What is one way that a frameshift mutation could occur? (1 point)

Biology
1 answer:
erastovalidia [21]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

two nucleotides are deleted

Explanation:

Frameshift mutations arise when the normal sequence of codons is disrupted by the insertion or deletion of one or more nucleotides, provided that the number of nucleotides added or removed is not a multiple of three.

Because two nucleotides are deleted (2 is not divisble by 3), it would be a source of a frameshift mutation.

Hope this helped! :^)

What are the four carbon macromolecules the body uses and makes?
aliya0001 [1]

Living things are made of types of molecules, known as macromolecules.

There are four major classes of biological macromolecules:

carbohydrates

lipids

proteins

nucleic acids

Each of these types of macromolecules performs a wide array of important functions within the cell; a cell cannot perform its role within the body without many different types of these crucial molecules. In combination, these biological macromolecules make up the majority of a cell’s dry mass. (Water molecules make up the majority of a cell’s total mass.) All the molecules both inside and outside of cells are situated in a water-based (i.e., aqueous) environment, and all the reactions of biological systems are occurring in that same environment.

What evidence for the age of the Earth is indicated by the fact that sedimentary rock is found on mountain tops?
ruslelena [56]
Undisturbed rock formations on mountain tops are basically an indication of the Earth's age. This can be supported by the law of proposition. This law states that the youngest sediments or rock are found at the top of the sequence and the oldest are found at the bottom - given they're undisturbed. So the higher mountain tops or rocks formation are, the more we can say that the Earth is indeed very old.
