Various observations suggest that V(D)J recombination, which is an essential process for the maintenance of the vertebrate immun

e system, was evolutionarily derived from DNA transpositional recombination. Which of the following comparisons between V(D)J and DNA transpositional recombination is NOT true?
A. V(D)J recombination is similar to the replicative transpositional mechanism.
B. Excision of genes in V(D)J involves the formation of a DNA-hairpin intermediate similar to that seen in the Hermes transposon pathway.
C. The V(D)J recombinase protein RAG1 is likely homologous with DDE transposases.
D.Recombination signal sequences are functionally similar to terminal inverted repeats.
E. V(D)J recombination is similar to the replicative transpositional mechanism.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A. "V(D)J recombination is similar to the replicative transpositional mechanism".

Explanation:

V(D)J recombination and the replicative transpositional mechanism are very different biological processes. V(D)J recombination is an unique mechanism that takes place by somatic recombination and results in the highly diverse repertoire of antibodies. On the other hand, the replicative transpositional mechanism takes place when a transposable element is duplicated during replication.

Theoretically, how might researchers disrupt signal transduction pathways as possible treatments for cancer?
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

d. disrupt the function of protein kinases involved in cell cycle regulation.

Explanation:

Protein kinases which are useful in cell cycles have major roles in the formation of tumors. So many of these protein kinases go through mutations. Cell cycles would be unable to be stoped and tumor would keep increasing.

A lot of receptors are G protein coupled. So it is going to be really helpful to alter and make G protein receptors to be inactive. Most if these kinases go through means of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. Targeting these would cause disruption in signal transduction in cells with cancer

PLS HELP!!!!
zzz [600]

Explanation:

Frog undergoes a complete metamorphosis. It includes the egg, tadpole, froglet and then adult frog stages. In complete metamorphosis the hatchling does not resemble the parent and changes as it grows to be an adult.

During metamorphosis the tadpole will develop back legs first, then front legs.  Around 6 weeks of life the mouth starts to widen.  Sometime around 10 weeks the froglet’s, as it is now called, eyes start to bulge out and the tail begins to shrink and eventually disappear.  When the lungs finish developing the froglet makes it’s way onto the land and, Ta-da! It’s a frog!

Hope this helps!
