A frameshift mutation completely changes the genetic code from the point of the mutation, so the protein made as a result of the mutation would have the incorrect structure and would not function as it should.

When a frameshift mutation occurs, the string of DNA will be glued together. When this DNA is going to be part of a process, such as a transcription, whatever is causing the process is unaware of the mutation actually having happened.

Mutations in ubiquitin lead to malfunction of what organelle in ALS that leads to buildup of mis-folded proteins?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Mitochondria.

Explanation:

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder in which the neuron died due to mutation in superoxide dismutase 1 gene. This disease is also known as Lou Gehrig's disease.

Mitochondria structure is disorganized in ALS. The ubiquitin protein mutation leads to the malfunctioning of mitochondria and misfolded proteins are made in the mitochondria.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a).

Which causes a sea breeze?
vodka [1.7K]

The wind will blow from the higher pressure over the water to lower pressure over the land causing the sea breeze.

This causes the low surface pressure to shift to over the ocean during the night and the high surface pressure to move over the land.
