Why does a frameshift mutation usually cause more defects during protein synthesis than a point mutation? apex?

I believe this is because the frameshift mutations can affect many amino acids. 
Frame shift mutation is produced by either insertion of deletion of one or more new bases. Since the reading frame begins at the start site, any mRNA produced from mutated DNA sequence will be read out of frame after the point of the insertion or deletion, thus producing a nonsense protein.

vredina [299]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

In 10th grade , Natalie fits the societal ideal of a slender body type . She is most likely a(n) :

A) late-maturer.

B) average-maturer.

C) prepubescent.          

D) early-maturer.

Answer:

D) early-maturer.

Explanation:

If Natalie is in 10th grade, it means she is around 15-16 years old. This is an age when the body is being modeled after the molds of an adult body. However, children's characteristics should still be present at this age.

This is not what is happening to Natalie, since at this age she has a body that fits society's standards for a slim body. These standards of beauty in society are aimed at adult bodies, Natalie is not an adult, which shows that she is a person with early maturity.

Because of the presence of both activation and inactivation gates, voltage-gated Na channels can A. be activated B. all of these
gladu [14]

Because of the presence of both activation and inactivation gates, voltage-gated Na channels can be all of these.

  • Sodium voltage-gated channels can be either closed, open, or inactive.
  • Voltage-gated sodium channels are closed when at rest. Both an activation gate and an inactivation gate are present in voltage-gated sodium channels.
  • Although the inactivation gate is open, the activation gate is closed. This conformation is closed but capable of opening. Some of the activation gates open as a result of membrane depolarization brought on by a stimulus.
  • Both the activation and inactivation gates will be opened at this point. As sodium ions enter the cells, nearby activation gates will open.
  • A greater amount of sodium will enter the cells as a result, initiating an action potential.
  • Both gates open when certain depolarization thresholds are reached. Action potential increases to its maximum as sodium rushes into the cell.
  • The inactivation gate will gradually close and the permeability of the membrane to sodium ions will decrease. The channel is now in a state known as "closed but not capable of opening."
  • Up until the membrane potential reaches its resting state, this occurs. The channels once more assume the "closed but capable of opening" conformation when resting values are attained.

How do two monosaccharides combine to form a disaccharide?
disa [49]

Answer:

A monosaccharide is made of a 6-carbon cyclic ring. 5 out of the 6 form part of the ring while the other carbon acts as a side group of the 5’ carbon in the ring. When forming a disaccharide with the next monosaccharide, the OH of the 1’ C of one monomer undergoes a condensation reaction with the OH of the 5’ C of the next monomer. This results in the formation of a glycosidic bond and the loss of a water molecule.
