Ethyl methane sulfonate is a chemical mutagen that modifies bases in DNA. This agent causes C to be mutated to T. What is the outcome if this type of mutation occurs in the bases of codon 5 in the sequence of the following sense strand of DNA? GTCACCGGTCTATACATAAGC A) There would be a change in DNA sequence but no change in the protein sequence due to the redundancy of the genetic code.
B) There would be a mis-sense mutation, resulting in the substitution of an Asn for a His residue in the protein.
C) There would be a non-sense mutation, resulting in the synthesis of a truncated protein.
D) Both B and C are possible outcomes.

Recent research by marine biologists suggests that bottlenose dolphins have names for themselves. scientists played sounds they had identified as the names of particular dolphins, putting them through a synthesizer so that they did not sound like the voices of particular dolphins. the researchers found that dolphins would respond to the names of other dolphins that they were related to or associated with, but they ignored the names of strangers. this discovery suggests a much greater degree of self-awareness in aquatic mammals than was previously suspected. if this research holds up, what does it suggest about dolphins?
