Answer:

the oncogenes, which function as positive growth regulators, and the tumor suppressor genes, which function as negative growth regulators.

Ad libitum [116K]

The question is incomplete and the whole question is-

Interbreeding two different species of lovebirds produces offspring unable to build a nest after  they mature because they lack the innate knowledge needed to carry the nesting materials. The hybrid offspring do not reproduce, and this limits genetic mixing of the two species. This is an example of:

Answer:

The correct answer is- Hybrid infertility

Explanation:

When members of two different species reproduce and produce offspring, then these offsprings are called hybrid. If the hybrid offsprings are not able to produce viable gamete and do not able to reproduce then this is called hybrid infertility. One of the famous examples is mule produce by breeding between donkey and horse.

So here interbreeding of two species of lovebirds produces offspring that do not reproduce and lack innate knowledge needed to build the nest which limits the genetic mixing between the species due to hybrid infertility.

Rama09 [41]
<span>In Integumentary system blood vessels are found in dermis and the blood vessels contract when the body is cold.
Dermis and epidermis are layers of the skin, dermis is the thick layer of tissues and it is present under the epidermis layer.
When we feel cold, our body supplies the warm blood to the skin. When contraction of blood vessels occurs, it reduces the flow of warm blood and reduces the heat loss. When we feel hot, blood vessels dilate.</span>

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

B) Viruses are killing some of his B cells and becoming incorporated into the genomes of others.

Explanation:

Epstein-Barr virus causes infectious mononucleosis by following mechanism.

1) Epstein-Barr virus attaches to and infects epithelium of the throat where it replicates and causes pharyngitis.

2) Virions enter the lymphoid vessels and are carried to the lymph nodes. Some virions escape the lymphnode trap and are carried to the bloodstream.

3) Virions attach specifically to B lymphocytes and infect them, producing either latent infection or productive infection.

4)The infected B lymphocytes actively replicate and differentiate into cells producing random immunoglobulins.

5)T cells respond to infection and destroy the lymphocytes replicating EBV vitus.

6) Latently infected B lymphocytes become immortal. They are not attacked by T cells.

Which best explains heating by convection?
Elanso [62]

Heat Convection. Convection is heat transfer by mass motion of a fluid such as air or water when the heated fluid is caused to move away from the source of heat, carrying energy with it. Convection above a hot surface occurs because hot air expands, becomes less dense, and rises (see Ideal Gas Law).
