Answer: Point mutation is easily reversible, thus non-lethal
Explanation:
Point mutation is caused by exchange of a single nucleotide for another. These change is called
1) Transition (when a purine base substitute another purine base, or pyrimidine bases substitute each other)
2) Transversion (when a purine base substitute a pyrimidine base).
However, note that a point mutation can be easily reversed by another point mutation; so, the claim that a nucleotide difference in the Hsr12 gene caused the human disease is inaccurate
Here's a graph showing the stages.
Look closely at the second stage-- the death rate is low but the birth rate is high.

Answer:
Lead
Explanation:
The material that will warm up the fastest would be<u> lead.</u>
<em>The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit of the substance by one degree. The higher the specific heat capacity of a substance, the higher the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the substance and vice versa.</em>
The specific heat capacity (in J/g °C) of granite, iron, copper, and lead are as follows:
Granite - 0.790
Iron - 0.450
Copper - 0.385
Lead - 0.129
From the table, <u>lead has the lowest specific heat capacity, hence, it will be the fastest to get warmed when equal masses of all the substances are placed in the sunlight.</u>
Answer:
a. are often transmitted by fecal contaminated water and food.
Explanation:
<em>Eschericia coli</em> belongs to a group of bacteria generally referred to as fecal coliforms because they are of fecal origin.
<em>Hence, their common mode of transmission is through fecal to oral routes such as fecal contaminated food, water and any other substance that passes through the mouth.</em>
<em>E. coli </em>infections can be treated using suitable antibiotics.
The correct option is a.
