How are active faults and inactive faults similar

ICE Princess25 [194]

Active faults are structure along which we expect displacement to occur. By definition, since a shallow earthquake is a process that produces displacement across a fault, all shallow earthquakes occur on active faults. Inactive faults are structures that we can identify, but which do no have earthquakes.

Researchers can manipulate the genes of a mouse so that a single gene in a single tissue either produces an inactive protein (a

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1) The genetic changes can lead to a reduction in the capacity of the mice to move glycogen at its branches points and lowers blood glucose levels between meals.

2) Genetic changed can lead to a decrease in the capacity to lower blood glucose due to the knock out of the hexokinase gene leading to elevated levels in the bloodstream.

bisphosphatase-1 activity

(d) An active FBPase-2 will now favor gluconeogenesis and this inhibits glycolysis. I.e. a decrease in PFK-1 activity while increasing FBPase-1 activity simultaneously.

Why does a frameshift mutation usually cause more effects during protien sythesis than a point mutation

Levart [38]

Frameshift mutation affects codons downstream the point of mutation. The previous order of 3 nucleotide- sequences (codons) is consequently changed. This, therefore, changes the protein coded by the mRNA transcribed by the mutated DNA region. Frameshifts are mostly due to insertion or deletion mutations.
