Hi,

If a point mutation occurs during which  CGA changes to AGA, the mutation will be simply inherited to the offspring and there won't be any harsh effects on the health of individual.

This is because, both AGA and CGA code for same amino acid called Arginine.

We know that mutations posses harmful effects when they change the genetic sequence leading to the incorporation of incorrect amino acid in the organisms and their offspring. But in this case the mutation will not be harmful and will simply be transferred to the offspring and will have no effect on the functioning, fitness or survival of the organism

Hope it helps!:)

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Platelets would release signals to stimulate the production of more platelets

Explanation:

Positive feedback mechanism is one of the two types of feedback mechanisms (other being negative feedback mechanism) in which the products of a process stimulates more of that product to be synthesized or produced. In other words, the result of a reaction increases the secretion of more results.

In this case where the injured tissue of a cut initially releases chemical signals into the bloodstream. These chemicals signal platelets to be attracted to the injured area. However, if this is a positive feedback mechanism as explained above, Platelets would release signals to stimulate the production of more platelets.

Paha777 [63]

Sense of smell

Sense of smell is known to be part of the chemosensory system or chemical senses. It also a warning system that alert to danger signals such as fire, gas leakage or spoiled food. Thus, the sense of smell comes from the specialized sensory cells known as olfactory sensory neurons.
