<h3>Question from alternative source</h3>
Many different types of mutations can occur within the body. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that is caused by different mutations within the CFTR gene. One mutation in the CFTR gene that leads to cystic fibrosis causes translation to end earlier in the gene sequence. Which type of mutation causes this translation error that leads to cystic fibrosis?
- silent
- missense
- nonsense
- deletion
Answer:
Nonsense
Explanation:
Nonsense mutations describe mutations that produce a premature stop codon. The stop codons are UAG, UAA, and UGA. A way in which this could arise is, for example, if there was a substution of a nucleotide in the mRNA codon UAC (which codes for the amino acid Tyrosine) to the nucleotide UAG (which codes for a stop codon).
The translation machinery would reach this codon, which signals that translation should be terminated. This would mean that the mRNA would be released, and a truncated (shortened) version of the amino acid would be produced. This is likely to be non-functional, and may even be marked for destruction by the cell.

The correct answer is option D
the pineal gland releases melatonin into the bloodstream
In the exocrine system the organ releases certain substance other than hormone while in the endocrine system , the organs releases hormones.
In option D, melatonin is a hormone released by pineal gland and thus it is an endocrine function
Muscles pectoralis, an enormous muscle that ventilates beginning from shoulder to breastbone. The serratus foremost is named for its connection deep down and its source and muscle filaments. The pectoralis major is named for its size and area in the body.
Answer:
The correct answer is- Resistance
Explanation:
The ability of any organism in a population to tolerate a chemical like insecticide, pesticide or antibiotic which is designed to kill it or slow its reproduction is called resistance.
For example, the antibiotic resistance is seen in some bacteria like MRSA(Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus). They gain this resistance because they have some variant traits in their genome which provide them resistance against these chemicals.
These individual are selected through natural selection when the environmental condition changes and become adverse. So the correct answer is resistance.
