The answer would have to be carcinogens. Carcinogens are substances that are capable of causing mutation to cells. These mutation usually referred as cancer. Common carcinogens that we know include tobacco smoke, asbestos, arsenic, radon and pesticides. Carcinogens can be inhaled, ingested or absorbed.

Genetic disorders can result in chroma tides fail to separate properly during which phase is this problem most likely to our car
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Anaphase of meiosis II

Explanation:

I think you are asking during which phase of cell division sister chromatids are mostly likely to fail to separate properly, a phenomenon that can lead to genetic disease.

This is sometimes called non-disjunction, and it is most likely to occur in anaphase during meiosis II. During this stage, sister chromatids of the two daughter cells produced by meiosis 1 are separated and brought to opposite parts of the cell. If something goes wrong at this stage, the sister chromatids can fail to separate properly, meaning the daughter cells do not have the correct number of chromosomes (see attachment).

An example of such a genetic disorder is Down syndrome

If the initiating codon of a mRNA became mutated, what would the effect be on the transcript?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Translation will not occur.

Explanation:

The start codon is responsible for the initiation of translation in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. AUG is the start codon in both which code for methionine in eukaryotes and formyl methionine and prokaryotes.

Therefore if the starts codon becomes mutated than the tRNA would not able to recognize the initiation codon and no methionine would be added as the first amino acid so the translation process might not start and no protein forms. Then the ribosome scans further for the next start codon to start translation.
