The protein encoded by the mutant allele is shorter than the one encoded by the normal allele, the protein encoded by the mutant allele could be non-functional and the mutant allele could be associated with disease. In addition, DNA and mutation can happen possibly wherever on these molecules at any time. The most severe variations take place in the useful units of DNA is the genes in which the mutated form of a gene is named a mutant allele.

Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called
Karolina [17]

Answer: Bundles of axons in the central nervous system are called a "tract"

Explanation:

Axons(nerve fiber) consist of long slender projection of neurons or nerve cells that conduct and transmit impulses away from the neuron or nerve cell body. Axons are surrounded by endoneurium layer which contain protein fluid that surround each axon.

Bundles of axon in the CNS is known as tract. We have ascending tracts and descending tracts. The ascending tracts function are to conduct and carry impulses along the spinal cord to the brain while the descending tracts transmit and carry the impulses from the brain to lower regions (downward) of the body. Tracts are identified by their origin (where the bundle start) and also the end/termination of axon bundle.

The largest tracts are fasciculi gracilis and cuneatus which are known as ascending tracts.

notsponge [240]

<u>Answer:</u>

Carbon is found in hydrosphere in the form of dissolved carbon in ocean and sea water during the gas exchange process.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Carbon cycle is the process of transformation of carbon in different forms. From atmosphere, the carbon gets into hydrosphere during the gas exchange processes.
  • During this gas exchange process, the carbon is dissolved in the ocean water which is later utilized by marine plants to conduct photosynthesis.
  • There is a continuous transformation of carbon from lands, plants to atmosphere and from atmosphere to hydrosphere.
