<u>Cytosine base</u> is methylated in DNA methylation.

  • A biological process called DNA methylation involves the addition of methyl groups to the DNA molecule.
  • Without altering the sequence, methylation can modify the activity of a DNA region.
  • DNA methylation often suppresses gene transcription when it occurs at a gene promoter.
  • DNA methylation is the process of adding a methyl group to DNA, further altering gene function and impacting gene expression.
  • Cytosine and adenine, two of the four bases in DNA, are the bases that can be methylated.
  • The most frequent DNA methylation in humans is the covalent attachment of a methyl group to the fifth carbon of the cytosine ring, producing the product 5-methylcytosine.

True or false conductive hearing loss results from damage to the inner ear or the vestibularcochlear nerve
pickupchik [31]
Conductive hearing loss occurs from either (1) blockage from the external ear or (2) damage to any components of the middle ear; hence the answer here is false. Hearing loss that results from damage to the inner ear or the vestibulocochlear nerve is called <em>sensorineural hearing loss</em>. 

<em>The most common cause of sensorineural hearing loss is noise-induced hearing loss due to prolonged exposure to high decibel environments (i.e. machine workers). </em>
