Athletes train at high altitude, thereby increasing the number of red blood cells, to improve their performance. How might an increase in the number of red blood cells improve an athletes
performance?​

Preparing at moderate height may improve ocean level execution in perseverance competitors. This was noted after the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City (7600 feet) when a few competitors found an improvement in their presentation after re-visitation of ocean level. Be that as it may, different competitors didn't see any distinction in execution. Studies have indicated improved high-impact power in sprinters who prepared at 6,000 feet for 10 days at that point performed at low elevation. Lower oxygen levels at elevation invigorate EPO prompting expanded red platelets or hematocrit. This viably permits more oxygen to be conveyed to the tissues. Basically, this is blood doping the regular way.  

Late examinations do propose profits by 'preparing low' and 'dozing high'. This incorporates hypoxic tents that numerous competitors are presently utilizing. These tents have a generator that extricates oxygen from the air, establishing a moderate height climate. Competitors at that point rest/relax in them for a few hours per day. This invigorates erythropoietin, subsequently expanding the hematocrit (red platelet tally). Without a doubt the 'live high, train low' idea may permit the best blend. One examination separated 39 contenders into three preparing gatherings; living and preparing adrift level, living at height and preparing adrift level, living at elevation and preparing at height. The two gatherings who inhabited height had expanded red platelets and VO2max, however just the gathering who lived high and prepared adrift level had improved race times. One clarification for this is that the live high, train low gathering can prepare more diligently and better use their blood's oxygen conveying limit. As a result of expanded red cell creation, all competitors preparing as well as resting at elevation should ensure they have proper iron stores and nourishment. This is particularly valid for ladies, as they will in general have lower iron stores because of occasional loss of blood through monthly cycle.

the types of mutations include: missense mutation: this type of mutation is a change in one dna base pair that results in the substitution of one amino acid for another in the protein made by a gene. nonsense mutation: a nonsense mutation is also a change in one dna base pair.

explanation:

it's     c       this is a cell (b) with a nucleus (c) containing dna (a). the dna is organized into chromosomes (d). a section of the chromosome that codes for a trait is called a gene (e).
