Frameshift mutation are the result of what occurrence?​

Biology
1 answer:
Alisiya [41]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

A frameshift mutation (also called a framing error or a reading frame shift) is a genetic mutation caused by indels (insertions or deletions) of a number of nucleotides in a DNA sequence that is not divisible by three. Due to the triplet nature of gene expression by codons, the insertion or deletion can change the reading frame (the grouping of the codons), resulting in a completely different translation from the original. The earlier in the sequence the deletion or insertion occurs, the more altered the protein. A frameshift mutation is not the same as a single-nucleotide polymorphism in which a nucleotide is replaced, rather than inserted or deleted. A frameshift mutation will in general cause the reading of the codons after the mutation to code for different amino acids. The frameshift mutation will also alter the first stop codon ("UAA", "UGA" or "UAG") encountered in the sequence. The polypeptide being created could be abnormally short or abnormally long, and will most likely not be functional.

Research shows that neurofibrillary tangles associated with the disintegration of microtubules are the primary cause of alzheime
grin007 [14]

The healthy human brain consists of billions of neurons. These neurons process the information and transmit the information in the form of various chemical and electrical signals. The neurons help exchange the information between the various parts of the brain, and between brain and the various parts of the body through the peripheral nervous system. The Alzheimer's disease disrupts this communication, resulting in the loss of function of neurons and eventual death of the neuronal cells.

Neurofibrillary tangles are abnormal accumulation of the tau proteins inside the neuron. The tau proteins are present in the ends of the microtubules that form the skeleton of the neurons. When the tau proteins detach from the microtubules and agglomerate, it leads to the tangling of the microtubule fibres inside the cell. This tangle hampers the transmission of signal through the body of the neuron.

What are the common stereotypes about the masculinity?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer: The Joker is a very popular character with boys, perhaps because laughter is part of their own “mask of masculinity.” A potential negative consequence of this stereotype is the assumption that boys and men should not be serious or emotional. However, researchers have also argued that humorous roles can be used to expand definitions of masculinity.

The Jock is always willing to “compromise his own long-term health; he must fight other men when necessary; he must avoid being soft; and he must be aggressive.” By demonstrating his power and strength, the jock wins the approval of other men and the adoration of women.

The Strong Silent Type focuses on “being in charge, acting decisively, containing emotion, and succeeding with women.” This stereotype reinforces the assumption that men and boys should always be in control, and that talking about one’s feelings is a sign of weakness.

The Big Shot is defined by his professional status. He is the “epitome of success, embodying the characteristics and acquiring the possessions that society deems valuable.” This stereotype suggests that a real man must be economically powerful and socially successful.

The Action Hero is “strong, but not necessarily silent. He is often angry. Above all, he is aggressive in the extreme and, increasingly over the past several decades, he engages in violent behavior.”

The Buffoon commonly appears as a bungling father figure in TV ads and sitcoms. Usually well-intentioned and light-hearted, these characters range from slightly inept to completely hopeless when it comes to parenting their children or dealing with domestic (or workplace) issues.
