If a single base pair gets damaged and goes missing from an rna, what would most likely happen?

A frame-shift mutation would occur. This is because a deletion will cause a change in codon sequence from the point of mutation to the end of the mRNA. If the mutation is closer to the start of the mRNA, the larger the effect of the mutation on the translated protein.

What surrounds the cell and controls the movement of substances in and out

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The plasma membrane is made up by a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins that separates the internal contents of the cell from its surrounding environment. Only relatively small, non- polar materials can easily move through the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane.

The outer hair cells change length in response to basilar membrane motion. What does that accomplish?

olga nikolaevna [1]

Outer hair cells change their axial dimensions in response to electrical stimulation.

What is basilar membrane motion?

Hair cell stereocilia move as a result of the basilar membrane's movement. The tectorial membrane and the hair cells, which are connected to the basilar membrane, move along with it when it moves, and the stereocilia bend in response to the relative motion of the tectorial membrane.

The hair cells that are linked to the auditory nerve fibers are stimulated by the basilar membrane's movement. While the outside hair cells actively affect the basilar membrane's vibrations, the inner hair cells convert hydromechanical vibration into action potentials.

With each sound cycle, the intracellular voltage of the outer hair cells varies, causing them to lengthen and contract. This increases the organ of Corti's vibration, enabling exceptionally high hearing sensitivity and frequency selectivity.

Pietro has two dogs that are related, and he wants to understand why one of the dogs has tan fur and the other has brown fur.

kompoz [17]

Polygenic inheritance is simply a form of inheritance whereby the trait of the individual or the animal is gotten from the cumulative effects of several genes. In such case, there are many genes which control the expression of the trait. This is quite different from the monogenic inheritance whereby the trait is as a result of the expression of just only one gene.

Since Pietro has two dogs that are related, and one of the dogs has tan fur and the other has brown fur, then this means there's more than one gene which is expressed in this case.

In conclusion, the answer to the question is polygenic inheritance.
