Answer:

AUGUCCCACGAUGGGUGA

Methionine- Serine- Histidine- Aspartate- Glycine- Stop

Explanation:

In gene expression, DNA, which is the genetic material is transcribed into mRNA, which is subsequently translated into a amino acid sequence (peptide). The transcription of DNA into mRNA follows complementary base pairing rule i.e. A-U, G-C, T-A.

The nucleotide sequence in the mRNA molecules are read in group of three nucleotide bases called CODONS. Each codon specifies an amino acid.

According to this question, a segment of DNA produces methionine, threonine, histidine, aspartate, and glycine when translated, however, a substitution mutation occurs and causes the synthesis of the segment as shown: 3' – TACAGGGTGCTACCCACT – 5'

The mRNA sequence from this mutated DNA sequence is as follows: AUGUCCCACGAUGGGUGA

During translation, the following codons specify the following amino acids:

AUG - methionine

UCC - Serine

CAC - Histidine

GAU - Aspartate

GGG - Glycine

UGA - Stop codon

Based on this, the new peptide chain when the new DNA segment is translated will be: Methionine- Serine- Histidine- Aspartate- Glycine- Stop

What is the difference between lycopodium and equisetum
Wittaler [7]

Lycopodium is a family of fern-allies . They are mostly a flowerless plants with widely branched, with little and simple, needle-like like leaves that cover the branches thickly and stem while Equisetum  usually called horsetail, snake grass because it more like a tail of a horse and its the only living genus in Equisetaceae, a family of vascular plants that reproduce by spores rather than seeds.

Sarah performs an experiment to determine the effect of nitrogen on plants. She studies the effect of nitrogen on the growth of
Aneli [31]
When Sarah performed this experiment, she changed the levels of nitrogen in order to observe the changes in the morphological features of the plant.
All of the characteristics of the plant that she observed were dependent on multiple different things, but the level of nitrogen was an independent variable that she was changing at her will.
