You have two flasks (labeled A and B) that each contain an equal population of normal animal cells. You place flask A in a machine called a shaking incubator, which shakes the flask at 37°C and keeps the cells moving so as to not allow them to adhere to
the bottom of the flask. Flask B is allowed to sit in an incubator (without shaking) at 37°C. If you let the cells in each flask grow for a week, which of the following results are you most likely to observe?
A) The cells in flask A will have grown significantly, but the cells in flask B will have not grown at all.
B) The cells in both flasks A and B will have grown significantly.
C) The cells in both flasks A and B will have not grown at all.
D) The cells in flask B will have grown significantly, but the cells in flask A will have not grown at all.

Why can one change in a nucleotide sequence of a gene cause a nonfunctional protein to be produced?
A. The change can cause a stop codon to occur early in translation and the full length protein is not translated. B. A substitution can result in one incorrect amino acid being present in the protein which can affect the shape of the protein and therefore its function C. An insertion or deletion can occur early in the gene and result in an incorrect translation of the protein. D. All of the above
