Mitosis produces an exact copy of the original containing the same 46 chromosomes as the original cell
Meiosis produces 4 individual sex cells ( gametes) with only 23 chromosomes in each. This is so when a sperm cell and and egg cell meet the combine to make 46 total chromosomes with genes from each parent
Maximum Thrift is a method / philosophy that considers the shortest tree (in number of transformation steps) the best hypothesis about the phylogenetic relationship of a given set of terminals. Transformation step is the cost attributed to the change of character state in a given branch of the tree, be it the change from one nucleotide base to another, amino acids, or the color of an animal's iris. The fewer transformations, the shorter the tree, and therefore the more parsimonious. In this method, what programs do is to investigate as many alternative topologies as possible (or all if their array has less than 25 terminals; see more details below) given their character array. Each will be measured, and the shorter (optimal) trees will be retained as the most parsimonious result.
Genes organized on
chromosomes carry the information that controls the functions of the cell. Each gene contains a particular set of code for a particular molecule or protein for a specific function.
Answer:
p53 helps the cells from passing on mutations that lead to DNA damage. Hence, it is known as the guardian angel of the cell as it helps fight against cancer. However, if p53 becomes defective or missing, then the mutations will lead to cancer.
Mutations in the p53 can also cause the tumor-suppressing genes to convert into tumor causing genes. Hence, mutations in such kind of genes can be very harmful for the body.
