Answer:

D (characteristics of living things)

Explanation:

All things in existence are made up of matter, which can either be living or non-living depending on whether or not they have LIFE in them. This means that the possession of life distinguishes a living thing from a non-living thing. This life that living things possesses makes them able to perform certain functions called their characteristics.

Based on these, the characteristics of living things have been summarized into an acronym called MR NIGER D with each letter meaning a particular characteristic.

M- Movement (ability to move)

R- Reproduction (ability to produce young ones)

N- Nutrition (ability to absorb nutrients)

I- Irritability (ability to respond to stimulus in the environment)

G- Growth (ability to increase in size, weight and height)

E- Excretion (ability to pass out waste products from the body)

R- Respiration (ability to obtain energy)

D- Death (ability to die)

Looking at all these characteristics, they are possessed by insects, plants, animals, humans etc. Hence, they are all grouped as living things.

Why are polygenic diseases less suited to gene therapy?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

<u>Polygenic therapies are more likely to show </u><u>unintended effects</u><u> in other regions of the genome likely resulting in harmful diseases.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Gene therapy involves biotechnological techniques that add or remove gene sequences in the genome. These are typically used in eliminating harmful genes that cause genetic diseases or disorders and are generally thought to improve an individual's quality of life.

Polygenic traits are controlled by several genes. Similarly, polygenic diseases may be caused by variations in several gene sequences. These include hypertension, heart disease, and diabetes. Polygenic therapies are more likely to show unintended effects in other regions of the genome, leading to other deleterious disease-causing effects.
