evolution of the species.

Due to mutation, the gene sequences changes due to which the amino acids encoded during the process of translation also changes. If different proteins are formed then the function that was supposed to be performed by the proteins of non-mutated genes varies.

Explain why an envelope virus that simply leaks out of an infected cell can be worse than a virus that quickly lyses and kills t
o-na [289]

Answer:

The enveloped viruses are resistant to disinfectants.

Explanation:

The outer covering or the envelope in the virus comes from the infected cell. This envelope is formed by the process called as budding off, from the host cell. The envelope that covers the virus provides resistance to various disinfectants and prevent virus from damage. The outer coat (envelope) is formed of a small part of cell membrane.

The virus that lyses and kills the cell immediately is less worse than the enveloped virus. The virus that kills cells immediately prevents the host cell from continuously synthesizing new virus particles. Thus, no more viral particles can be produced by the host cell. So, envelope viruses are worse that viruses that directly kills the host cell.

   (ii) malate synthase (glyoxylate to malate)

c)  Glyoxylate cycle do no exist in animals

Explanation:

b) in the glyoxylate cycle isocitrate lyase helps in conversion of  isocitrate to glyoxylate. Also, helps in conversion of glyoxylate to malate by using malate synthase.

c)   Glyoxylate cycle do no exist in animals, it only exist in plants and bacteria. This is because they can produce glucose from acetyl-CoA in required amounts.They have the ability to change acetyl-CoA from fat into glucose. But in animals, this mechanism is not possible.

natima [27]

The correct answer is option A, that is, a landfill in the region of nonporous bedrock.  

A permanent waste disposal facility where the wastes are put into the ground and covered with a layer of plastic, soil, or both is known a landfill. A secure chemical landfill refers to a landfill developed in the region of nonporous bedrock.

A secure chemical landfill is a prudently engineered depression in the ground or constructed on the top of the ground, signifying a football stadium into which wastes are dumped. The objective is to inhibit any water-related or hydraulic association between the surrounding environment and the wastes, mainly groundwater.

Freud considered that the content of the dreams is associated with fulfillment of wish and recommended that dreams possess two kinds of content. These are latent content and manifest content. The actual literal subject matter of the dream is known as the manifest content, while the underlying significance of these symbols is the latent content.
