There are different classes of mutation but the descriptions given here are specifically applied to cystic fibrosis, particularly referring to the CFTR (<span>Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) </span>gene. 

<u>Mutation Classes</u>
Class I    -  Gene contains a stop signal that prevents CFTR from being made.
Class II   - CFTR is made, but does not reach the cell membrane
Class III  - CFTR is made and in the right place, but does not function normally
Class IV  - Channel does not move substances efficiently or at all
Class V   - <span>CFTR is made in smaller than normal quantities

(Source: </span>https://www.biologycorner.com/worksheets/case_study_cystic_fibrosis.html)

Given these different classes, the easiest one to correct would most likely be Class V, since in this type of mutation, the only problem or abnormality is the production of insufficient amounts of the needed CFTR.

Suppose earth landmasses someday all move together. Describe the changes that will occur in earths oceans in earths land masses.
Klio2033 [76]
The oceans will get wider as the continents are brought together to each other as a result of subduction zones. Most continents and microcontinents will collide with Eurasia. Eurasia could then collide with North America, when Eurasia shifts to the east and North America to the west. Australia could join Southeast Asia. As a result, Pacific ocean will grow wider and merge with all the other oceans, whereas all the earth's landmasses are combined, as a result of subduction.

Each kernel of corn receives one allele from

each parent for the traits of color and texture.

Option B

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Corn kernels are actually the seeds of corn. Corn kernels are formed because of the fertilization of both the Pollen and the ovule of the corn plants. This pollens and the ovules are formed by means of meiosis which takes different alleles of the same gene from both the parents and both the chromosomes of each parents. This is why during meiosis the events of crossing over and independent assortment leads to the variation of characters into the offspring. This is why the kernel colours of the the same ear of the corn remains same. This is how the corn plant receives the the kernel colours from both the parents and their colours remain constant for one particular ear. Also the gene of texture is achieved from both the parents by means of meiosis just like the corn colour. So there also independently assorted.

Why is the nervous system the control system of the body?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The nervous system is made up of the brain, spinal cord and nerves. It is the body's communication system that controls much of what your body does. It allows you to do things like walk, speak, swallow, breathe and learn, and controls how your body reacts in an emergency.
