What type of mutation has occurred in figure 12-3?
Answer= substitution
ANSWER: CANCER DEVELOPMENT
EXPLANATION:
Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are genes that regulates the cell cycle of a cell (i.e the cell division and replication). In other words, TSGs encodes protein that act as control or regulator of cell growth.
However, when there is an alteration in the genetic sequence (mutation) of the TSGs, this make the cell not to respond to cues that had been regulating it growth.
Thus, when cell growth is not regulated, it results to runaway or abnormal cell growth (i.e multiple folds cell division and replication), in other word referred to as “cancer”.
Interspecific competition
A type of competition in which organisms belong to different species compete with each others for same resources.
Example
Leopard and lion.
intraspecific competition
A type of competition in which organism belong to same species compete with each others for same resources.
Example
birds for breeding or shelter compete with each others
<span>In the skeletal muscle cells of vertebrates, as many as 38 molecules of ATP are produced from one molecule of glucose. This is less than might be expected, because electrons from NADH produced during glycolysis must be shuttled through the inner mitochondrial membrane at a cost.
</span>The energy of the electrons can be used to make ATP and in eukaryotes, glycolysis occurs in the <span>cytosol, outside mitochondria. </span>
