a group of mutations, known as mt-nd1
mt-nd1
, have been identified in mitochondrial dna
dna
. these mutations are associated with a number of debilitating diseases stemming from the production of nonfunctional proteins in the mitochondria.

which of the following cellular deficiencies would most likely be related to these mt-nd1
mt-nd1
mutations?

the cell is unable to synthesize most proteins required for normal cell functions.
0
a

the cell is unable to break down toxic materials and would accumulate large volumes of these materials.
0
b

the cell is able to synthesize proteins, but the proteins would not fold properly and would not contain the correct molecular tags for export from the cell.
0
c

the cell is unable to complete reactions related to electron transport and atp
atp
production

The cell is unable to complete reactions related to electron transport and ATP

ATP production.

Explanation:

The correct answer is D).

Explanation:

The electron transport chain and ATP production are associated with proteins in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion.

Nonfunctional proteins in the mitochondrion are likely to result in reduced ATP production.

d. organisms have cells with different shapes and functions.

the circled areas are referred to   as sunspots.   the sunspots are cooler than the   surrounding area.

sunspots are temporary phenomena on the photosphere of the sun that appear visibly as dark spots compared to surrounding regions. they correspond to concentrations of magnetic field flux that inhibit convection and result in reduced surface temperature compared to the surrounding photosphere.
