As heat is removed from water, molecules lose kinetic energy and their velocity decreases and the molecules are less likely to flow past one another.
Answer:
Y is probably excitatory and Z is probably inhibitory
Explanation:
- Two neurons communicate with each other generally by releasing neurotransmitters.
- The neuron which releases the neurotransmitter is termed as presynaptic neuron and the neuron to which the neurotransmitter binds to exert its effects is called as postsynaptic neuron.
- Based on the nature of the neurotransmitter released, the presynaptic neurons can either be inhibitory or excitatory in nature.
- The change in the membrane potential of the postsynaptic neurons depends on the total sum of inputs coming from different pre synaptic neurons at a given time.
- From the given situation, the stimulation by X alone is causing deploarization of 0.5 mV which shows that it is causing excitation, and since depolarization is increasing when X and Y are stimulaneously stimulated Y is also excitatory in nature. However the depolarisation is not occurring when X and Z are stimualted together and hence, Z is probably inhibitory in nature.
Answer:
It would most likely render the protein nonfunctional or mis-functional.
The mutation could result in three outcomes:
- Silent mutation, which changes the codon to the same amino acid. (AAA->AAG, both are lysine). But since the problem specified that it has a "slightly different amino acid sequence," we can assume this doesn't happen.
- Nonsense mutation, which changes a codon to a stop codon. This would end the chain of amino acids, making the protein potentially nonfunctional.
- Missense mutation, which changes a codon to another completely different codon. This can be harmful, as in sickle-cell disease, where just one amino acid, glutamic acid, is changed to valine.
In general, there are three types of Cell division :
- Binary fission, a division process on which a cell is completely cloned, forming 2 exact same cells
- Mitosis , a division of a somatic cell of Eukaryotic organisms
- Meioses, a cell division that produces gametes
