True or false: If we extracted DNA from thyroid and neural tissues, we would find the CALCA gene in both types of cells.
Elanso [62]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The calcitonin/calcitonin gene-related peptide (CALCA) gene is used to encode different peptide sequences (i.e., calcitonin hormone, calcitonin-related peptides and katacalcin) through alternative RNA splicing. These peptides have different functions. Calcitonin is a hormone mainly produced by cells of the thyroid gland, which is involved in the control of levels of calcium and phosphate in the blood. Moreover, katacalcin is a peptide synthesized from the same precursor of calcitonin (and therefore also mainly produced by cells of the thyroid gland), which is implicated in both calcium regulation and skeletal maintenance. Finally, the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a peptide mainly produced by sensory nerves (type Aδ fibers ), which is involved in pain pathways. The CALCA gene has attracted considerable attention from geneticists because it is specifically expressed in neuroendocrine tissues in normal conditions and abnormally induced in septic conditions (i.e., during the body's extreme response to an infection).

What steps are required for a pathogen to infect a novel host species?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Steps are required for a pathogen to infect a novel host species.

  • A pathogen is defined as an organism causing disease to its host, with the severity of the disease symptoms referred to as virulence.
  • The pathogens can be viruses or bacteria. If the host is humans then these pathogens can enter through nose, sputum, yes or any cut wounds.
  • After entering the host species, the pathogens ejects its genome into the cell of the host for its multiplication. Such type of organisms require the machinery of the host to multiply.
  • The pathogens after multiplying, increases in number and damages tissues and organs of the host thereby causing diseases.
