If an A (Adenine) were swapped for a T (Thymine) it will lead to A TRANSVERSION TYPE OF POINT MUTATION.

Replacement of an A with a T is a transversion type of point mutation because in transversion the purine is replaced with a pyrimidine. Since in this case only one nucleotide is replaced, it is a point mutation.

Answer:

Dopamine

Explanation:

Parkinson’s disease is a degenerative, progressive disorder that affects nerve cells in parts of the brain called the basal ganglia and the substantia nigra.

The neurotransmitter dopamine is produced by nerve cells in the substantia nigra and these nerve cells function in relaying information from the brain that plan and control body movement. In Parkinson's disease, the dopamine-producing nerve cells of the substantia nigra begin to die off . Symptoms such as tremor, impaired movement, stiffness, and balance problems occur when the loss of nerve cells is about 80%

iragen [17]

Answer: B

Explanation:

I'm not sure, but I'd say that the best answer choice would be B because most of the plants would grow, and none would die off. The smaller plants would grow, and would grow in, and most if not all of the larger would just continue to grow, if they aren't already full grown.

Hope this helped!

ohaa [14]
These changes occur due to increased heart rate (measured by taking pulse) without maintaining his normal blood pressure is suggestive of reduced stroke volume. Both drop in blood volume and a weakened heart could cause this, however, the chest pains suggest heart damage. Failure of compensating mechanisms to maintain blood pressure suggest a serious decline in cardiac output.
