a student reads in a science magazine that a mutation in a body cell causes it to divide rapidly, forming large masses of cells.

these masses of cells cause other body cells to divide uncontrollably. the student claims that the mutation is beneficial to the organism. is the student's claim correct?

Name two things you can do to reduce emissions
kolezko [41]
You can take the bus or carpool rather than drive with one or 2 people in one car
You can reduce the amount of electric you use by turning off lights, and shutting things that are "on" but you are not using them.

Use reusable water containers, filter your own water.  Try not to use disposable items.

How many dna molecules are present in your diploid cells
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

92 molecules

Explanation:

DNA or Deoxyribosenucleic acid is polynucleotide made up of several nucleotides containing the genetic information of an organism. In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule is packaged into thread-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of DNA, tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones to support its stucture.

Human cells, like myself, contains 23 pairs of chromosomes (46 chromosomes in total). Each pair coming from each parent. Each chromosome is formed by two strands of DNA held together by hydrogen bonds forming the DNA double-helical structure. These two DNA strands form a base pair, which is a unit of two nucleotide bases bound to each other by hydrogen bonds. According to the complementary base pairing rule, Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T) while Guanine pairs with Cytosine (C).

Since there are 46 chromosomes in a diploid human cell and each chromosome consists of 2 DNA strands, then, there are 46 × 2 = 92 strands/molecules of DNA in each human diploid cell.

In your own words, explain natural selection and include an example
miskamm [114]
Okay, this has to be in your own words, but I will tell you this. Natural Selection is living organisms that have adapted to the environment which surrounds them leading the the producing of offspring. Example, bugs are eaten by frogs and frogs are eaten by snakes and snakes are eaten by birds.
