How will the change in pH impact the functioning of cells? (Hint: Explain which biomolecules and what types of bonds in these bi
Effectus [21]

Answer:

A change in pH will cause many cellular processes to be disrupted because they affect the biomolecules (protein and nucleic acid) responsible for these processes.

Explanation:

pH refers to the degree of acidity or alkalinity. In a cell, the structures and processes that occur in them are impossible without the biomolecules, which are carbohydrate, protein, lipids and protein.

However, unfavorable conditions like a change in pH can cause the structure of some of these biomolecules to be affected. Proteins are made up of amino acids, which gives them their shape that is peculiar to their functioning. Also, nucleic acids such as DNA are composed of nucleotides responsible for their functioning.

A change in pH will cause the bonds of the protein to be disrupted, hence altering its shape and ultimately its functioning. Likewise, the hydrogen bonds in the DNA will be broken in the presence of a high pH causing the DNA to be dysfunctional.

When these biomolecules are affected, the vital functions that they perform in a cell, which is key to the cell's survival are disrupted) are likewise affected. Therefore, the cell is affected negatively.

if a mutation occurs in the somatic tissue, approximately how many of the gametes will carry the mutation?
Mrac [35]

None: Only those mutations that occur in the germ line and result in gametes will have a chance of being passed on to progeny. An alteration in DNA that occurs after conception.

Somatic mutations can occur in any of the body's cells except germ cells (sperm and egg) and are therefore not passed on to children. These alterations can (but not always) cause cancer or other diseases. Mutations in somatic cells are called somatic mutations. Because they do not occur in the cells that give rise to gametes, the mutation is not transmitted to the next generation sexually. Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs and 2 sex chromosomes that may or may not form a pair. This is the 2n or diploid condition. Human gametes have 23 chromosomes, each of 23 unique chromosomes, one of which is a sex chromosome. Somatic cells are the cells in the body other than sperm and eggs (called germ cells). In humans, somatic cells are diploid, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent. Mutations in a somatic cell occur in somatic cells and are transmitted by mitosis, resulting in cancer. However, mutations in a gamete are passed on by meiosis, resulting in mutated offspring. A genetic mutation occurs during DNA replication, and chromosomal mutations occur during meiosis.
