References Chapter 1: Problems Studies of existing cells to determine the minimum number of genes for a living cell have suggest

ed that 206 genes are sufficient. If the ratio of protein-coding genes is the same in this minimal organism as the genes of Escherichia coli (0.980), how many proteins are represented in these 206 genes.

Answer:

201.88 ≈ 202.

Explanation:

Genes are the functional segment of DNA that are responsible for the phenotype and genotype of the organisms. Different number of genes are present in different organisms.

The number of the genes that are sufficient in the living cell is 206.

The ratio of protein-coding genes in Escherichia coli is 0.98.

Number of proteins = No. of genes × Ratio of protein coding genes.

Number of protein = 206 × 0.98

Number of protein=201.88 ≈ 202.

Thus, the answer is 201.88 ≈ 202.

Paclitaxel affects not only cancer cells, but normal cells as well. Would the effects of Paclitaxel be seen first in organs that
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: The most affected would be organs that have QUICKLY dividing cells (like the intestine and hair follicles).

Explanation:

Cancer cells are cells that divides uncontrollably giving rise to a mass of tissue called tumour. They grow faster than a normal cell in an uncoordinated manner, and continues to grow after the initial stimulus has ceased.

Paclitaxel is a drug that is approved for the treatment of cancer affecting different parts of the body. It's a microtubule-stabilizing drug whose mechanism of action is to induce mitotic arrest in the cancer cells.

Paclitaxel in its cause of action not only affect cancer cells but normal cells as well. To justify this statement, as stated earlier, the mechanism of action of paclitaxel is to induce mitotic arrest. Therefore the cells of organs where rapid mitosis occurs would be most affected. Skin cells, hair follicles and the cells lining our intestines (epithelial cells) all have high rates of mitosis as these tissues constantly need to be replaced.
