The answer is; saturated soil turns into liquid that can't support buildings


Soil liquefaction occurs mainly in soils saturated, or partially saturated, with water such as in wetlands. During an earthquake, the waves pass through the soil and make it behave like a wave in a fluid. This causes the soil to loosen temporarily and become weak. The foundation of buildings in the soil fail and the structures collapse.

What is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncogenes?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Oncogenes result from a mutation in  proto-oncogenes.

Explanation:

  • Protooncogenes control the growth and division of cells.
  • The proteins encoded by proto-oncogenes include growth factors, growth factor receptors, transcription factors and signal transducers.
  • They contribute to the transformation process by driving cell proliferation or reducing sensitivity to cell death.
  • Several types of genetic and epigenetic changes convert these proto-oncogenes to oncogenes.
  • Oncogenes arise due to the changes that increases the expression of proto-oncogenes .
  • Oncogenes are one of the causes of cancers.

A proto-oncogenes can turn into oncogene by following ways:

  • A point mutation  such as deletion, insertion and substitution  in the proto-oncogene can lead to formation of oncogenes.
  • Chromosomal translocation may result in activation of proto-oncogene as seen in Burkitt's lymphoma.
  • Insertion of a mobile genetic material such as retrovirus changes the gene expression, but leaves their coding sequence intact.
  • Activation of proto-oncogene can also occur from reduplication and amplification of DNA sequence.
