Answer:
b. Frank received the mutant chromosome from his father. Nondisjunction occurred in his father during the first meiotic division.
Explanation:
As you can see in the question above, Frank has Klinefelter syndrome which causes him to have normal skin patches and skin patches without sweat glands. Her mother has completely normal hair, which may indicate that the defective gene was not supplied by her. In addition, Frank's father has anhydrotic ectodermal dysplasia, an X-linked condition where the skin does not contain sweat glands.
Although Frank's father's defective gene is linked to the X chromosome, it is likely that Frank inherited the defective gene from his country. This may have occurred because during meiosis I, his father's genes did not show disjunction. As a result, Frank presents a mosaic of his phenotype, because an inactivation of the X chromosome occurred.
Building a polypeptide: Polymers are chains of subunits, monomers, linked together by chemical bonds. The bond between two amino acids is known as a peptide bond<span>. Two amino acids, joined together by a </span>peptide bond<span>, are known as a </span>dipeptide<span>. An amino acid polymer is known as a polypeptide.</span>
Answer:
Option-C
Explanation:
Action potential refers to the generation of electrical activity due to the influx and efflux of ions in the cell.
The cell which transmits the action potential is known as the neuron and the neuron maintains the membrane potential at -70 mv. The influx of sodium ions causes depolarization when it crosses the threshold value.
The generated action potential now travels in the neuron through its long tubular structure called an axon. The axon transmits the signal from the cell body towards the axon terminal and thus is known as the down the axon.
Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
