Portions of the DNA sequences of normal and mutant b-globin genes are shown. The most plausible explanation for why the indicated mutation (changing an A to a G) results in the disease b-thalassemia is that the mutation

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes
  1. changes the amino acid specified by the codon of which the altered base is part

  2. generates a recognition site for a restriction enzyme, so the gene is cut in two

  3. creates a new splice site, so that a portion of the intron is not removed

  4. results in an increase in the transcription of the b-globin gene

Pathogen evades plant by penetration of surface layers directly using mechanical pressure or enzymatic attack, some pass through natural openings, such as stomata or lenticels, and others only enter through wounded tissue. Once inside the plant, one of three main attack strategies is deployed specific feature of interaction given;
A) Necrotrophy
B) Biotrophy
C) Hemibiotrophy
i) where the plant cells remain alive throughout infection
ii) where the plant cells are killed in advance of infection 
iii) extensive plant tissue damage at initial stages
iv) where the pathogen initially keeps cells alive but at later stages of the infection, kills them
