Umnica [9.8K]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Since it is a recessive gene, tumor suppressor genes required the inactivation of both alleles, this is usually accomplished by the mutation of one allele and a targeted homozygous deletion of the second allele. This leads to an effective inactivation of the suppressor genes with the mutations acting a a dominant negatives. This way, patients are put at a higher risk of developing cancer

Write a short description of the life cycle of a flowering plan<br><br>​
sammy [17]

Answer:

Flowering plants begin as seeds. These seeds store energy and food within them long enough to reach the right environment and germinate. Germination is the development of a plant, growing from a seed into a seedling. Seedlings are the second stage of a flowering plant's life. This is when their roots begin to form and photosynthesis can begin. Next comes the growth period. After the seedling is planted, it requires a lot of food and energy as more leaves begin to emerge. The next stage of a flowering plant's life is the flowering stage itself. This is when buds and flowers begin to sprout. It enters the reproductive stage and pollination begins, allowing more seeds to be sown.

Which factor when doubled would produce the greatest change in the centripetal force?
yaroslaw [1]
Let us consider the centripetal force equation,  
centripetal force F = mv² / r  
 f= force
 v= velocity
 m= mass
 r= radius.
 
 in all the factors only velocity has the power of 2. so when you double the velocity then it will become square of that. 
 if v= 2v , F = m4v² / r 
 so velocity is doubled it would produce the greatest change in the centripetal force.
