Answer:
B) a nonsense mutation; this is because a nonsense mutation results in the change of a regular amino acid codon into a stop codon, which ceases translation. This fits with the problem's description of the protein that causes the symptoms as too short, as translation is the process by which proteins/polypeptides are created. A missense mutation would not be the answer because it still codes for an amino acid, which would not shorten the protein. A duplication of the gene would probably just lengthen the protein or not affect its length at all.
I'm not sure what you mean by "compartments", but the cardiovascular system consists of the heart, blood vessels, and approximately 5 liters of blood.
Answer: a. Increasing the surface area for diffusion
Explanation:
When the air is inhaled through the nostrils, the air containing the oxygen the air diffuses inside the alveoli. The alveoli are the tiny sacs where air enters and exchange of gases takes place. From the alveoli the oxygen enters into the blood stream. The oxygen is utilized by the cells for respiration. The increase in network and number of the alveoli will increase the surface area for the diffusion of oxygen and hence, will speed up the respiration process.
Answer:
The correct answer is B) Transcription, 5' cap addition, addition of poly-A tail, exon splicing, passage through nuclear membrane.
Explanation:
The transcription process in eukaryotes takes place in the nucleus of the cell and after transcription post-transcriptional modification also takes place in the nucleus which is necessary to guide the mRNA out of the nucleus.
First, the process of transcription takes place in which DNA is transcribed to mRNA by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. After transcription post-transcriptional modifications takes place in the given order.
1. Capping: In capping process 7-methylguanosine is added by capping enzyme at 5' end of mRNA.
2. Polyadenylation: In polyadenylation, many poly-A residues are added at the 3' end of the mRNA called the poly-A tail.
3. Intron splicing: Introns are the non-coding sequence present in mRNA which are spliced out of mRNA and all exons are joined together.
After these post-transcriptional process, the mature mRNA is transported out of the nucleus through the nuclear membrane.
