Answer:    A. Anticonvulsants

Explanation:  Nuropathic pain, or as doctors call it invisible pain, is associated with damage to the nerves, the nervous system. More specifically, it is a damage to the substance that surrounds the nerves, this substance is called myelin.  Neuropathic pain can occur in both the peripheral and central nervous systems, and can be the result of injury that causes damage to myelin or some disease.

Anticonvulsants are used to reduce neuropathic pain, acting as, let's say, calm effect on the nerves, i.e. reducing their sensitivity, which occurs due to damage of mylelin.

Which structure maintains homeostasis by controlling the concentration of solutes within a cell?
arsen [322]
<span>Proper control over the contents of a cell is essential in ensuring that the cell maintains homeostasis and is able to operate within its necessary bounds. And that very important responsibility falls to the cell's plasma membrane, which is the barrier that serves as the interface between the cell and the exterior, including with regards to allowing the passage of solutes across the cell boundary.</span>

What is the significance of understanding changes to the information stored in DNA?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

DNA is essentially a storage molecule. It contains all of the instructions a cell needs to sustain itself. These instructions are found within genes, which are sections of DNA made up of specific sequences of nucleotides. In order to be implemented, the instructions contained within genes must be expressed, or copied into a form that can be used by cells to produce the proteins needed to support life.

The instructions stored within DNA are read and processed by a cell in two steps: transcription and translation. Each of these steps is a separate biochemical process involving multiple molecules. During transcription, a portion of the cell's DNA serves as a template for creation of an RNA molecule. (RNA, or ribonucleic acid, is chemically similar to DNA, except for three main differences described later on in this concept page.) In some cases, the newly created RNA molecule is itself a finished product, and it serves an important function within the cell. In other cases, the RNA molecule carries messages from the DNA to other parts of the cell for processing. Most often, this information is used to manufacture proteins. The specific type of RNA that carries the information stored in DNA to other areas of the cell is called messenger RNA, or mRNA

Help please!! Ill give brainliest!!
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

D. Arg is replaced by His

Explanation:

The code is read in groups of 3 (triplets), so the triplet that is changed is:

G<u>C</u>A -> G<u>T</u>A

From the table, we know that GCA results in the amino acid ARG.

However the C changed to a T in the mutation so the trip is now GTA which codes for His instead according to the table. Therefore Arg is replaced by His. It is option D.
