You have noticed that wheat, when watered at a certain time of day, grows much faster. Do you have any financial incentive to tell other farmers about this discovery? Explain your answer.

Although morally wrong, I see no reason to tell your neighbors of your discovery because if u take care of your plants properly and they don’t, you’ll get the most business

The right answer is A: proteins would be formed incorrectly.

During DNA replication, transcription errors are likely to occur during polymerization of the second DNA strand by DNA polymerase. These errors, called mutations, can have consequences on the phenotype of a living being, especially if they occur in the coding regions of a gene. The error rate is generally very low, of the order of one replication error out of ten to one hundred million replicated bases, thanks to the function of proofreading of DNA polymerases.

Missense and nonsense mutations are examples of point mutations that can cause genetic diseases such as thalassemia and sickle cell disease, by changing the physicochemical nature of an amino acid residue important for the function of the modified protein.
