A mutation is a rare, accidental or induced modification of genetic information (DNA or RNA sequence) in the genome.
The consequences of a mutation vary according to the part of the genome affected. A mutation is said to be hereditary if the mutated genetic sequence is passed on to the next generation.
In multicellular animals, germline mutations can be transmitted to offspring, whereas somatic mutations do.
Somatic mutations do not affect cells intended for reproduction, so they are never hereditary:
* Post-zygotic mutations are the mutations that appear in the egg after fertilization. They are rarer and are expressed as mosaic in the individual concerned (the mutation will be present only in the daughter cells originating from the mutated embryonic cell).
* Mutations can appear throughout life on the DNA of any cell; they are then transmitted to the line of the daughter cells. These can, in some cases, become tumor cells and then form cancer.
Answer: A Fixed Action Pattern
Explanation:
A fixed action pattern is an ethological term and off course a natural activity pattern that causes animals to act in a specific behavior pattern distinctive to their species. It is a pattern that is relatively unchangeable within the species and usually ends even when it is interrupted. You can say that, it is innate releasing mechanism or network where sign stimulus exists, once released from neural network; fixed action pattern leads to completion as well.
Answer:
d. more permeable to sodium ions.
Explanation:
The binding of Acetylcholine with the receptors at motor end plate facilitate membrane permeability to sodium ions therefore opening of voltage gated channels for sodium ions.
Sodium ions diffused into the synapse of post synaptic neuron at the neuromuscular junction.
If the stimulus is up to threshold levels; more chemical(neurotransmitter) gated sodium channels opens, and sodium ions move into the synapse to depolarize the membrane with reversal of charges to generate action potential.
The continuous binding of Acetycholine , leads to permanent opening of sodium ions,and over excitation from depolarization. Acetycholinesterase enzymes breakdown Acetycholine to choline and Acetyl Co -A. These are recycle back to Acetycholiine
b atoms with a covalent bond hope this helps i wish you luck i no its right!!!!!!!!!!
