Imagine discovering a loss-of-function mutation in a eukaryotic gene. you determine the gene's nucleotide sequence from the start site for transcription to the termination point of transcription and find no differences from the wild-type sequence. explain where you think the mutation might be and how the mutation might be acting.

Which statements best describe the differences or similarities between a comparative investigation and an experimental investigation? check all that apply. experimental investigations are best for showing cause-and-effect relationships, while comparative investigations do not necessarily show this type of relationship. comparative investigations are often impractical and unrealistic, while experimental investigations are the most practical and realistic kinds of investigations. comparative investigations allow for the use of a wide range of variables but do not have a control group, while experimental investigations involve variables that can be controlled. both experimental investigations and comparative investigations are designed to answer scientific questions. both experimental investigations and comparative investigations focus on making observations rather than collecting new data.
