The  altered  protein  affected  the  function   of  the  cell  membrane. The   cell  membrane which  contain  a  bilayer control  the  movement  of  substance   in  and  out  of  the  cell and organelles.  Due   to  this  it  is  selective  permeable  to ion  and  organic  molecules.

The right answer is chloride transport in cell membrane.

Cystic fibrosis is genetically translated by a mutation in the CFTR gene.

This gene encodes a transmembrane protein which is a chloride channel regulated by cAMP (cyclic Adenosine MonoPhosphate). This low-conductance channel is a regulator of other channels, particularly sodium channels such as the ENaC channel (Epithelial Na Channel) or the Outwardly Rectifying Chloride Channel (ORCC).

Answer:

That is administered and controlled

Step-by-step explanation:

A variable is the condition or a product that may vary without the influence of any investigator. Such variables can be found abundantly in our daily lives, ranging from air to sunlight. Controlling such variables ensures the limitation of their influence on the outcome of an experiment. In connection to this experiment, the variables that are controlled are the mineral content in the water, the  amount of bacteria food, the amount of light and the the constant temperature of 20 degrees C.

If not administered or these variables controlled, the experiment would not clearly explain the impact of caffeine on the heart beat of the water fleas as other variables may have influenced it. Thus variables are controlled to study the singular impact of any agent or effect.

Name and describe the three methods of classification used to construct a phylogenetic tree.
julia-pushkina [17]
In evolutionary biology, phylogenetic trees are used to exhibit and illustrate the evolutionary relationships of two or more organisms, and identify the origins of life altogether. To achieve this, there are three methods of classification which are phonetics, cladistics, and taxonomic groups.
