How do crossovers affect populations

Biology
1 answer:
Kitty [74]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:The visible crossovers are called chiasmata. The large-scale effect of crossover is to spread genetic variations within a population, as well as genetic basis for the selection of the most adaptable phenotypes. The crossover value depends on the mutual distance of the genetic loci observed.

Explanation:

Cyclins are proteins that regulate the progression through the cell cycle, i.e., the transition of G1 to S phase. It is well known that high cyclin expression may lead to cell proliferation states, which is closely associated with cancer progression. Moreover, the blockage of cyclins may have an anti-carcinogenic effect by inhibiting the progression through the cell cycle. MAP kinases are serine/threonine kinases that regulate the progression through the cell cycle by phosphorylating a variety of substrates during cell proliferation. In consequence, phosphatases that inactivate MAPK kinases (i.e., by dephosphorylation) may have an anticarcinogenic effect. The p53 is a tumor suppressor protein involved in diverse cellular processes including DNA repair, cycle arrest and programmed cell death. This protein (p53) is activated by phosphorylation at target residues and phosphatases inactivate it, thereby the blockage of its degradation may have an anticarcinogenic effect. Oncogene activation (i.e., the expression of oncogenes), may alter diverse cellular processes including DNA replication, and thereby may lead to cancer development. The G-protein α subunit is a GTPase that hydrolyses GTP and thus has a major role in controlling the kinetics of the G-protein signaling cascade. Platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFR) are kinase receptors that play roles in regulating cellular differentiation, cell proliferation and cell growth. PDGFR receptors are present on the surface of normal cells, however, it has been shown that mutations of the PDGFR genes that lead to their high expression lead to uncontrolled cell growth and consequently cause cancer (i.e., by increasing PDGF signaling).

When do bacteria need genetic information?
e-lub [12.9K]

Bacteria have either DNA or RNA as genetic material. This genetic material must be able to replicate efficiently and accurately in order to make sure that offspring inherit the same genotype as the parent organism. This is possible because of genetic information.

The ________ communicates with the lower bladder to enable excretion of urine from the body.
Tems11 [23]

The <u>urethra</u> is an organ which communicates with the lower bladder in order to enable excretion of urine from the body of a living organism.

<h3>What is an excretory system?</h3>

An excretory system refers to a living system that is saddled with the responsibility of removing waste products from the body of a living organism, so as to prevent damage to the body and help maintain homeostasis.

Based on scientific information, the <u>urethra</u> is an organ which communicates with the lower bladder in order to enable excretion of urine from the body of a living organism.
