MariettaO [177]3 years ago

<span>Proto-oncogenes are genes that normally help cells grow. When a proto-oncogenemutates (changes) or there are too many copies of it, it becomes a "bad" gene thatcan become permanently turned on or activated when it is not supposed to be. When this happens, the cell grows out of control, which can lead to cancer.....Is this what you need ?</span>

Yes if this type of gene becomes mutated  it can turn into to a cancerous tumor.

If a cell was observed under the microscope and found to have a rigid cell wall and be green in color that cell is most likely a
sergejj [24]

Answer:

A plant cell is your answer

Explanation:

prosses of elimination

animal cell - dose not have a cell wall

algae cell - its cell wall has more of a bubblelike appearance

bacterium cell - cell wall is not rigid, and color can vary it has more of a lose thread type look.

plant cell - has a green cell wall that is rigid <--- this is your answer

"In the snake experiment, what was the basis for the hypothesis that mimic species benefit from looking" like unrelated harmful
Fantom [35]

Answer:

The contrast in coloration was pivotal to determine if predators attack snakes based on their colors.

It was for studying MIMICRY in snakes.

Assuming all the.snakes were the same the number of attacks will not indicate anything about the effect of the colored rings.

This question on the need for provision of a controlled experiment during experimental investigation. Thus in order to test the effect of a particular condition,another contrasting condition must be provided to determine if the condition under investigation is the actual results obtaned or the influence of other factors in the environment or in the experiment.

The change in the color of the ring is the VARIABLE .In the artificial snake the variable is the presence of this coloed rings against its absence in this snake.

since it changes in the artificial snake

Mammals are diphyodont which refers to the fact that
natulia [17]

The correct answer is D. They have two successive sets of teeth including milk teeth and permanent adult teeth

Explanation:

In biology, a diphyodont is an animal that has two different sets of teeth, this often means the animal has a set of baby teeth that are later replaced by permanent teeth, this occurs in most mammals including humans. Additionally, diphyodont differ from other types of animals that have either only one set of teeth (monophyodonts), for example, toothed whales or change their teeth permanently (polyphyodont), for example, crocodiles. Thus, mammals are diphyodont because "they have two successive sets of teeth including milk teeth and permanent adult teeth".

Two species of tree frogs that live sympatrically in the northeastern United States differ in ploidy: Hyla chrysoscelis is diplo
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is - polyploidy.

Explanation:

Speciation can be two types allopatric and sympatric speciation. Sympatric speciation is the process of speciation is developing the new species that diverged from the common ancestral species while the ancestral and developed species both can share the same place or geological area. The main cause of such speciation is due to the change in their genetic level more than environmental conditions.

In this case, the frog's species show differences in their ploidy level as well as their mating call but polyploidy is the most likely the difference that evolved first rather than females call for mating.

Thus, the correct answer is - polyploidy.
