ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

spiders

Explanation:

While humans and many other species have red blood, due to the iron in their hemoglobin, other animals have different colored blood.

Some animals, such as the sea cucumbers, even have yellow blood.

Cell cycle checkpoints are an important feature of a dividing cell to reduce errors that can occur in various stages of the cell
saveliy_v [14]

Loss of Rb, an important part of the G1-S transition checkpoint, can result in uncontrolled cell cycle progression and cancer. All of the following would mimic loss of Rb except constitutively active Ras GTPase activating protein. Correct answer: letter E.

Constitutively active Ras GTPase activating protein would not mimic loss of Rb, because it would not directly result in uncontrolled cell cycle progression.

<h3>What is Retinoblastoma (RB)?</h3>

Rb is an important tumor suppressor protein that works to inhibit cell cycle progression by preventing the activation of E2F transcription factors. Constitutively active Ras GTPase activating protein would not directly interfere with the Rb-E2F pathway, which is necessary for uncontrolled cell cycle progression and cancer.

The weather is often cloudy along a stationary front, and rain or snow often falls, especially if the front is in an area of low atmospheric pressure.
