Normal proteins allow the substances Na + and Cl- to move correctly through the cells of the skin, the pancreas and the lungs.
In contrast, the mutated proteins prevent them from moving through the cell, this causes mucus to accumulate in the skin, in the lungs and the pancreas, a medical condition called cystic fibrosis.

Answer:
a) Acetylcholine is degraded by acetylcholinesterase.
Explanation:
After it binds for its receptor on the plasma membrane of the postsynaptic cell, acetylcholine must be removed in order to prevent repeated stimulation. Acetylcholinesterase is enzyme for the inactivation of acetylcholine, present at all cholinergic synapses. This enzyme hydrolyses acetylcholine and breaks it to the acetate and choline. Choline can be reused for the synthesis of the new acetylcholine molecule so it is taken back into the presynaptic cell.
The α-amino group of many amino acids is transferred to α-ketoglutarate to form glutamate, which is then oxidatively deaminated to yield ammonium ion (NH4+).
