Answer:

The correct answer is option c. "frameshift mutations".

Explanation:

The reading frame of a gene is based on base-pair triplets, starting from the start codon until the ribosome encounters with the end codon. Base-pair additions and deletions are collectively referred to as frameshift mutations because they alter the reading frame of the gene. Base-pair additions and deletions break down the original sequence of the gene triplets, which alters the open reading frame and usually results in the production of non active proteins.

What are endorphins and how do these chemicals alter the communication of pain in the body?
Solnce55 [7]

Endorphins are brain chemicals known as neurotransmitters which are released when the body feels a certain amount of stress and pain. Endorphins alter the communication of pain in the body by interacting with the opiate receptors and blocking the synapse so that signals cannot be sent to the brain in order to reduce an individual perception of pain.

The chemical equation shown represents photosynthesis.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer: <u>Option B; It traps light energy and converts it into chemical energy. </u>

This substance is chlorophyll. It is a pigment present in leaves of all plants. It absorbs light energy and provides it to carry out the process of photosynthesis. Light energy is converted into chemical energy, in form of NADPH and ATP, which can be used by plants for photosynthesis.

This pigment is present only in plants, so option A is incorrect.

This pigment only absorbs and transfers energy to other molecules, and is not associated with carbon dioxide directly, so option C and D are also incorrect.
