<h3>Answer:</h3><h2>A. Missense.</h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

Since the resulting nucleotide is offset from its initial sequence by only one parallel nucleotide we can definitely say it is Missense mutation. This sort of a mutation is known as a nonsynonymous mutation, there is only one direct substitution that occurs in the codon producing a different amino acid.

Mendel determined that for a given character(i.e. pea seed shape) an individual has two factors that these can exist in two form

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.

Explanation:

Mendel crossed different varieties of pea plants and he observed how phenotypic traits passed to the progeny. From these experiments, Mendel formulated the 'First Law of Segregation', where he observed that traits may exist in pairs that segregate (separate) at meiosis. During meiosis, i.e., gamete formation, these two factors separate from each other, thereby each gamete has the same probability of receiving either factor. Nowadays, we know that these two factors represent two different gene variants or 'alleles' for a given gene <em>locus</em>. Alleles can be classified into dominant or recessive as in the example above described, where the R factor (round) dominates on the r factor (wrinkled) to determine the seed shape.
