Why two things can happen if a cell has DNA that is so damaged it cannot be repaired

1 answer:

7 0

In contrast to DNA damage, a mutation is a change in the base sequence of the DNA. A mutation cannot be recognized by enzymes once the base change is present in both DNA strands, and thus a mutation cannot be repaired. At the cellular level, mutations can cause alterations in protein function and regulation

Which statement best explains why muscle cells and skin cells do not look and act the same

vichka [17]

Because they are made to perform two different functions. Cells are part of tissues that are part of organs that perform a certain function. For example, your bone cells are made to make blood cells, so they wouldn’t be in your lungs as well.

A mixture of the amino acids leucine, glutamate, and arginine, is added to a cation exchange column at neutral ph. in what order

natulia [17]

Cation-exchange chromatography is used when the molecule of interest is positively charged, the stationary phase is negatively charged and positively charged molecules are loaded to be attracted to it. So, the amino acids with negative charge will elute the first. Glutamate, leucin, arginine is the order of elution because of their pI values ~3, ~6 ~10.
