Answer:

Option). duplication.

Explanation:

Mutations are permanent changes in DNA, due to change in its nucleotide sequence. A mutation that occurs due to replication or duplication of a portion of genetic material is known as duplication.  

As altered sequence in given bacterium represents duplication of three guanine nucleotides, the type of mutation that caused this sequence change is duplication.

Original sequence: act<u>ggg</u>atcct

Altered sequence:  atcggggggatcct

Thus, the correct answer is 'duplication.'

There are 6 molecules of O2.



"O2" is the formula for one molecule oxygen, which has 2 atoms.

The subscript (small) "2" tells you how many atoms are in the molecule.

The coefficient is the big number tells you the number of molecules.

In 6O2, there are 12 atoms in total (6 molecules of 2 atoms each).

1. You are studying an integral membrane protein of the plasma membrane. It has a single transmembrane domain and the N-terminal
Drupady [299]

Answer:

A 22 to 25 amino acid sequence present in the central section of the protein, which gives rise to an alpha helix in the membrane is known as the stop-transfer anchor sequence. The sequence plays an essential function in targeting the protein towards the plasma membrane. On the other hand, it also ceases targeting of the protein towards the endoplasmic reticulum, which was started by the signal peptide.  

Thus, the process of translation of the remaining of the protein occurs within the cytosol due to the tethering of the transmembrane domain. In the stop-transfer anchor sequence, the hydrophobic amino acids present are isoleucine and valine. After mutation, these amino acids get converted into arginine and lysine, thus, hydrophilic amino acids replace hydrophobic amino acids in the sequence.  

Due to this, the transmembrane domain cannot be targeted towards an integral part of the plasma membrane by the short transfer anchor sequence, and therefore, now the translocation of the protein will take place towards the endoplasmic reticulum as initiated by the signal peptide at the beginning.
