Although it is noncancerous, if it is applying pressure to any vitals such as the blood vessels or nerves, it causes an obstruction. Thus ending up having to require treatment occasionally but not in all cases. It is considered a "good" tumor since it does not cause any pain or any problems when it doesn't apply pressure.

Malignant Tumor:

A Malignant Tumor is known as cancerous, or just cancer. These can be spread around the affected area of tissue or throughout the body. It is uncontrollably spread and disease ridden tumor that destroy the body tissue of the person. If this moves into the bloodstream, it can lead up to spreading within the lymph nodes, causing even more damage.

discuss the genetic diagram to show a cross between a man heterozygous for brown eyes (Bb) and a woman with blue eyes (bb)
grigory [225]
You should use a Punnett Square for this question
The Punnett square predicts the offspring of two parents (two alleles). In this case you have brown eyes (Bb) and blue eyes (bb)
In the four boxes you should have Bb, Bb, bb and bb (50% chance of offspring with blue eyes and 50% chance of offspring with brown eyes).
The genotypes ratio will be 2Bb:2bb
And the phenotypic ratio will be 2 Brown : 2 Blue
