Why are most mutations in cancer cells called 'passengers.'?
gavmur [86]

What allows cancer live at high mutation rate? Which mutations make it weaker? Is there a way to exploit its natural mechanisms to make it less evolvable? Harvard Associate Professor, Leonid Mirny, on clinical phenomena we can now explain using the balance between ‘drivers’ and ‘passengers’.

Cancer is an evolutionary process. There are accumulations of mutations and then there is selection from mutations that make cells more malignant, more like cancer cells. Mutations come at random.

In a certain population of birds, 16 percent of the population have grey feathers and 84 percent have red feathers. If grey feat
Dima020 [189]

If grey feathers is a recessive trait, then 72.8% of the population is heterozygous for this trait.

Explanation:

The concept used here is of Hardy Weinberg principle, p^{2} + q^{2} +2pq =1

The homozygous dominant genotypeis represented as p^{2} = 84

Red = dominant

The homozygous recessive genotype trait is represented as q^{2} = 16

grey = recessive

2pq = heterozygous individual

Thus for dominant homozygous the alleles are given as

p= \sqrt{84}

  = 9.1

q = \sqrt{16}

  = 4

for heterozygous individual 2pq

2 x 9.1 x 4

= 72.8

72.8% population is heterozygous for the trait.
