1. A mudslide wipes out the side of a thriving hill: This is negative as many trees and other organisms will get destroyed.
2. A volcano erupts, covering the nearby land with lava: This is negative as molten and extremely hot lava can cause serious damage to its surroundings.
3. A forest is rapidly growing new plant life: This is positive because new plants are being grown.
4. Humans remove wolves from a national park to protect surrounding homes: This is positive for humans because humans will be safe but it is negative for the eco system as removal of wolves can upset the eco system cycle.
5. A dam is built in the middle of a river ecosystem to supply water to a nearby town: This is positive for humans as a new water resource is being developed for humans but negative for aquatic organisms as the dam can hamper their ecosystem and can cause pollution in water.
<h3>Question from alternative source</h3>
Many different types of mutations can occur within the body. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that is caused by different mutations within the CFTR gene. One mutation in the CFTR gene that leads to cystic fibrosis causes translation to end earlier in the gene sequence. Which type of mutation causes this translation error that leads to cystic fibrosis?
- silent
- missense
- nonsense
- deletion
Answer:
Nonsense
Explanation:
Nonsense mutations describe mutations that produce a premature stop codon. The stop codons are UAG, UAA, and UGA. A way in which this could arise is, for example, if there was a substution of a nucleotide in the mRNA codon UAC (which codes for the amino acid Tyrosine) to the nucleotide UAG (which codes for a stop codon).
The translation machinery would reach this codon, which signals that translation should be terminated. This would mean that the mRNA would be released, and a truncated (shortened) version of the amino acid would be produced. This is likely to be non-functional, and may even be marked for destruction by the cell.
Muscles pectoralis, an enormous muscle that ventilates beginning from shoulder to breastbone. The serratus foremost is named for its connection deep down and its source and muscle filaments. The pectoralis major is named for its size and area in the body.
A strand of DNA
DNA is used to find the mRNA, so the mRNA can be used to find a strand of DNA.
Due to their structure and function they are differ from each other
