Why is a longitudinal study better than a cross-sectional study for examining how many years cancer survivors stay in remission?

<span>A cross-sectional study examines all of the participants at one time. So for a cross-sectional study of cancer survivors, we would gather some sample of former patients and find out how long they have been in remission.

The problem with that cross-sectional design is we would be missing the people whose cancer had returned and caused them to die before our experiment started; we would have introduced a problem called "survivor bias" by only counting people who were STILL in remission and still alive.

A better experiment will use a longitudinal design of enrolling people whose cancer has just gone into remission, and following them to see how long they stay healthy.</span>

Answer:

Template strand = complementary strand

GCA AG = CGT TC

TTA CG = AAT GC

GAT AC = CTA TG

CGG AT = GCC TA

DNA strand = mRNA strand

CGA TT = GCU AA

GCT TA = CGA AU

GCA TC = CGU AG

TTC AT = AAG UA

It is more important for DNA replication to be exact than transcription or translation because any error that occurs during DNA replication if not repaired will become permanent and will be transferred to the next generation.

Explanation: In DNA base pairing, G pairs with C and T pairs with A. But in RNA base pairing, G pairs with C and U pairs with A. DNA contains four bases G, C, T and A while RNA contains four bases G, C, A and U.
