A mutation is made once in every nucleotides copies

Biology
1 answer:
dimaraw [331]1 year ago
5 0

Explanation:

A mutation is made once in every <u>10 billion</u> nucleotides copied.

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes.

 

Further Explanation:

 

During reproduction other events, such as crossing over during mitosis and meiosis, mutations lead to increases in genetic variation. This variation refers to the genetic characteristics present within a species. Mutations may be either beneficial or deleterious; they are maintained within cells, as they form new traits called alleles. Beneficial mutations may confer traits that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring a protective advantage- these phenotypic differences between organisms are called adaptations.

 

Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA, which makes up the genotype, is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins which make up the phenotype of an organism. Mutations in DNA sequences affect the corresponding mRNA and thus the protein encoded.

If you measured an entire bar of soap and compared it to the piece of soap from this activity, would the bar and the piece have
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Different mass

Different volume

Same density

Explanation:

Intensive physical properties are those properties of a substance that is not dependent on amount i.e. do not change in response to changes in the amount of the substance. Intensive properties include density, temperature, boiling point etc.

On the other hand, extensive properties are those properties that are dependent on the amount of the substance. For example, mass and volume are extensive properties.

Hence, according to this question, measuring an entire bar of soap and comparing it to a piece of soap, the bar and the piece would have a:

- Different mass ( size dependent)

- Different volume (size dependent)

- Same density (size independent)

Why do the circulatory systems of land vertebrates have separate circuits to the lungs and to the rest of the body?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Because it prevents venous blood from mixing with arterial blood (which is rich in oxygen), in this way the circulation is more efficient.

Explanation:

In land vertebrates, the blood circulation is structured in two independent circuits: the pulmonary circulation, where oxygenation of the blood occurs and the elimination of the carbonic anhydride that it contains, returning back to the heart through its left atrium; and the systemic or major circulation, impelled from the left ventricle, transports the oxygenated blood and the nutrients that it assimilates as it passes through the digestive system, to the tissues of the animal, where it is charged again with anhydride carbonic and other waste substances, returning back to the heart, where it enters through the right atrium. These systems are independent and prevents venous blood (which is poor in oxygen) from mixing with arterial blood. These systems are independent and prevents venous blood (which is poor in oxygen) from mixing with arterial blood.

Joan uses a model to show how wood burns at the level of atoms and molecules. Her model tracks 840 carbon atoms that make up a s
aksik [14]

Answer:

The correct option is A. Matter is conserved during the burning of wood

Explanation:

One of the major theories of matter states that the amount of mass at the start of a reaction is equal to the amount of the mass at the end of the reaction.

As in Joan's study, he shows that the amount of carbon atoms remain 840 during each of the combustion reactions. The number of carbon atoms in wood at the start of the reaction was equal to the number of carbon atoms in carbon dioxide at the end of the reaction. Hence, Joan's model supports the theory that matter is conserved during the burning of the wood.
