This is #105, with the passage about drug X and Y and acetylcholine.
An autosomal recessive, non-lethal mutation (deletion) of the ACh receptor gene occurs in some rats. Which of the following organelles will most likely be abnormal in the rats having this mutation?
A. Microtubules
B. Ribosomes
C. Endoplasmic reticulum
D. Plasma membrane
answer is D.
Question is so vague and i'm not sure exactly what it is testing because an abnormal protein doesn't really indicate an abnormal organelle!
"A mutation that affected the ACh receptor gene would most likely result in 'abnormal' plasma membranes."
