Mutations can affect chromosome number or structure. Among these last ones, deletion and duplication affect affect the number of genes. Translocation and inversion affect gene sequences. A) Translocation B) Deletion C) Inversion D) Duplication.

<h3>What are chromosomic mutations?</h3>

DNA suffers different mutations and changes. These mutations might affect chromosomes by altering a gene sequence or a chromosomal fragment.

There are two types of chromosomal mutations which depend on the mutation type,

- If the mutation affects the number of the chromosomes (haploidy, polyploidy, aneuploidy)

- If the mutation affects the chromosome structure.

Among the mutations that affect the structure of the chromosome, we can mention,

The ones affecting the number of genes

- Deletion ⇒ Occurs a loss of genes

- Duplication ⇒ The number of genes increases

The ones affecting the sequence of genes

- Inversion ⇒ genes order or sequence is inverted

- Translocation ⇒ genes are interchanged between chromosomes

In the exposed example,

A) Translocation

There was an interchange of genes between the two involved chromosomes.

One of them started with genes ABC and the other one with genes DE. After the interchage one of them ended with genes AC and the other one with genes DBC.

B) Deletion

The chromosome lost the A gene, which was deleted from the original sequence.

C) Inversion

The original sequence in this chromosome was ABC, and after the inversion the gene order was CBA.

D) Duplication

The original sequence was ABC, and after the duplication event, genes A and B got duplicated and the new sequence was ABABC.

Ratling [72]

The right matches are:

Ventricular fibrillation ==> Loss of consciousness and death

Two successive PVC's ==> Often asymptomatic

Bizarre ECG waves ==> Defibrillation is needed .

Ventricular fibrillation is a violent and disordered contraction of muscle fibers, especially the heart muscle, in the ventricles. This systematically leads to loss of consciousness or death.

Defibrillation is a treatment by electrical shock of abnormal contractions of the heart fibers, in order to restore a normal heart rhythm.

Premature contraction of the heart alters the normal heart rhythm but is clinically undetectable or expressed as palpitations.

During the phase of the cardiac cycle called , the entire heart is relaxed and blood flows into all four chambers. 2. during the

Scilla [17]

1. The right answer is Diastole.

The diastole is the period during which the heart relaxes after contracting. We talk about ventricular diastole when the ventricles relax, and atrial or atrial diastole when the atria relax. At rest, the diastole time of the heart is about 0.49 seconds.

2. The right answer is Systole.

Systole is the contraction phase of the heart, where the blood is expelled to the cardiovascular system.

The pressure during systole is the highest number the doctor indicates when measuring blood pressure.

During systole, the cardiac ventricles, filled during diastole, contract. The systole has three phases and lasts about 0.27 seconds.

3. The right answer is atrioventricular valves.

There are two valves that separate the ventricles of the atria. They are called atrioventricular valves. On the right side is the tricuspid valve, and on the left side is the mitral valve.

Each of these valves is composed of a fibrous ring of the cardiac skeleton, leaflets, ropes and muscle pillars found in their respective ventricles.

4. The right answer is heart murmur.

Heart murmurs or heart murmurs are characterized by "unusual" noises heard during a stethoscope auscultation during the heartbeat. They are produced by turbulence of the blood flow to the heart and can be caused by various pathologies.

Heart murmurs may be congenital, that is, present at birth, or may develop later in life. All may be concerned: children, adolescents, adults and the elderly.

5. The right answer is sinoatrial node.

The sinoatrial node is a small knot of barely visible tissue located on the posterior wall of the right atrium. This tiny region controls all the regulation mechanism of the heartbeat. The pulses start normally in the sino-atrial node. This generates a brief, low-intensity electric pulse, approximately 72 times per minute, in an adult at rest. From there, the impulse propagates along the tissue blades that form the two atria, exciting the muscle fibers in its path, which causes the contraction of the atria and the passage of the blood they contain in the empty ventricles.

6. The right answer is atrioventricular node.

The atrioventricular or atrioventricular (or Aschoff-Tawara) node is a heart structure made of cardionector tissue. It transmits the muscular contraction impulse between the atria and the ventricles via the bundle of His.

The atrioventricular node is located in the atrioventricular septum at the Koch Triangle, a structure visible in the right atrium and delimited by the septal valve of the tricuspid valve, the coronary sinus and the Todaro tendon. It is in continuity with the bundle of His at the level of the central fibrous body of the heart. It is most often vascularized by a branch of the right coronary artery.

7. The right answer is electrocardiogram.

An electrocardiogram or ECG is a medical examination in cardiology to record heart activity. It is based on the measurement of electrical currents passing through the organ at each of its contractions. With the ECG, a doctor can determine whether the electrical activity thus observed is normal or irregular.
