Mutations can affect the coding of "base pairs" in the chromosome of an individual by various means like:
1) by Deletion
2) by Duplication
3) by Translocation
4) by Inversion
After all that changes, codes deviates from normal information & can affect individual in negative way. In that manner, Mutations affect individual traits.
Hope this helps!
An example of a missense mutation in a protein-encoding gene would most likely be a neutral mutation is option B: replacement of a polar amino acid with another polar amino acid at the protein's surface.
A frequent and well-known example of a missense mutation is the blood condition sickle-cell anemia. Missense mutations exist in the DNA at a single location in sickle-cell anemia patients. A different amino acid is required in this missense mutation, which also alters the overall structure of the protein. Similarly, replacement of a polar amino acid by another polar Ami no acid at the protein's surface is a missense mutation causing change in a single site.
A neutral mutation is one whose fixation is unrelated to natural selection. Therefore, the independence of a mutation's fixation from natural selection can be used to define the selective neutrality of a mutation.

Complete question is:
Which example of a missense mutation in a protein-encoding gene would most likely be a neutral mutation?
a) Replacement of a polar amino acid with a nonpolar amino acid at the protein's outer surface
b) Replacement of a polar amino acid with another polar amino acid at the protein's surface
c) Replacement of a polar amino acid with another polar amino acid in the protein's interior
d) Replacement of a polar amino acid with a nonpolar amino acid in the protein's interior
Answer:
Internal response; when a person is infected by a bacteria or virus, the immune system springs into action to fight against the infections. Geotropism and phototropism are dealing with plants and they way they grow, while fight or flight is a physiological reaction by the human body in stressful situations-- so they are incorrect.
Explanation:
If you get it right, can I have brainliest? :)
Animals use the respiratory system to breathe in oxygen and other gases and expel gases like CO2, right? O2 in, CO2 out.
That's how the food chain works. There isn't much to it.
