Subduction zones are found under which kind of plate

Biology
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]3 years ago
7 0
High rates of volcanism, earthquakes, and mountain building are the sites of subduction zones. They occur in convergent boundaries found in tectonic plates of both oceanic and continental crusts. Subduction zones occur when one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate, sinking into the mantle as the plates converge again.
<span>
Regions that are within subduction zones experience an average rate of convergence of 2-8 centimeters per year. They are subject to many earthquakes because of the collisions that occur within the tectonic plates. </span>

Describe the genetic mutations that you think occurred in the cancer cells that were responsible for the phenotypic differences
ruslelena [56]

ANSWER:

Most types of cancer are believed to begin with a random genetic mutation. This is followed by mutations, which endow the cancer cells with properties allowing them to grow without normal controls to become a tumor.

Mutation is any change in the DNA sequence of a cell. Mutations may be caused by mistakes during cell division, or they may be caused by exposure to DNA-damaging agents in the environment.

Genetic Mutations that lead to cancer cell formation can occur in two forms:

1. GROWTH-PROMOTING GENES are commonly mutated in cancer cells, becoming SUPER-ACTIVE and producing cells that are too strongly stimulated by growth receptors.

2. Mutations can INACTIVATE the genes that suppress cell proliferation or those that signal the need for apoptosis. These genes are known as TUMOR SUPPRESSOR GENES.
