Assuming that the rest of the genome is normal, cells with an inactivating mutation in one copy of a tumor-suppressor gene with the second copy of the gene still wild-type are most likely to show no changes in DNA sequence.

Tumor suppressor genes are normally present in the body. These function properly and keep processing the cell growth and cell death (apoptosis). It can also suppress tumor development. If both copies of a tumor suppressor gene is mutated then only it cause a change in cell growth and form a tumor. So these are recessive in nature. And if only one gene is mutated then it shows no mutation. When a tumor suppressor gene is inactivated by mutation, the protein it encodes is not produced or does not function properly, and as a result, uncontrolled cell division can occur. Such mutations can contribute to the development of cancer.

How do birds deal with their eyes drying out at high speeds?
denis23 [38]
The bird's eye contains a nictitating membrane which is a translucent, semitransparent inner eyelid. It sweeps across the surface of the eye enabling the bird to blink without losing sight of or without blocking their view.

Birds also have two different tear glands. One type of tear gland is located along the lower eyelid while the other is located at the base of the nictitating membrane. The second tear gland lubricates the bird's eyes whenever the nictitating membrane blinks.

In tomato's, red fruit (R) is dominant over yellow fruit (r). What is the probability that an offspring of plants that are heter
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

1 out of 4

or

25%

Explanation:

First we draw a Punnett Square for this:

          R      r

   R    RR    Rr

   r     Rr     rr

So here we have the following genotypes possible for this cross:

RR = homozygous dominant

Rr = heterozygous dominant

rr = homozygous recessive

As you can see out of the four (4) possible outcomes, one (1) of them is rr. So the probability is 1 out of 4 chances or 25%.

How many oxygen atoms are in 6 co2 and 6 h2o
Sliva [168]
There would be 18 oxygen atoms total in CO2 and H2O. 
2 oxygen atoms per CO2, times 6 because there are six CO2 molecules, plus 6 times 1 oxygen atom in H2O.

A woman exerts 100n of force to lift a laundry basket weighing 75 n show work
Andru [333]

In order to calculate the work done, you need to know how far she lifted it.  We don't know the distance, so it's not possible to calculate the work.

All we have right now is a laundry basket that weighs 75N being lifted with 100N of force.  Reading carefully, we know that the vertical forces on the laundry basket are unbalanced, and the NET force on it is 25N upward.

We can go further if we assume that all of this is happening on Earth.  Then, since the basket's weight is 75N, its mass is (W/g) = 7.653 kg.  From Newton #2, we know that F=mA, which we can re-arrange to state that A = F/m. So in the case of the unfortunate laundry basket,

A = F/m = (25N / 7.653 kg) = <em>3.27 m/s²</em> .

The laundry basket is accelerating to the sky as we speak, at the rate of 3.27 meters per second².  As it cleared the fence a few moments ago, Mrs. O'Leary's cows next door spotted it, panicked, ran into the barn and clear through the back wall into the pasture.  Now, a full minute after lift-off, the laundry basket has achieved a vertical velocity 196 m/s, and is 5.88 kilometers downrange.  After a simple roll maneuver, it may be in orbit soon, if the 100N force on it continues.

What is the evidence that supports the autogenic hypothesis?
disa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

The hypothesis is supported by the studies on mitochondria. The mitochondria contains its own DNA and sythesizes many of its RNA and proteins. The mitochondrial protein synthesis machine, the ribosomes are similar to those found in bacteria. Similar to the bacterial cells, the mitochondria also contain circular genome
