Answer the following question given this paragraph: Errors during DNA replication are not the only reason why mutations arise in DNA. Mutations, variations in the nucleotide sequence of a genome, can also occur because of damage to DNA. Such mutations may be of two types: induced or spontaneous. Induced mutations are those that result from an exposure to chemicals, UV rays, x-rays, or some other environmental agent. Spontaneous mutations occur without any exposure to any environmental agent; they are a result of natural reactions taking place within the body. Mutations may have a wide range of effects. Some mutations are not expressed; these are known as silent mutations. Point mutations are those mutations that affect a single base pair. The most common nucleotide mutations are substitutions, in which one base is replaced by another. These can be of two types, either transitions or transversions. Transition substitution refers to a purine or pyrimidine being replaced by a base of the same kind; for example, a purine such as adenine may be replaced by the purine guanine. Transversion substitution refers to a purine being replaced by a pyrimidine, or vice versa; for example, cytosine, a pyrimidine, is replaced by adenine, a purine. Mutations can also be the result of the addition of a base, known as an insertion, or the removal of a base, also known as deletion. Sometimes a piece of DNA from one chromosome may get translocated to another chromosome or to another region of the same chromosome; this is also known as translocation. These mutation types are shown in Figure 14.21. Q: What are the two methods in which mutations arise in dna? Choices: - produced or spontaneous - accelerated or spontaneous - accelerated or random - induced or spontaneous A:
(Answer)
induced or spontaneous

Answer the following question given this paragraph: years or more. During this time, a girl's height can increase 3 inches a year. The next step in puberty is menarche, the start of menstruation. In boys, the growth of the testes is typically the first physical sign of the beginning of puberty, which is followed by growth and pigmentation of the scrotum and growth of the penis. The next step is the growth of hair, including armpit, pubic, chest, and facial hair. Testosterone stimulates the growth of the larynx and thickening and lengthening of the vocal folds, which causes the voice to drop in pitch. The first fertile ejaculations typically appear at approximately 15 years of age, but this age can vary widely across individual boys. Unlike the early growth spurt observed in females, the male growth spurt occurs toward the end of puberty, at approximately age 11 to 13, and a boy's height can increase as much as 4 inches a year. In some males, pubertal development can continue through the early 20s. Q: In boys, what hormone stimulates the growth of the larynx and thickening and lengthening of the vocal folds, which causes the voice to drop in pitch during puberty? Choices: - Sexual - Endocrine - Petuitary - testosterone A:
(A).
testosterone
Ques:Answer the following question given this paragraph: All living things are made of matter . In fact, matter is the "stuff" of which all organisms are made. Anything that occupies space and has mass is known as matter. Matter, in turn, consists of chemical substances. It is the carbons, hydrogens, oxygens and other elements that combine to form molecules, compounds, organelles, cells and eventually tissues, organs and organisms. In addition to being made of matter, all living organisms also need energy to survive. Q: Anything that occupies space and has mass is known as what? Choices: - opaque - solid - dense - matter A:

Ans:matter
Answer the following question given this paragraph: Most fungi grow on moist soil or rotting vegetation such as dead logs. Some fungi live in water. Others live in or on other organisms. Fungi get their nutrition by absorbing organic compounds from other organisms. The other organisms may be dead or alive, depending on the fungus. Q: What do fungi absorb to get their nutrition? Choices: - water - air - soil - organic compounds from other organisms A:
organic compounds from other organisms
