Essential nutrients
These are the organic compounds present in the food that provide nourishment essential for the development and growth of our body. Nutrients not only provide us with the required energy to carry out various biological processes but are also the building blocks for repair and growth in our bodies.
Vitamins
The vitamins are organic molecules required in low concentration for the proper functioning of the body. They cannot be generated in the organism and are taken into the body through the diet. The lack of proper vitamins results in diverse deficiency disorders. They are thus called essential nutrients. The important vitamins are vitamin A, vitamin B complex, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin K, and vitamin E.

Transcribed Image Text:**DNA Interactive Simulation**
**DNA Sequence Editing Tool:**
- **Enter DNA Sequence Below**
- **Original Sequence:**
```
ATGCCAGCGGCGGAGAGCTTGCTAATTGGCTTATAG
```
- **Edited Sequence:**
```

**Simulation Interface:**
This interactive simulation provides a visual representation of the transcription and translation processes of DNA to proteins. The interface consists of a sequence of nucleotides symbolized by colored shapes representing the bases: adenine (A), uracil (U), guanine (G), and cytosine (C).
**Translation and Protein Synthesis:**
- The horizontal line made of color-coded nucleotides represents the mRNA strand.
- Above this, the amino acids are depicted with their respective three-letter codes:
- Met (Methionine)
- Pro (Proline)
- Gly (Glycine)
- Leu (Leucine)
- Trp (Tryptophan)
- Ala (Alanine)
- Ile (Isoleucine)
- Asn (Asparagine)
- Glu (Glutamic Acid)
- Arg (Arginine)
Each group of three nucleotides (codons) on the mRNA strand corresponds to a specific amino acid or a stop signal in the protein synthesis sequence.
**Interactive Features:**
- **Edit DNA:** Modify the DNA sequence.
- **Show DNA:** Display the original DNA sequence.
- **Transcribe:** Convert DNA to mRNA.
- **Translate:** Translate mRNA to amino acid chains.
- **Show Protein:** Visualize the resulting protein.
- **Control Buttons:**
- **Continue one step**
- **Start/continue model**
- **Stop**
- **Reset**
Explore the effects of mutations by clicking on nucleotides and observing changes in amino acid sequences. This tool is designed to facilitate understanding of genetic coding and protein expression.
Expert Solution
Step 1
Mutation in a gene sequence causes encoding of a mutated protein. This mutated protein will have different folding patterns and will not function as the original protein.
