In the microarray analysis some genes, such as ERB-B2 and ESR1, have been found to be associated with particular disease or cond

itions such as cancer. Other genes, such as the ABC-B2 gene, are not associated with a disease but are involved in resistance to certain drugs or treatments. Why would it be useful to test for the expression of genes like the ABC-B2 gene on the microarray

Answer:

The expression of genes associated with drug resistance leads to the reduction in the effectiveness of drugs against cancer cells.

Explanation:

In cancer, drug resistance is produced when oncogenic cells are able to develop mechanisms of resistance against drugs such as, for example, chemotherapeutic agents. In these cases, therapeutic treatments become ineffective to fight against cancer cells and tumor progression. In consequence, it is imperative to trace the expression of target oncogenes associated with drug resistance in order to provide effective treatments to eliminate cancer cells.

Discussion/Conclusion
NISA [10]

Answer:

Due to small in size.

Explanation:

Some organelles such as nucleus, mitochondria and Golgi bodies can't be seen because they are too small in size and near to the limit of the microscope. Organelles present in plant cell are nucleus, mitochondria and Golgi, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, one big vacuole, cell membrane and cell wall whereas organelles present in animal cell such as nucleus, mitochondria and Golgi bodies, endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, lysosomes, several small vacuoles and cell membrane. In animal cell centriole and lysosomes are present and absent in plant cell while in plant cell, cell wall and one large vacuole present in the center of the nucleus and these organelles are absent in animal cell. Plant and animal cells are eukaryotic because they have organelles and surrounded by membrane.

What is the fluid found in the extracellular matrix that holds cells together as tissue and allows them to communicate with one
