The substitution, addition, or removal of a single nucleotide in DNA is called a(n) ____________ mutation.A)interstitial
B)normal
C)point
D)reference

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. The substitution, addition, or removal of a single nucleotide in DNA is called a point mutation. It is a type of mutation that affects only one or very few nucleotides in a gene sequence.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer : The correct answer for the blank is -  C) point mutation.

Mutation can be described as the permanent change in the sequence of genetic material (that is DNA) of living organisms.

Point mutation corresponds to change in one nucleotide sequence of DNA.

There can be primarily three types of point mutation that is deletion (one nucleotide is deleted from the sequence), addition (a nucleotide is added), and substitution (a nucleotide is substituted by another nucleotide).

Thus, option C) is the right answer.

Which factor has the least effect on the strength of an electromagnet? A. The length of the connecting wires
B. The number of coils of wire.
C. The material of the core.
D. The strength of the battery

Answers

The length of the connecting wire has the least effect on the strength of an electromagnet.

What factors influence the strength of an electromagnet?

  • An electromagnet is a type of magnet where an electric current creates the magnetic field. The wire that makes up an electromagnet is typically twisted into a coil.
  • A magnetic field is produced by a current flowing through the wire and is concentrated in the hole, designating the centre of the coil.
  • The type of core material, the strength of the current flowing through the core, the number of wire turns on the core, and the size and form of the core are all factors that determine an electromagnet's strength.
  • Stronger magnetic fields can be created by using alloys like alnico, which is an alloy of aluminium, nickel, and cobalt.

The strength of the electromagnet's magnetic field increases when:

(a) the current increases

(b) the number of turns increases

(c) the wire is wound so that the length of the electromagnet is reduced

(d) Soft iron core inserted into magnetic coil

Bleaching is caused by the addition of bleach containing fertilizers that enter marine systems through runoff. True False

Answers

The given statement is False

Bleach such as chlorine when mixed in fertilizers acts as a killing agent for plants .The bleach runoff is not affected by the fertilizers containing bleach as they do not kill the Aquatic flora. Marine bleaching is caused due to high temperature of water not because of the fertilizers. In marine bleaching the coral will expel algae when the temperature of water is high. These results in discoloration of corals making them white and they can survive in this condition. This proves that the bleaching inside the marine system is because of high temperature not because of runoff.

false because bleach is not used in fertlizers
