Answer:

Threonine has two chiral centers.

The correct options are c. carbon b and d. carbon c

Explanation:

Chiral centers are those that have four different groups of atoms bonded to it. Carbon a has three atoms of hydrogen attached to it so it can't be a chiral carbon. It isn't the carboxyl carbon either since it is double bonded to oxygen. And the amino nitrogen does not qualify anyway because it is bonded to three different groups of atoms, not four.

Rosa drew a diagram to compare substitution mutations and insertion mutations.

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

\huge\boxed{Option A}

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Mutations:</h2>

Mutations are the changes produced in the nucleotide sequence of the genome.

There are four main types of mutations

Substitution

Insertion

Deletion

Duplication.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>DELETION:</h3>

A small segment of chromosome mat be missing. This condition is known as deletion.

For example, Normal chromosome has A B C D E F G. If deletion mutation occurs then mutated chromosome has A D E F G and B C got deleted.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>DUPLICATION:</h3>

In this condition, a part of chromosome present in exec ess to the normal chromosome.

For example, Normal Chromosome has A B C D E F G. If duplication mutation occurs, then mutated chromosome had A B C B C D E F G and B C is duplicated.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>SUBSTITUTION MUTATION:</h3>

Substitution is a type of mutation where one base pair is replaced by a different base pair.

For example, in the sequence CAAGT, if C replaces G, it is a substitution mutation.

<h3>INSERTION MUTATION:</h3>

In genetics, an insertion is the addition of one or more nucleotide base pairs into a DNA sequence.

For example, in the sequence CAAGT, if extra base G gets inserted after C, the new sequence would be CGAAGT.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2>

Both substitution and insertion mutations change the position of nucleotide thus, the type of amino acid.

Inga [223]

Answer: The atoms in a gas move at high speed.

The atoms in a gas spread in all directions.  

A gas is a state of matter in, which atoms remains in a constant motion, they do not stick together. They are free and can move in all directions. The gas molecules expands to fill the available space. Hence, they can change shape and volume. The gas atoms being in a molecular state moves fast in high speed to break away from each other, to remain in a free state.
