These medicines are called antisecretory because they work by blocking the acid secretion of the stomach.

This is the case of the H2 antihistamine (such as Cimetidine) which has a rapid action (approximately 1 hour) but longer than an antacid.

When symptoms are frequent, occurring more than once a week, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) (such as Omeprazole), antisecretory agents of potent and prolonged action (at least 24 hours), constitute the treatment of choice.

Explanation:

A medication that increases the pH of the stomach and makes it alkaline is actually helping in neutralizing the acid forming in the stomach.

When there is excess of acid into the stomach then intake of a base helps in balancing the excess of acid by providing suitable amount of hydroxide ions.

Thus, we can conclude that this medication will have a neutralizing effect.

a point mutation changes the DNA sequence CGA to CGT but the same protein is still produced. which point mutation occurred
notsponge [240]

Answer: The correct answer is silent mutation . In this type of mutation there is no change in  the phenotype of the individual which means there occurs a mutation where two different amino acid codes for the same protein .There are sequences present in the body where a point mutation occurs but the protein formed is still the same .If you will see the genotype you can easily observe that the amino acid sequence is different but the protein formed is same. Example AAA codes for lysine and the amino acid lysine is formed by AAG .
