An action potential is the signal neurons use to communicate with each other. It is caused by the rapid opening of sodium channels and influx of sodium ions. Because at rest the inside of the neuron is ne...

As there are 2 bases which are deleted a frameshift will occur at the site of the mutation. This means that all other amino acids coded for by the genes after the point of mutation will be different. This...

combines CO 2 with { ribulose bisphosphate / RuBP }
two molecules of { glycerate 3-phosphate / GP }

RUBISCO is important for the Calvin Cycle because:

It is an enzyme SO it lowers the ...

Heterozygous means that the parents both carry a dominant allele (A) and a recessive allele (a).

Dominant alleles are always expressed in the phenotype. Recessive alleles are expressed in the pheno...
