Answer:
A gene mutation can be described as errors in the nucleotide sequence of a gene due to errors in the DNA replication process or due to any mutagen. On the other hand, a chromosomal mutation can be described as a change in the structure of a DNA or changes in the number of chromosomes.
A gene mutation occurs in a single gene whereas a chromosomal mutation will affect many genes. Hence, gene mutations will be comparatively less lethal than chromosomal mutations.
Example of gene mutation: Sickle cell anemia
Example of chromosomal mutation: Down's Syndrome
The question provided is not complete as it lacks the group of choices, however the group of choices are given as follows:
A. A contraction fails to occur because an action potential is not generated in the muscle cell.
B. A contraction fails to occur because this toxin directly prevents ion release from intracellular stores.
C. A contraction fails to occur because neurotransmitter release by the motor neuron is blocked at the neuromuscular junction.
D. A contraction fails to occur because this toxin prevents cross bridge formation and thereby directly prevents contraction.
E. C and D are both true
Answer:
The correct answer is option A : A contraction fails to occur because an action potential is not generated in the muscle cell.
Explanation:
A muscle contraction takes place when action potential bring to muscles by nerves, which is traveled with the help of motor neuron and imitated the muscle contraction.
Acetylcholine or Ach is a chemical messenger to bring the nerve impulses between a nerve and a muscle. If the receptor is block with applying toxin muscle will not contract as ACh will not be able to propagate the nerve impulse to the muscle so there will be no action potential.
The correct answer is option A : A contraction fails to occur because an action potential is not generated in the muscle cell.
The rate and direction of reactions are greatly influenced by the Law of Mass action or molecular concentration because they relate to the same principle
