This would directly affect the epidermis because blisters will develop within the surface of the skin. Having blisters on the epidermis will decrease the function of the skin to be an effective barrier to disease. This is because blisters are open wounds that are prone to infection. As infection passes through these openings, it will affect the dermis and the other layers of the skin. Bullae is actually an auto-immune skin disease.
Competition allows science to advance at a faster pace.
Think of it as an arms race: when a country builds one battleship, their enemy builds two. This continues as both countries try to outdo each other. Competitive science works the same way.
Answer:
Bad mutation: deletion/addition mutation
Good mutation: silent mutation
Explanation:
Addition or deletion mutation results in the reading frame of codons to be changed, leading to a extensive missense mutation that will lead to a non-functional protein product to form.
Good mutation are silent mutations that leads to no change to the final product but causes codons to change in sequence. This increases genetic diversity in the gene pool that enables the species to be more resilient to environmental changes.
