What are the three advantages of using conceptual models?

1 answer:

3 0

The conceptual model provides a concept of how the components of an atom are arranged, implying a similarity of the forces acting between those components.

It is important to note that the conceptual model is not necessarily correct or accurate. It simply provides a model which forms the basis for the discussion of the concepts involved.

Science is all about the discussion -- with the expressed aim of improving the conceptual model to the point that it is self-consistent and consistent with the existing body of accepted knowledge. [The hardest part is knowing when and how to question the body of accepted knowledge.]

2) Photosynthesis uses energy, CO2, and water to make energy and releases oxygen. Cellular respiration uses glucose molecules and oxygen to make energy, and releases CO2 and water.

3) Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria, and photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts.

Explain its normal role and why scientists would regard it as the "guardian of the genome."

Burka [1]

The gene p53, also called the guardian of the genome is located on the 17th chromosome in human genomes.
It was given this alternative name because it has a role in response to damage of DNA molecule and in preventing cancer.
The protein product of this gene stops the replication of damaged DNA, activates proteins that repair the DNA damage and if the reparation proteins fail to fix the damage it activates the process of apoptosis or so-called cell death in order to prevent the damaged cell to proliferate and potentially develop into a tumor.
