Answer:
True
Explanation:
When the resting potential of the membrane is changed, the membrane becomes either more negative inside or less negative. This small deviation from the resting potential is called graded potential. A graded potential occurs when a stimulus triggers opening or closing of the mechanically gated or ligand-gated channels present in the plasma membrane.
For example, the presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitters in response to a nerve impulse. The neurotransmitter binds to receptors present in the plasma membrane of the postsynaptic neuron and triggers the opening of the ion channels to allow the inflow of particular ions to flow. The flow of ions changes the voltage across the membrane. This change in membrane voltage is a postsynaptic potential and is a type of graded potential.
This mutation type is a substitution mutation. Substitution mutations may be silent or may have adverse effects (missense mutation).
Adverse effects come about because the change in codons in mRNA transcribed from the DNA strand. A point substitution can change the amino acid being coded for in the particular polypeptide change. If that animo acid is a structural residue of the protein, the structure of the protein will be altered, which may or may not lead to a change in protein function. If that particular amino acid is a catalytic residue of the protein, it may alter the 3D conformation and charge of the active site (if protein is an enzyme) or the binding site of protein. Function of protein formed from mutated DNA will be lost or altered.

The answer is <span>reuptake.
Reuptake is a term used when a neurotransmitter is taken back by the axon after being used. By doing reuptake, the synapse will be cleaned out of the neurotransmitter, making it stop giving the signal.
Some drug target reuptake mechanism like serotonin reuptake inhibitor that used for depression. This drug can increase serotonin by inhibiting the reuptake mechanism.</span>
Answer:
2-Water helps maintain body temperature.
3-Diuretics like alcohol and some medications can cause the body to lose water.
Explanation:
Dehydration occurs when the amount of what loss is more than the amount taken. And we lose water in many ways therefore taking water on a regular basis is important to replace the fluids lost and keep the body functioning.
Water Maintains the Body Temperature
During high temperature, the body cools itself naturally by sweating and by sweating a large amount of water is lost. So when enough water is not taken, there will be less production of sweating thereby causing the body's temperature to rise.
Alcohol Causes Water Loss
Taking excess alcohol can result to dehydration because the hormone called anti-diuretic (while alcohol is diuretic) is used to reabsorb water by the body and alcohol in the body depletes the production of this hormone. The body loses more water than normal with a reduced amount of anti-diuretic in the body. Excessive intake of alcohol can also cause vomiting, which depletes the body of fluids and can cause further dehydration.
