Mutations are changes in nucleotide sequence. Some are neutral because whatever amino acid substitutions they cause do not serio

usly affect the final protein. A frameshift mutation, however, can change a protein's function. To what does the frame and frameshift refer? Is it A: to a shift from the DNA framework to the RNA framework, or is it B: a shift in nucleotide groupings?

Answer:

The correct answer is B: a shift in nucleotide groupings

Explanation:

Frameshift mutation is caused by the addition or deletion of base pairs in the protein-coding regions of DNA during replication. Nucleotides are arranged in a group of three which are called codons that code for a particular amino acid during protein formation.  

This translational reading frame of codon disrupts when any nucleotide gets added in the reading frame or gets subtracted from it because it cause the shifting of the translational reading frame.

This shift in nucleotide group can lead to the formation of inactive protein or functionally changed protein. Therefore the correct answer is B.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

How is the endocrine system related to the nervous system in terms of its regulatory activity?

For one, the endocrine system uses chemical signaling (hormones, produced by glands) while the nervous system uses electrical signaling (neural impulses). The signal transmission of the nervous system is fast because neurons are interconnected, but the functions are more short-lived.

Above 380C and below OoC the rate of photosynthesis decreases. Propose a hypothesis to explain why this occurs.
Effectus [21]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Enzyme activity decrease at these temperatures. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Photosynthesis is facilitated by the action of various enzymes and involves light and dark reactions.  In <em>light reactions chlorophyll absorbs sunlight and creates ATP AND NADPH</em>. In dark reactions carbon is fixed using the <em>ATP and NADPH. </em>

The efficiency of all these activities depends on the activity of enzymes which depends on the temperature. The optimum temperature range where the enzyme activity is optimal is about <em>10°c - 20°c</em>. At low temperatures and high temperatures enzyme activity is less efficient.

<em>At a temperature above 38°c and below  0°c enzyme activity decreases. </em>
