Answer:

Cell membrane

Explanation:

According to the question, Lauren's diseased condition, which is cystic fibrosis, is characterized by her body's inability to control the flow of salt into and out of her cells leading to symptoms include coughing and wheezing when she tries to exercise.

Lauren's inability to control the movement of salt and water into her cells is as a result of an affected CELL MEMBRANE. The cell membrane is the organelle that controls what goes in and out of a cell due to its semi-permeability.

Nonsense mutations occur when a codon that is supposed to specify an amino acid is changed to a stop codon instead. This results in a protein that is shorter than normal because it cannot finish adding all the necessary amino acids.

5. According to a biomass pyramid, 50 mice will need 200 square meters of grass, if one mouse needs to eat four square meters of
netineya [11]

Answer:

The statement is true.

Explanation:

As every single living organism, the mice also have their own unique requirements as to how much food they need to produce enough energy in order to stay healthy. Because the mice are small, warm-blooded, highly active, and have very fast metabolisms, they need a lot of food for their size.

If one mouse needs four square meters of grass to stay healthy, so if we want to find out how much grass is needed for more mice we just need to multiply the number of mice by the amount of grass needed for one mice. In this case, we have 50 mice:

4 x 50 = 200

We got 200 square meters of grass, meaning that that would be the amount/area of grass that will be enough to support the population of 50 mice.
