Explanation:

A frameshift mutation  is an insertion or deletion in a sequence of DNA which disrupts the way the code is read. It occurs when the codons undergo a disruption through the deletion or insertion of one or multiple nucleotides (given that the number removed or added are not multiples of 3) - this alters the open reading frame; the amino acids produced through translation simply occur in a different sequence.

Further Explanation:

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes. There are two types:

  • somatic: these only occur within certain cells, and arise from environmental factors such as UV light
  • hereditary: occur within germ cells of the parent and later the fertilized egg which forms a zygote; these are present within all cells of the new organism.

Answer

The correct answer would be auricle and auditory canal.

The auricle or pinna is the externally visible part of the ear. it is mainly composed of cartilages and integuments. It is connected to the surrounding parts with the help of muscle and ligaments.

It helps in focusing the most of the sound vibrations towards inside the ear.

It opens into the auditory canal which serves as the pathway for sound waves to the inner ear (tympanic membrane).

How dose the brain processes information from<br> stimuli? write 5 to 7
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

You can use this info....if it helps.

Explanation:

Information processing starts with input from the sensory organs, which transform physical stimuli such as touch, heat, sound waves, or photons of light into electrochemical signals. The sensory information is repeatedly transformed by the algorithms of the brain in both bottom-up and top-down processing.

In Stabilization Selection there is a decrease in the amount of variation. In the case of Stabilization Selection, selective pressures must select against two extremes of a particular trait. Two opposing selection pressures will combine to maintain a median height. Rather than resulting in extremely tall plants or extremely short plants, the majority of the plants in this population will be of medium height.</span>
