Which of the following mutations would likely be most dangerous to a cell? a. deletion of one nucleotideb. deletion of three nucleotidesc. substitution of one nucleotide for another

A

Explanation:

The reason the deletion of a nucleotide can be a lethal mutation is that it causes a frameshift mutation. This is due to teh fact that the codon sequence on the DNA is shifted by a single nucleotide. Therefore, the codons will read differently downstream from the place the deletion happened. The amino acids coded for by these codons will change too. The translated proteins will be defective and the organisms will be adversely affected, phenotypically.

organisms that lack symmetry are called asymmetrical and belong to phylum porifera/sponges.

organisms with specialized stinging cells belong to phylum cnidaria. stinging cells are called cnidoblast cells.

cnidarians show two morphological forms : polyp (sessile) and medusa (mobile)

filter feeding is observed in porifera members.  

alternation of generation is observed in coelenterata or cnidaria. there is alternation of asexual polyp form and sexual medusoid form. it is also referred as metagenesis.

c.more precipitation,but only when emission levels.
