What does point of insertion mean?
Point of insertion refers to the location where a muscle attaches to a bone and is typically the more moveable or distal end of the muscle. It is where the muscle pulls or contracts to produce movement.
Which is not a frameshift mutation substitution insertion deletion or point mutation?
A point mutation is not a frameshift mutation. Point mutations involve changes in a single nucleotide base, while frameshift mutations involve the insertion or deletion of nucleotide bases, causing a shift in the reading frame of the genetic code.
Why does an insertion mutation usually cause defects during protein synthesis than a point mutation?
Insertion mutations can affect many amino acids in the protein.An insertion mutation usually causes more defects during protein synthesis than point mutation because an insertion mutation will affect many amino acids in the protein.
Define Origin and insertion?
Origin refers to the fixed attachment point of a muscle, typically the more proximal point of the muscle where it originates from a bone or other tissue. Insertion refers to the movable attachment point of a muscle, usually the more distal point where the muscle inserts onto a bone or other tissue. It is at the insertion point that the muscle exerts its force to produce movement.
