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.
Answer:
deuterostomes
Explanation:
During the formation of the gastrula, a group of cells migrates towards the inside. The resultant sac forms the embryonic gut. The embryonic gut has an opening that opens to the outside and is called the blastopore. The blastopore may give rise to mouth or anus. In some organisms, blastopore develops into the anus. These organisms are called deuterostomes. The other organisms in which blastopore develops into the mouth are called protosomes. Echinoderms, hemichordates, and chordates are deuterostomes.
Answer: Ligand gated channel
Explanation:
Ligand gated channel is an essential membrane protein that has pores and allows the passage of specific ions across the plasma membrane when it is activated by a specific chemical . Examples of such ions that pass through Ligand gated channels are Sodium ions, Potassium ions, Calcium ions. Ligand gated channels are found in extensions of the nerve cells.
