Question

Question 2 1 pts According to the figure, which of the following statements regarding base substitution mutation rates is FALSE? O RNA viruses tend to have higher base substitution mutation rates than DNA viruses. Among cellular organisms, base substitution mutation rates increase with increasing genome size. O The data shown indicate that mammals have higher base substitution mutation rates than do invertebrate animals In viruses, base substitution mutation rates increase with increasing genome size

Explanation / Answer

The data shown indicate that mammals have higher base substitution mutation rates than do invertebrate animals – This is False

It is because as we analyse the graph we find that the mammal is on a lower position as compared to the invertebrates. The graph is designed to identify the number of base substitutions where invertebrates are shown to have maximum number of substitutions.
