Sergio [31]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Somatic mutations : option (A) and option (D).

Inherited mutations : option (B) and option (C).

Explanation:

Mutations are permanent changes in the genetic material due to alterations in DNA sequence. Mutations may be somatic or inherited (or germline).

Somatic mutations are those mutations that arise in somatic or normal body cells and cannot transfer from parents to their offspring. As skins cells and lung cells are somatic cells, option (A) and (D) represent somatic mutations.

Inherited mutations are those mutations that arise in sex cells (gamete forming cell) and transfer from parents to their offspring due to transfer as these cells form mutated gametes. As egg cells and sperms cells are sex cells, option (B) and (C) represent inherited mutations.

​the symptoms of ____ are caused by progressive demyelination of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. ​multiple sclerosis ​
nika2105 [10]

The correct answer is multiple sclerosis.

The MS or multiple sclerosis refers to a demyelinating disorder in which the insulating envelopes of the nervous tissues in the spinal cord and the brain get destructed.

This destruction disturbs the tendency of the components of the nervous system to interact, leading to an array of symptoms and signs, involving mental, physical, and on certain occasions psychiatric issues.
