Answer:

P⁵³ gene called as tumor suppressor gene is responsible for apoptosis.

Explanation:

The protein which encodes the gene belongs to a family of protein that have 3 members P⁵³,P⁶³ and P⁷³.

P⁵³ is known as tumor suppressor protein that is responsible for apoptosis of cells.

This protein is encoded by TP53 gene.This is important and play a crucial role in cell cycle an thus functions as tumor suppressor which involved in preventing  cancer.Thus it is called called as "Guardian angel gene".

It not only function as anti cancer but also participate a crucial role in apoptosis,genomic stability and inhibition of angiogenesis.

It can also activate certain proteins that are which helps in DNA repair process.

Angiosperms and life on land Many aspects of the angiosperm life cycle make flowering plants particularly well-suited to life on
vova2212 [387]
<h2>Angiosperms </h2>

Explanation:

Angiosperms are the most diverse group of plants, some statements which reflect angiosperm adaptations to life on land:

  • Flowers attract animal pollinators carrying pollen from other plants of the same species
  • Fruits aid in the dispersal of seeds by wind or by animals that carry or eat the fruits
  • In many angiosperms, the male gametophyte contained in a pollen grain can be transported many miles away by wind or animal pollinators
  • Floral parts of the sporophyte protect the reduced female gametophyte from drying out and from UV radiation
  • Seeds protect and nourish plant embryos, and fruits protect the seeds
  • Seeds enable plant embryos to be dispersed long distances from the parent plant via wind or animals

1. Describe what a growth factor is and<br> how it influences the cell cycle.
igomit [66]

Growth factors are hormones, proteins, or steroid molecules that regulate many cellular functions. They can stimulate the cell division by giving the signal to the cell to progress in the cell cycle.  

<u>Explanation</u>:  

Growth factors are naturally produced within the body and travels through the body to bind to their receptors present on their target cells. These growth factors are capable of signalling the cell to divide, proliferate, or heel. Their main aim is to signal or tell other cell when to do and what to do. Due to the binding with the receptors the growth factors activates specific genes.
