Mechanoreceptors are stimulated by changes in pressure or movements of body fluidsSourceIntroduction to the Human Bodyby Gerard Tortora and Bryan Derrickson
The electrical charge in nerves is caused by the movement of ions, such as sodium and potassium, across the nerve cell membrane. This movement creates a difference in electrical charge between the inside and outside of the cell, known as the membrane potential. When a nerve is stimulated, this membrane potential changes, allowing for the transmission of electrical signals along the nerve cell.
A toaster changes electrical energy to heat.
The motor changes electrical energy into mechanical (torque) energy.
When a protein sequence changes, it can impact the structure and function of the protein. This can result in altered protein-protein interactions, changes in enzymatic activity, or disruption of protein folding. In some cases, protein sequence changes can lead to diseases or abnormalities in cellular processes.
Changes in a DNA sequence of a single gene is called a point mutation. These mutations can be harmful or not to the organism.
That is called an electrical current.
No. Mutations are changes in a genomic sequence. Blue eyes are not changes.

Epigenetics refers to changes in gene expression that do not involve changes to the underlying DNA sequence, while mutations are changes in the DNA sequence itself. Epigenetic changes can be reversible and can affect how genes are turned on or off, influencing gene expression and inheritance without altering the DNA sequence. Mutations, on the other hand, are permanent changes to the DNA sequence that can lead to altered gene function and inheritance patterns.
