Answer: Option E
Maintaining very long telomeres promotes cancer cell formation.
Explanation:
Telomere refers to either of the sequences of DNA at each end of a eukaryotic chromosome.
Usually, in eukaryote chromosome replication, telomeres are not replicated.
Hence, they are usually lost resulting in the shortening of the telomere ends after repeated cycle of cell division. This also leads to cell aging and stoppage of cell division.
The shortening of telomere combined with stoppage of cell division, and cell aging initiation prevent CANCER, which thrives on lengthy telomeres
Answer:
A factor of an experiment is a controlled independent variable; a variable whose levels are set by the experimenter. A factor is a general type or category of treatments. Different treatments constitute different levels of a factor
An experiment has several types of variables, including a control variable (sometimes called a controlled variable). ... A control variable is another factor in an experiment; it must be held constant. In the plant growth experiment, this may be factors like water and fertilizer levels.
Explanation:
Answer:
Deletion of two nucleotides.
Explanation:
Every amino acid coded by 3 nucleotides.
12:3=4 (amino acids)
6:3=2 (2 amino acids)
3:3=1 (1 amino acid)
After all of these mutations sequence amino acids change, but after continues stay the same.
Only deletion of 2 nucleotides will completely altered all amino acids encoded without mutation.

AP Biology Question:
Scientists are testing substance L to determine how it enters mammalian cells in a culture. The cells maintain a 120 millimolar (mM) intracellular concentration of substance L . The scientists determined the rate of entry of substance L into the cells at various external concentrations of substance L (10 to 100 mM) in culture medium (Table 1).
