An insertion or deletion of a nucleotide base that alters the reading frame is known as a frameshift mutation.

A point mutation only affects one amino acid and does not alter the frame.

The reading frame may or may not move as a result of the insertion or deletion of a nucleotide or combination of nucleotides. The mutation is referred to as a non-frameshift mutation if it does not result in a shift in the reading frame.

The addition or deletion of certain nucleotide base-pairs from the DNA molecule is referred to as an insertion or deletion.

The reading frame may or may not move as a result of the insertion or deletion of a nucleotide or combination of nucleotides. The mutation is referred to as a non-frameshift mutation if it does not result in a shift in the reading frame.

On the other hand, a mutation is known as a frameshift mutation if the reading frame does shift. Where it occurs will determine how it changes.

Which statement describes the reaction for cellular respiration?

mixer [17]

The equation is glucose + oxygen carbon dioxide + water and energy is produced in the form of ATP.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a metabolic process in which glucose combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water with energy stored as ATP.

Glucose + Oxygen gas → Carbon dioxide + Water + energy in ATP

ATP is Adenosine TriPhosphate.

In the body, during cellular respiration, oxygen gas is inhaled and carried to sites in the body where food in form of glucose obtained from plant is broken down.

When food is broken down aerobically i.e in the presence of oxygen gas, carbon dioxide and water is produced and energy is stored in form of ATP.

white blood cells; formed elements involved in body protection that take part in inflammatory and immune responses are:

svetoff [14.1K]

Neutrophils They kill and then digest the bacteria and the fungi. They are the most numerous type of the white blood cell and your first line of the defense when the infection strikes.

A high level of neutrophils in the blood is called neutrophilia. This is a sign that your body is infected. Neutrophilia can indicate many underlying conditions and factors, including: Infection, possibly bacteria. They capture and destroy invading microbes through phagocytosis and intracellular degradation, release of granules, and formation of neutrophil extracellular traps upon detection of pathogens. Neutrophils are also involved as inflammatory mediators. What is the most common cause of high neutrophils? infection. This is the most common cause of high neutrophil counts. Most bacterial infections cause elevated neutrophil counts, but not all. Viral infections generally do not cause neutrophilia, but it can occur early in the infection.
