Carbohydrates are naturally occurring sugars, starches and fiber in food. All carbohydrates are made up of sugar molecules. Sugar molecules linked together form starches and fiber. In the body, starches and sugars are broken down in the digestive system to glucose.
This would mean a change in base sequence, which is very important for the proteins to carry out their function. It could lead to a mutation and a change in the role of the protein.
A nurse suspects that the IV line through which Doxorubicin (adriamycin) is infusing has infiltrated. The nurse has discontinued the IV site.
The nurse should IMMEDIATELY APPLY ICE PACK TO THAT AREA. Ice pack helps to reduce the absorption of the drug doxorubicin and thus minimize the its effect.
Both parents must be carriers, which means they have the heterozygous gene (one uppercase letter & one lower case letter). They will still carry that mutated gene (because they have a lower case letter), and their offspring will have a 25% chance of getting a recessive disorder. The percentage is low but still possible.
Growth factors are hormones, proteins, or steroid molecules that regulate many cellular functions. They can stimulate the cell division by giving the signal to the cell to progress in the cell cycle.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Growth factors are naturally produced within the body and travels through the body to bind to their receptors present on their target cells. These growth factors are capable of signalling the cell to divide, proliferate, or heel. Their main aim is to signal or tell other cell when to do and what to do. Due to the binding with the receptors the growth factors activates specific genes.
