Answer:
Seminal vesicle
Explanation:
Seminal vesicle secretes an alkaline and viscous fluid that constitutes about 60% of the volume of semen. The fluid secreted by seminal vesicle contains fructose which is a monosaccharide sugar, prostaglandins, and clotting proteins. The alkaline nature of the seminal fluid neutralizes the acidic environment of the male urethra and the female reproductive tract. This is required as the acidic conditions inactivate and kill sperm.
The fructose sugar serves a fuel for ATP production by sperm. Prostaglandins are responsible for sperm motility and viability as they stimulate smooth muscle contractions within the female reproductive tract. Therefore, a malfunctioning seminal vesicle would result in low semen volume and reduced motility due to the scarcity of energy.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:
Which of the following mutations is most likely to cause a phenotypic change?
A) a duplication of all or most introns
B) a large inversion whose ends are each in intergenic regions
C) a nucleotide substitution in an exon coding for a transmembrane domain
D) a single nucleotide deletion in an exon coding for an active site
E) a frameshift mutation one codon away from the 3' end of the nontemplate strand
Answer: D) a single nucleotide deletion in an exon coding for an active site
Explanation:
Deletion or insertion of a single nucleotide in an axon coding for an active site is called frameshift mutation.
The sequence of codons is read during translation, in order to synthesize a amino acids chain and form a protein from the nucleotide sequence. Frameshift mutations occur when the usual codon sequence is broken by the deletion or addition of one or more nucleotides. For example, if only one nucleotide is removed from the axon sequence during the RNA splicing process, then there will be a disrupted reading frame for all codons before and after the mutation. This may result in several incorrect amino acids being introduced into the protein. Disruption in protein sequence will cause phenotypic change.
Hence, the correct option is D) a single nucleotide deletion in an exon coding for an active site
