Biology
2 answers:
klio [65]3 years ago

Answer:

Skin cancer is the uncontrolled growth of skin cells.  

Explanation:

They grow and divide without stopping, and they can spread to other places in your body.

Skin cancer is frequently caused by exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun or from tanning beds.

The UV light can cause mutations in your skin’s DNA so it can’t control skin cell growth. The result is often skin cancer.

Answer:

Skin cancer refers to the abnormal activity of skin cells associated with carcinogenesis

Explanation:

This disease is associated with the DNA damage (mutations) often caused by  the irrational exposition to UV sun rays that trigger DNA mutations capable of both inactivating tumor suppresor genes and activating oncogenes

Mitosis can occur in both haploid and diploid cells, but meiosis cannot occur in haploid cells. Why not?.
allochka39001 [22]

Mitosis can occur in both haploid and diploid cells because it is equational division where the number of chromosomes remain the same after division. But meiosis cannot happen in haploid cells because it is reductional division and haploid cells do not have any extra copy of chromosomes to be halved.

Mitosis is the cell division where the number of chromosomes do not change after cell division. It usually happens in the somatic cells of the body. Cancer cells also undergo mitosis

Meiosis is the cell division where the number of chromosomes are halved after cell division. The process of meiosis occurs in two phases: meiosis I and meiosis II. The germ cells of the body undergo meiosis.

Each ABO blood group is associated with the presence/absence of RBC antigens and the presence/absence of antibodies in the plasm
harina [27]

Answer:

a. Type O blood - No A or B antigens on RBCs-Anti-A antibodies in plasma-Anti-B antibodies in plasma

b. Type A blood - A antigen on RBCs- Anti-B antibodies in plasma

c. Type B blood - B antigen on RBCs- Anti-A antibodies in plasma

d. Type AB blood - A antigen on RBCs- B antigen on RBCs- Neither anti-A or anti-B in plasma

Explanation:

ABO blood grouping system represents multiple allelism which was discovered in humans by Karl Landsteiner. The blood group is determined by the presence or absence of A & B antigens and antibodies.

The 4 blood groups which exist in ABO system are O, A, B and AB. Also, allele A and B are co-dominant i.e. if they both will exist on the surface of an RBC then both will be equally expressed which implies that there will be no dominant or recessive allele.

Type O blood group has H antigen on the surface of RBC and has both the antibodies i.e. antibody A and B. The absence of antigens A and B makes it a universal donor.

Type A blood group has A antigen on RBC and has antibody B in the plasma.

Type B blood group has B antigen on RBC and has antibody A in the plasma.

Type AB blood group has both the antigens i.e. antigen A and B on RBC and does not have any antibody in the plasma which makes it a universal acceptor.
