70% of the point mutations that cause cystic fibrosis disrupt the folding of a Cl-pump, resulting in reduced Cl-transport. What would be the effect of these mutations on the epithelial cells lining the respiratory and intestinal tracts that causes the abnormal production of a thick, sticky mucous secretion? increased frequency of action potentials in those cells decreased frequency of action potentials in those cells shrinking of those cells increased release of neurotransmitters from those cells decreased release of neurotransmitters from those cells depolarization of the membranes of those cells hyperpolarization of the membranes of those cells
