If a cell loses control of gene expression, what happens?

Biology
1 answer:
kipiarov [429]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Abnormal, unhealthy cells develop

Explanation:

Gene expression is the process through which genes are turned on through transcription, and to some extent through the translation of the mRNA.

Gene expression is highly regulated to ensure the cell can create the correct combination of proteins to carry out it's tasks. If gene expression is out of control, the mRNAs that are transcribed in the cell are not properly regulated, and therefore the proteins in the cell are not regulated. Since proteins carry out essentially every function in the cell, the cell becomes unhealthy, and incorrectly uses its resources.

Accurate control of gene expression also ensures that the cell can perform specialized functions, it is what makes a heart cell distinct from a brain cell, for example. Therefore, if it is out of control, cells will not be specialized correctly.

What protein (purine)-rich food should be limited to prevent a reoccurrence of uric acid kidney stones? what protein (purine)-ri
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Eggs

Explanation:

Uric acid stones are one of the four types of kidney stones which are formed due to the high amount of uric acid in the human body.

When the concentration of the uric acid increases in the urine due to which urine becomes acidic, the uric acid gets stored in the urinary pathway in the form of stones.

To remove the uric acid kidney-stones, the food rich in purines must be avoided like meat, eggs and green vegetables like mustard, spinach, and whole grains are suggested.

Thus, the egg is the correct answer.
