Somatic mutation, genetic alteration acquired by a cell that can be passed to the progeny of the mutated cell in the course of cell division. Somatic mutations differ from germ line mutations, which are inherited genetic alterations that occur in the germ cells (i.e., sperm and eggs).

Mutation can be defined as the permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that builds up the gene.Mutation can be inherited when they are acquired by the offspring from their parents.Such mutation are called germ line mutations because they occur in germ cells-sperm and egg.These mutations are present in almost all cells since it is passed on from parents to offspring.

A number of mutations have been described in the G protein Ras that have profound effects on its activity. For example, some mut

gladu [14]

Answer:

a mutation that blocks the GTPase activity of Ras

Explanation:

A G protein in inactive state is GDP bound but as soon as a guanine exchange factor (GEF) exchanges it with GTP it gets activated which means that in GTP bound state it is active. G - protein has endogenous GTPase activity. Upon interaction of GAP, the GTPase activity of this protein is exhibited. When GAP is present, hydrolysis of GTP into GDP occurs which leads to inactivation of G protein. A mutation which will block GTPase activity of Ras will therefore result in constitutive active signaling even in the absence of ligand binding to it's receptor. In such scenario, GTP will not be hydrolyzed into GDP so signaling will be up-regulated.

Allushta [10]

Temperature, humidity and elevation are the two major factors determining the distribution of terrestrial biomes.

A region of land with a similar climate and comparable plant and animal communities is referred to as a terrestrial biome. Different terrestrial biomes are typically described in terms of the trees, shrubs, and grasses that inhabit them.

The Terrestrial biome type is influenced by variables including latitude, humidity, and elevation:
A Terrestrial biome's latitude indicates how far it is from the equator. You will find the Arctic, boreal, temperate, subtropical, and tropical biomes as you move from the poles to the equator
The amount of water in the air is known as humidity. Humid air is defined as having a high concentration of water vapor.
The biomes will be referred to as semi-humid, semi-arid, or arid as we move away from the most humid environment (the driest).
Elevation refers to the elevation of land above sea level. It becomes chilly.
