Answer:
If one wants to estimate the cost of living of an individual, then the factors such as salary, age, marital status, etc. are independent variables, while the cost of living of a person is highly dependent on such factors. Therefore, they are designated as the dependent variable.
Answer:
The answer is A.
Explanation:
To test if the selenium from the mine has an effect on the fish living in the lake which i assume is close to the mine, testing the tissue of the fish from that lake and comparing it to the selenium levels of the fish from a nearby lake would be a testable hypothesis because there is a comparable aspect and there should be a difference in the numbers between the fish from the two lakes because of their distance to the mine.
I hope this answer helps.
if the hypothesis is rejected, it may not need to be displayed
Answer:
tumor suppressor gene
Explanation:
A tumor suppressor gene is capable of modulating cellular processes during cell division and/or replication, thereby avoiding uncontrolled cell proliferation and tumor development. For example, the p53 gene is a tumor suppressor gene that encodes a protein (p53) which is well known to regulate critical cellular processes such as, for example, cell cycle arrest and programmed cell death (apoptosis). Moreover, breast cancer genes BRCA1 and BRCA2 are tumor suppressor genes that regulate the repair of damaged DNA through the Homologous recombination (HR) pathway. In consequence, mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes can increase the risk of developing breast cancer.
