Please help me with Question 11 and 12 Thank you ahead oftime.
As we will learn in future chapters, mutations arise from changes in the genetic code that translates into the proper amino acid order to develop the structure of proteins. When the genetic code is changed, the amino acid coded by the DNA sequence is sometimes changed as well. Mutations are generally less severe if the original amino acid is swapped with another amino acid with similar chemical characteristics, and more severe if swapped for one with different chemical characteristics. 11. How do you think changes in amino acids would affect the shape of a protein? And why? 12. For each of the amino acids below, identify an amino acid that if swapped for the listed amino acid would cause a serious effect (S) on the protein structure and an amino acid that would cause a minimal effect (M) on the protein structure. a. Arginine S. M. e. Glutamine b. Aspartic Acid S. M. S. M. f. Alanine c. Lysine S. M. S. M. g. Phenylalanine d. Asparagine S. M. S. M.
