pituitary gland-control growth, blood pressure, thyroid glands and metabolism etc.

pancreas-secretes insulin and glucagon, control of blood sugar levels

ovaries, testes-reproductive role (release female and male hormones)

Which type of mutation affects the largest number of genes
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Chromosomal Mutation

Explanation:

The development and function of an organism is in large part controlled by genes. Mutations can lead to changes in the structure of an encoded protein or to a decrease or complete loss in its expression. Because a change in the DNA sequence affects all copies of the encoded protein, mutations can be particularly damaging to a cell or organism. In contrast, any alterations in the sequences of RNA or protein molecules that occur during their synthesis are less serious because many copies of each RNA and protein are synthesized.

Geneticists often distinguish between the genotype and phenotype of an organism. Strictly speaking, the entire set of genes carried by an individual is its genotype, whereas the function and physical appearance of an individual is referred to as its phenotype. However, the two terms commonly are used in a more restricted sense: genotype usually denotes whether an individual carries mutations in a single gene (or a small number of genes), and phenotype denotes the physical and functional consequences of that genotype.

What is the error in this experiment please ??
True [87]
An error is that the scientist did not control their variables. They had one group of people playing the game at 6, and another group playing at 12. This means that other things might have affected the scores other than what was being tested, which was caffeine.
