Answer:

Nonsense mutation. A nonsense mutation is also a change in one DNA base pair. Instead of substituting one amino acid for another, however, the altered DNA sequence prematurely signals the cell to stop building a protein. This type of mutation results in a shortened protein that may function improperly or not at all.Sep 21, 2020

The stimulation of an inadequate number of sodium channels for the generation of a positive sodium channel feedback loop is cons
diamong [38]

Answer:

Sub-threshold

Explanation:

If the stimulus is too small to generate the action potential, it is considered as subthreshold stimulus. Subthreshold stimulus causes the opening of small number of sodium channel i.e. not enough to generate action potential because action potential is generated by complete reversal of membrane polarity. Slight depolarization is caused by subthreshold stimulus by the opening of inadequate number of sodium channel but its magnitude is not enough to reach the threshold voltage. Consequently the action potential is not generated.

The response produced by subthreshold stimulus is called as local response or local depolarization because it could not travel further. The minimum stimulus required to generate the action potential is call as threshold stimulus and stimulus greater than threshold stimulus is called as suprathreshold stimulus. It changes the frequency of generated action potential.

Type of nitrogenous base with a double ring found in DNA and RNA:
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B (purine).

Explanation:

Nucleic acid structure is made up of monomer unit called nucleotide. Each nucleotide is composed of a five-carbon sugar, a phosphate group and five types of nitrogenous bases.

The nitrogenous bases are categorized in two forms the purines (adenine and guanine ) and the pyrimidines (cytosine, thymine and uracil). The "purines" contain double rings in their structure due to which they appear larger in size than pyrimidines which are made up of single rings.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
