Answer: The correct answer is-
an agent that causes a mutation in DNA.
Mutagen is an agent or a substance that causes permanent change in the genetic material of living organisms ( DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid). This process is called mutation.
A mutagen can be a chemical, physical or biological agent that causes mutation in the DNA.
Example- Physical agents such as -
- Ionizing radiations like alpha particles, gamma rays, X-rays that brings break in the DNA and cause other damages.
- Ultraviolet radiations that creates pyrimidine dimers ( T=T) and causes replication errors if damage is not repaired.
Answer:
Emulsifier generally reduces the surface tension of the lipid there by helping in the digestion of the lipid molecules.
Explanation:
Bile that is secreted from liver act as emulsifier because the bile helps in the break down of lipid into small molecules to form micelle thereby reducing the surface tension of the lipid molecules.
Due the formation of micelle the broken down lipid molecules binds to the active site of the lipase enzyme and get digested to form fatty acid and glycerol.
Beside digestion Emulsifier Bile also helps in the absoption of lipid from the small intestine.
<span>An improved functional health can have a positive
influence on physical inactivity for this is a modifiable risk factor. The prevalence of improve functional health is
higher than physical inactivity compare to other risk factors because this will
encourage an individual to have a physical activity such as biking, swimming or
any routine physical fitness. </span>
