Answer:

mediante mutaciones en el ADN  

Explanation:

El desastre ecológico de Chernóbil estuvo asociado a la liberación de importantes cantidades de radiación en forma de radioisótopos hacia la atmósfera, como producto de la explosión de un reactor que contenía toneladas de uranio radiactivo. La exposición a este tipo de radiación aumenta las probabilidades de sufrir mutaciones en la molécula de ADN. Dicho de otro modo, la radiación incrementa las chances de sufrir cambios en el material genético hereditario. Las mutaciones generalmente son corregidas por los mecanismos de reparación del ADN; sin embargo, existen ocasiones donde las mutaciones no son reparadas. Por otro lado, las mutaciones a menudo tienen efectos deletéreos y por lo tanto están asociadas a enfermedades, ya que los cambios en la secuencia genética provocan consecuentemente también cambios en las proteínas codificadas por estos genes. Por ejemplo, las mutaciones sufridas por genes supresores de tumores se encuentran asociadas a la aparición de células cancerosas por el mal funcionamiento de dichos genes. El efecto de la mutación depende del tipo celular que sufre la mutación: aunque las mutaciones sufridas por células somáticas pueden afectar la salud, estos tipos de mutaciones no son heredadas (simplemente porque las células somáticas no se heredan), mientras que las mutaciones sufridas por células germinales, es decir, en las células encargadas de la formación de gametos, pueden ser transmitidas a la descendencia.

How does attention to overall wellness help manage stress
seraphim [82]

Answer: Here are all the ways mindfulness can help you manage stress: Nine Ways Mindfulness Helps with Stress. You become more aware of your thoughts. You can then step back from them and not take them so literally. That way, your stress response is not initiated in the first place. You don’t immediately react to a situation. Instead, you have a moment to pause and then use your “wise mind” to come up with the best solution.

Why is death by predators more natural or 'right' then death by starvation?
Morgarella [4.7K]
Well because death by starvation would be far more agonizing than death by predators. Starving to death would last longer and the death would be more excruciating.
