PROTO-ONCOGENES are corresponding normal cellular genes to an oncogene that is responsible for normal cell growth and division.
An oncogene refers to a gene that is capable of causing cancer due to damage to the DNA molecule either by virus or other DNA damaging agents. A proto oncogene is the normal version of the gene while an oncogene is the abnormal version of the concerned gene.

<span>A gene that code for proteins and responsible for normal cell growth and division is called proto-oncogenes. Mutations in proto-oncogenes can lead to an increase in protein expression or produce too many copies of it and become oncogene that can contribute to cancer cells.  Furthermore, </span>proto-oncogenes<span> have many various roles in the cell. Some of them provide signals that lead to cell division and others regulate programmed cell death.</span>

What are constants or controlling variables in an experiment? What would be some constants from the experiment mentioned above?
lawyer [7]

Essentially, a control variable is what is kept the same throughout the experiment, and it is not of primary concern in the experimental outcome. Any change in a control variable in an experiment would invalidate the correlation of dependent variables (DV) to the independent variable (IV), thus skewing the results.

The plants that were allowed to self pollinate were the F1 plants.

The plants that are true breeding are P generation plants.

The plants where there were 3times as many tall plants as short plants are in F2 generation.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

This question is based on the Mendel’s Experiment. Sir Gregor Johann Mendel was the father of genetics who experimented on garden pea plants <em>Pisum</em> <em>sativum</em> to see whether the characters got mixed or not and to know the real cause behind different traits of same character in plants.

He took the pure homozygous tall and short plants separately which he called as parental generation or P generation. These plants were homozygous, hence pure breeding.

As these plants were crossed between themselves, then the F1 generation showed all tall plants. This is because of the heterozygous plants which showed character of dominant trait. These plants were allowed to self pollinate.

As a result of self pollination of the F1 plants, the F2 plants were 75% tall in number whereas the other 25% short, which gave the phenotypic ratio of 3:1.

Answer:

b. making an observation and asking a question

Explanation:

In scientific method there need to be a situation to be study. In this description, the scientist first observed that in a certain region there is some kind of trees and the other variable is the great amount of deer.

After making different observations, and some research of other areas similar to the one that is study, she is asking what is the relation among the animals and the trees.

The next step will be to formulate a hypothesis using all the data and the two variables that she observed.
