The code is 11644 and 12052-51.

<h3>What are lesions?</h3>

An aberrant region of tissue inside or outside the body that could expand or alter in appearance, and which might or might not be malignant.

It is possible for lesions to have sources other than underlying diseases. Birthmarks, bug bites, and scars are a few examples.

Cancerous malignant tumors exist (ie, they invade other sites). They spread through the lymphatic or blood systems to distant locations. We refer to this spreading as metastasis. Although the metastatic disease can spread to any part of the body, it most frequently affects the liver, lungs, brain, and bones.

11644 (Excision, malignant lesion including margins, face, ears, eyelids, nose, lips; excised diameter 3.1 to 4.0 cm),

12052-51 (Intermediate repair; 2.5 cm or less; face, ears, eyes, nose, lips, and/or mucous membranes).

51 modifier is for numerous processes

A gene that is normally transcriptionally active can be "silenced" if it is relocated (through experimental manipulation) to cer
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Position Effect

Explanation:

Position effect is referred to the effect on gene expression when the gene is translocated from the location it is on a chromosome to another location.

As it relates to gene silencing and euchromatic gene repositioning, Position effect variegation best explains it.

Position effect variegation occurs when a gene in some cells is silenced as a result  of rearrangement of chromosomes which translocate or reposition euchromatic genes close to vicinity of heterochomatin. It is this abnormal chromosomal juxtaposition that leads to the gene silencing in stochastic pattern.
