Which of the following will cause an increase in the mass of an object?

Biology
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
5 0
I would say the answer would be the increase in the amount of matter present in the object. On earth there is a fairly good correlation between mass and weight. For example, a box containing diamond drill core will weigh more when the granitic rock is fresh and unaltered than when it is altered to lighter minerals like clay minerals (argillic minerals) as they are generally lighter than the parent feldspars like plagioclase, so the fresh granitic rock has more matter in it.

____________ is the process by which inhibitory transmitters cause the inside of the neuron to become more negative.
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Hyperpolarization

Explanation:

At the synapse, neurotransmitters bind to neurotransmitter receptors in the postsynaptic neuron’s plasma membrane. This results in the opening of the ions channels and the flow of specific ions to change the voltage across the membrane. An inhibitory neurotransmitter inhibits the firing of the action potential by making the inside of the membrane more negative. It is called hyperpolarization (inhibition).

It may occur when the neurotransmitter opens the Cl– or K+ channels to allow the movement of chloride ions into the cell while permitting the outward movement of potassium ions to make the inside of the cell more negative.

explain the concept of mutation and how mutations can translate to a loss or gain of function in an organism
Vesnalui [34]

A mutation is a change in a DNA sequence. Mutations can result from DNA copying mistakes made during cell division, exposure to ionizing radiation, exposure to chemicals called mutagens, or infection by viruses. Germ line mutations occur in the eggs and sperm and can be passed on to offspring, while somatic mutations occur in body cells and are not passed on.

Recessive mutations inactivate the affected gene and lead to a loss of function. For instance, recessive mutations may remove part of or all the gene from the chromosome, disrupt expression of the gene, or alter the structure of the encoded protein, thereby altering its function.
