Answer:

Ligand gated.

Explanation:

Channels are important as they help in the transferring of one molecule from one place to another inside the cells. These channels also provide the way of cell communication.

The ligand gated channels generally open in response to the binding of ligand or some molecules with the channel. Sodium gated channels open in response to the binding of sodium with the channels.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

Explain how silent mutations affect the structure and function of the protein

Burka [1]

Answer:

Silent mutations do not affect protein function

Explanation:

A mutation is defined as any alteration in the genetic material of a cell of a living organism. Moreover, a silent mutation refers to any mutation that does not alter the phenotype of the cell/organism (they are evolutionary neutral mutations). Silent mutations are base substitutions that do not alter the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein, and therefore these mutations do not alter protein function.
