Biology

Answer:

Hey, here is your answer mate

Explanation:

These mutations may eventually lead to cancer, particularly mutations in tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes. Mutations in DNA repair genes may be inherited or acquired. Lynch syndrome is an example of the inherited kind. BRCA1, BRCA2, and p53 mutations and their associated syndromes are also inherited.

Can someone help me with facts about rainforests? I have to do a project and I'm stumped.
jeka57 [31]
Rainforest cover only 2 % of the total surface area of the Earth but in spite of that about 50 % of plants and animals that live on the Earth live there.

By definition rainforests are forests that recieve high amounts of rainfall so you can actually find rainforests in Alaska for example (other examples: Canada, Asia, Africa, Latin and South-America)

About 1/4 of natural medicines are found in rainforests. 70 % or more of the plants that are used to treat cancer are found only in tropical rainforest on the planet.

Trees in tropical rainforests are so dense that it takes approximately 10 min for the rainfall to reach the ground from canopy.

Mammals are the only animals that have hair. Would you consider the presence of hair in mammals to be an ancestral or derived tr
Fantom [35]

Answer:

derived trait

Explanation:

An ancestral (or primitive) trait/character is a feature inherited from the common ancestor of the species/group of interest, while derived traits are those that were absent in the last common ancestor of the group of interest. For example, considering mammals as the target group, the presence of hair is a shared derived trait relative to other vertebrates, i.e., amphibians, reptiles and birds. However, this trait (hair) is ancestral for humans since the genetically closest species to humans (e.g., chimpanzees), also have hair, and they have inherited this trait from a common ancestor.
