Ribonucleic acid (rna) and additional deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) surrounds genes. in a process called methylation, they enhance, silence, or alter genetic instructions.

<h3>What is DNA methylation?</h3>
  • Adding methyl groups to the DNA molecule is a biological process known as DNA methylation. Methylation has the ability to change a DNA region's activity without changing the sequence.
  • When DNA methylation takes place at a gene promoter, it frequently decreases gene transcription.
  • DNA methylation plays an important role in a number of critical processes in mammals, including aging, cancer, X-chromosome inactivation, genomic imprinting, and transposable element repression.
  • The majority of eukaryotic genomes contain DNA methylation, a dynamic epigenetic alteration. It is well recognized to cause a high rate of CpG to TpG mutations.
  • However, nothing is known about the connection between the rate of germline mutation and the dynamics of methylation during germline development.

A) genetic bottleneck.

B) sexual selection.

C) habitat differentiation.

D) founder effect.

The RIGHT ANSWER IS D)

D) founder effect.

Explanation:

The founder effect refers to a loss in genetic variation due to formation of a new population from few number of individuals out of a larger population.

Name two types of proteins that regulate the cell cycle. How do these proteins work?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Internal and external regulators are two types of proteins that regulate the cell cycle. Internal regulators allow the cell cycle to proceed only after certain events occur. External regulators speed up or slow down the cell cycle.

Explanation:

I hope this helps :)

Which pathway is affected by an inherited mutation in the atm gene?
Katena32 [7]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

photoreactivation

reactivation repair pathway

nucleotide excision repair pathway

UV repair pathway

p53 repair pathway

Answer:

p53 repair pathway

Explanation:

ATM gene or ataxia telangiectasia-mutated is a gene which codes for the protein kinase involved in the DNA double-stranded break.

The DNA double-stranded break is repaired easily as the protein kinase is recruited to the site of the break where it allows the DNA repair machinery to repair the DNA.

The gene also controls the cell growth therefore this gene is important to study cancer.  Since the p53 protein is a suppressor protein which if mutated is repaired by the ATM gene and if the gene becomes mutated then the p53 repair pathway is affected.

Thus, p53 repair pathway is the correct answer.
