Ricin comes under the category of functionally related toxins, in a combination known as RIPs (ribosome inactivating proteins). This disables ribosomes and stops the process of protein synthesis.  

They directly associate with and inactivate the ribosomes or modify the factors taking part in the process of translation, generally the elongation step. These proteins bring about depurination of adenine at position 4324 in the 28 S rRNA.  

This further inhibits the generation of a critical-stem-loop configuration to which the elongation factor is considered to combine at the time of the translocation step of translation. The ultimate outcome of this activity is the complete inhibition of cellular translation.

Answer:

The given blank can be filled with minimum viable population.

Explanation:

The MVP or the minimum viable population refers to the lowest number of individuals or the minimum density of the population of a species that can thrive in a specific region. The term is generally used in the fields of ecology, biology, and conservation biology.  

The minimum viable population refers to the smallest probable size at which the population can prevail without encountering extinction due to demographic or natural disasters, genetic, or environmental stochasticity. Generally, MVP is utilized to signify towards a wild population, however, it can also be utilized for ex-situ conservation.
