<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Germline mutation

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Mutations are sudden, random changes that occur spontaneously in the genetic make up of an organism. <em><u>Mutation are caused by various factors which includes errors in meiosis, and other factors such as chemical mutagens.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Germline mutations are types of mutations that occurs in the germline cells, cells that give rise to gametes, sperm and ovum.</u></em>
  • These types of mutations may be passed from the parents to the offspring, when a mutated sperm cells or ovum undergoes fertilization to form an ovum.

The binding of Ach to its muscuranic receptors indirectly affects the permeability of _____ channels which can produce hyperpola
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The binding of ACh to the muscarinic receptor indirectly affects the permeability of K⁺channels. This can produce hyper polarization in some organs if channels are opened, and depolarization in others if channels are closed.

Explanation:

For example, in the heart it is the beta-gamma compound that fixes to the K+ channels of heart muscle and sources them to exposed. This leads to K+ dispersion out of the cell and the cell converts into hyper polarized consequential in a reduction in heart rate. In contrast, in smooth muscle of the stomach the alpha sub unit fixes to K+ channels producing them to close. This decreases the external diffusion of K+ and the cell converts depolarized ensuing in smooth muscle contraction.

External Fertilization: Amphibians and fishes used external fertilization.

Egg laying Animals;Birds,reptiles and some mammals platypus lays eggs.

Fertilization is a process in which a female egg (Ovum) and male egg (sperm) unite to form a zygote.A zygote is a fertilized egg which grows within an embryo.The process of fertilization is important in eukaryotes such as animals, humans,birds and plants. Fertilization divides a cell into many daughter cells by the process of mitosis and meiosis.It doubles the chromosome numbers.Fertilization are of two types internal and external.

Why are cells so small? In your answer, use the terms volume, distance, diffusion, surface area, plasma membrane.
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Cells are so little, so they can maximize their ratio of surface area to volume.

Explanation:

Smaller cells have a higher ratio which allows more molecules and ions to move across the cell membrane per unit of cytoplasmic volume. Cells are so small because they need to be able to get the nutrients in and the waste out quickly.
