Answer:

A substitution of one base for another within the sequence. A base deletion near the start of a gene. A base deletion near the end of the coding sequence, but not in the terminator codon.

Answer:

The small-scale mutation that would most likely have the least negative effect on the function of a protein is ; ( A ) A substitution of one base for another within the sequence.

A substitution of one base for another within the sequence of a protein will cause an insignificant/silent mutation within the protein sequence and this mutation will not be evident in the protein.

When a base is deleted either near the start of a gene or near the end of the coding sequence, it will have a significant effect because this will change the sequence of the DNA ( due to the deletion of at least one nucleotide ).

Hence we can conclude that the small-scale mutation that would most likely have the least negative effect on the function of a protein is ; A substitution of one base for another within the sequence.

There were 33,300 fatalities in 2015. How many deaths is that per hour ?

mojhsa [17]

Hi!

So for this problem you need to know how that there are 8,760 hours in a year. If we're trying to find how many deaths there were per hour, you'd need to divide 33,300 by 8760 to find out.

33,300/8760=3.80136986301

This means there were roughly 3.8 deaths per hour.

Hope this helps :)

Can you conclude that a = b if a and b are two sets with the same power set?

zalisa [80]

The sets A and sets B contains items called elements

It is true that the set A is equal to set B

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The sets are given as:

Set A and set B

Since the sets have the same power set, then we have:

P(A) = P(B)

The above means that:

For every element X in A, then the element is also in B

And

For every element Y not in A, then the element is also not in B

So, we can conclude that:

All subsets of the set A are subsets of the set B and vice versa

Hence, the set A is equal to set B
