Answer:

A very small number of bone cancers (especially osteosarcomas) appear to be hereditary and are caused by defects (mutations) in certain genes. Retinoblastoma is a rare eye cancer in children that can be hereditary. The inherited form of retinoblastoma is caused by a mutation (abnormal copy) of the RB1 gene. Those with this mutation also have an increased risk of developing bone or soft tissue sarcomas. Also, if radiation therapy is used to treat the retinoblastoma, the risk of osteosarcoma in the bones around the eye is even higher. Finally, there are families with several members who have developed osteosarcoma without inherited changes in any of the known genes. The gene defects that may cause cancers in these families haven’t been discovered yet.

They will most likely survive becuase stage one of bone cancer is the most treatable stage.

Answer: Option A.

Transverse tubules rapidly move the action potential to the interior of the muscle potential.

Explanation:

Transverse tubules are cylindrical pockets found in the plasma membrane of muscle cells. They are formed from phospholipid bilayer or sarcolemma of skeletal or cardiac muscle cells. They have membrane that have large concentration of ion channels,transporters and pump. They permit action potention into the cell and also to a particular structure sarcuplasmic reticulum.

Why are Venus and Mercury the only plants without the moons?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Venus and Mercury are the only planets in our solar system that do not have moons. Venus and Mercury have a gravitational pull that is weaker than the gravitational pull of the Sun, so they wouldn't be able to hold onto their own moon.
