What happens when a mutation occurs during the formation of gametes in a parent sex cell?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

if it's a silent mutation, nothing significant will happen, but if it's a frame shift mutation, it can make the baby deform.

Answer 2

Answer: most mutations will have no effect, although in rare cases an abnormal foetus may develop and even more rarely the embryo may be non-viable.

Explanation: A mutation at this stage is probably due to a random result of an external effect (cosmic ray for example) and probably a change in one nucleotide (a single nucleotide polymorphism). It is unlikely that the mutation will be an insertion, deletion or inversion.

Whatever the mutation, it is unlikely to occur in the relatively small proportion of coding DNA. If it does occur in coding DNA it is still unlikely to be at a critical codon. If it does occur at a critical codon, it may still code the the same amino acid, particularly if it is a third nucleotide.

There is a low probability that the mutation will prevent the formation of a fully functional protein, by altering a critical amino acid or altering the frame by changing a stop codon, or creating a stop codon, or altering a promoter region. Even in this case, any error can be avoided if the other allele is intact.

It is possible, however, that a mutation could result in a development abnormality (cystic fibrosis is an example),  or a non-viable embryo.

Group of answer choices A. If the power goes out, they will have to light candles. B. The sudden, bright flash of light woke him up. C. After the injury, she was only able to lift light objects D. Her mother gave her a light kiss before she left for school.

Answers

Answer:

C. After the injury, she was only able to lift light objects.

Explanation:

"Light material floated up and became the early mantle and crust while iron and nickel pulled to the center of Earth" In this sentence, the word light is an adjective that means of little weight. Sentence C uses light in the same way because it is referring to objects that are easy to move since they are not heavy.

In option A, the word light is a verb that means to burn a candle to let them see.

In option B, the word light is a noun that is the brightness that allows us to see.

In option D, light is an adjective that modifies the noun kiss. It describes a delicate, small kiss.

precipitation is likely to occur? Why?
PLZ EXPLAIN WHY

Answers

Answer:

Rain: Rain made of liquid water droplets falls when temperatures in the air and at the surface are above freezing (32°F, 0°C).

Explanation:

As average temperatures at the Earth's surface rise, more evaporation occurs, which, in turn, increases overall precipitation. ... In addition, higher temperatures lead to more evaporation, so increased precipitation will not necessarily increase the amount of water available for drinking, irrigation, and industry.

Freezing rain is simply rain that falls through a shallow layer of cold temperatures at or below 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees F) near the surface. When this rain becomes supercooled, it can freeze on contact with roads, bridges, trees, power lines, and vehicles.

Explanation:

Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.

I beleive it's B because it would have to be a strong gravitational pull to keep everything balanced correctly.

Which mutation would NOT cause a change in an organism's phenotype?

Answers

Answer:

B)TAT becomes TAC

Explanation:

since thymine(T) pairs with adenine(A), thymine(T) is replaced with uracil(U) in the RNA and guanine(G) pairs with cytosine(C)

we can find the complementary codons for each strand

the codon for TAT is AUA which codes for methionine

the codon for TAC is AUG which also codes for methionine

that means the phenotype (methionine)remains unchanged for different genotypes(TAT and TAC)

Due to the Earth's shape and orientation, areas near the Equator receive the greatest amount of energy from the Sun. Ocean currents

Answers

Complete question:

Due to the Earth's shape and orientation, areas near the Equator receive the greatest amount of energy from the Sun. Ocean currents

A. move only away from the equator as a result.

B. help to distribute this energy by warming other regions of the globe.

C. move only toward the equator as a result.

D. keep this energy concentrated in one region of the globe

Answer:

B. help to distribute this energy by warming other regions of the globe.

Explanation:

Heat it gained in equatorial latitudes and lost in higher latitudes. Winds and marine currents redistribute the heat around the earth. The ocean clime is influenced by winds, and show a lower thermic amplitude than continental climes due to a bigger redistribution of heat by the currents.  

There exist horizontal water movements that are produced by the action of different winds on the ocean surface. Superficial winds, influenced by the Coriolis effects, are responsible for most of the marine currents.

Trade winds push the water surface forward western direction in the equator, while western winds produce currents that move water to the east at higher latitudes. By the Coriolis effect, water masses are deviated to the west or the east, depending on the hemisphere, and result in large clockwise circular turns in the Northern Hemisphere, and in the opposite direction in the Southern Hemisphere.

Warmer currents travel from the tropics, along the continental margins, carrying warm water to higher latitudes, and as they do so, these water masses get cooler, producing cold currents.

There also exist vertical water movements, such as the ascendant “upwelling” currents that transport cold water with nutrients from the bottom to the surface. Through trade winds at higher latitudes, surface water is diverted out to sea, making a place for the ascent of cold water from the deep. At tropical latitudes, descendent “downwelling” currents occur. Dense cold water from the poles descends as they get in touch with warmer water from lower latitudes.

describe how lactose undergoes enzymatic hydrolysis by lactase.

Answers

Lactose is a dissacharide composed of two monosacharides(glucose and galactose). Glucose and galactose are isomers, which means they have the same molecular formula(C6H12O6) but different structural formulas.

During hydrolysis the bond between the two monosacharides is broken and a water molecule is added.

lactose(C12H22O11)+H2O-->glucose(C6H12O6)+galactose(C6H12O6)

the enzyme that catalyzes this reaction is called lactase and is secreted by the small intestine

Which of the following would be the correct mRNA sequence for the DNA of the light colored moths...​

Answers

Answer:

There are no options but the question can be answered based on general understanding. The mRNA sequence is:

CGU AGG CUU AGC

Explanation:

Transcription is the process by which DNA template is used to synthesize a mRNA sequence. The transcription process, which occurs in the NUCLEUS, follows the complementary base pairing rule, which states that an Adenine will always pair with Thymine (Uracil in RNA), while the Guanine will always pair with Cytosine i.e. A-U, G-C.

According to the image in this question, it shows the DNA sequences of a light and dark colored moth (mutant). The DNA sequence of the light colored moth is as follows: GCA TCC GAA TCG.

Using the priniples of complementary base pairing, the mRNA sequence of this DNA template will be: CGU AGG CUU AGC

New Years resolutions are an ancient tradition that are found in many cultures and are still popular today. The new year was not always celebrated in January and it is still celebrated at different times in other cultures. The Chinese celebrate the Lunar New Year, which is customarily in January or February. The Jewish celebration of the new year, or Rosh Hashanah, usually takes place in autumn. No matter when the new year is commemorated, most cultures see it as a time for new beginnings and a time when promises and goals for the next year are set. Ancient Babylonians were the first to leave a written record of New Years resolutions. They celebrated the new year when crops were planted at the beginning of spring. Although ancient Babylonians were making promises to their gods, not to go to the gym or eat more salads like some people do today, these can be considered early New Years resolutions. Ancient Romans also made New Years resolutions. Emperor Julius Caesar moved the new year to January 1st to align with his new calendar. To celebrate the new year, Romans offered gifts to their gods and promised good behavior for the rest of the year. During the middle ages, Europeans also made resolutions that were called peacock vows. These were vows made primarily by medieval knights, who would gather around a peacock or other type of bird and pledge to behave appropriately. This usually took place around Christmas. So while it was not always at the very start of a new year, it was a type of resolution for the coming months. Later, Christian communities adopted the practice of marking the new year with a celebration and promises to improve their behavior. They also held a service on New Years Eve to prevent people from going to parties outside the church. This tradition is still upheld in many churches today. By the seventeenth century, people were writing down resolutions near the end of the year, and in 1813, the phrase New Years resolution first appeared in a Boston newspaper. Since then, the concept of making a resolution on or near the new year has grown in popularity and the phrase New Years resolution has become almost universally understood. Today, many people make resolutions. Modern resolutions are often more about personal enhancement or goals than about celebrating new crops. The feelings of inspiration and hope that are present at the start of a new year are common and people around the world enjoy the opportunity to set goals to improve themselves. 2 AgNO3(aq)+(NH4)2CO3(aq)->Ag2CO3(s) +2NH4NO3(aq) guess a number from 1 -10 ill mark u brainliest if u get it right do Cartilaginous fish have 4 limbs What happen when potassium react with cold water? please summarize the story there will be soft rains by : ray Bradbury please help me please will give brainliest but with your own words Explain the purpose of statements and reasons in a formal proof. help plz!!!
