This mutation type is a substitution mutation. Substitution mutations may be silent or may have adverse effects (missense mutation).
Adverse effects come about because the change in codons in mRNA transcribed from the DNA strand. A point substitution can change the amino acid being coded for in the particular polypeptide change. If that animo acid is a structural residue of the protein, the structure of the protein will be altered, which may or may not lead to a change in protein function. If that particular amino acid is a catalytic residue of the protein, it may alter the 3D conformation and charge of the active site (if protein is an enzyme) or the binding site of protein. Function of protein formed from mutated DNA will be lost or altered.

Hope this helps! :)

Which feature is not the result of a glacier carving out rock as it moves

Kryger [21]

The feature which is not the result of a glacier carving out rock as it moves is

A. Terminal Moraine

The feature which is the result of a glacier carving out rock as it moves is
A. Roche Moutonnees

Explanation:
Rôche moutonnée (or sheepback) could be a rock formation created by the passing of an ice mass. The passage of ice mass ice underlying bedrock usually leads to uneven erosional forms as a result of abrasion on the "stoss" (upstream) facet of the rock and plucking on the "lee".

A terminal ground conjointly referred to as finish ground, could be a form of ground that forms at the snout (edge) of an ice mass, marking its most advanced. At now, rubble that has accumulated by plucking and abrasion.

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

B. similar to the cells just treated with the dye - 0% dead

Explanation:

According to this question, an experiment was set up in which kidney cells were treated with a chemical for different amounts of time. Hence, the independent/manipulable variable is the CHEMICAL.

Based on the observation of the group of cells, a cell that has been damaged by the chemical will appear pink when treated with dye while a cell treated with only due but no chemical will not appear pink.

A NEGATIVE CONTROL is the group in an experiment that is not treated with the independent variable i.e. doesn't receive experimental treatment. Since the independent variable in this experiment is the CHEMICAL, the negative control will be the group that doesn't receive the chemical treatment. Hence, the negative control is similar to the cells just treated with the dye - 0% dead
