The sequence of bases in your genes controls how proteins are made, and the structure of proteins helps to determine how they function. Changing the sequence of gene can therefore have major effects on a protein's function. Describe THREE ways that changing one (or more) bases in a gene could affect the function of the protein it codes for.

After reading the paragraph below, answer the questions that follow. researchers have created a robot that has a very thin leg that is moved by cardiac (heart) cells contracting in unison. the robot, made of a polymer similar to that used in making contact lenses, is bathed in heart cells with supporting cells, which then attach to the robot and provide movement as they contract. all of the cardiac cells working together can cause the robot leg to move in a way that individual cells could not. this is an example of a. emergent properties of cells. b. energy flow through an ecosystem. c. adaptation. d. internal environment regulation.

The cluster of developing cells from conception until birth is called an

Step 1 review the imaginary strand of dna below. note the complementary base pairs. a g c a a t c c g t c t t g g t c g t t a g g c a g a a c c step 2 to begin replicating this strand of dna, draw the two sides of the strand separating. step 3 now, draw the free-floating bases linking up with the separate sides. remember to follow the rules of complementary base pairing. step 4 draw the two resulting dna strands.
