Answer:
Cancer is formed when there are mutations in a number of genes.
Explanation:
Malignant tumors are gene diseases which do not mean that cancer is necessarily an inherited disease (only in 5-10% of cases the cancer is inherited) because the vast majority of other tumors are the result of somatic, ie secondary, mutations that lead to malignant transformation.
Only 2% of human diseases are monogenic (caused by a change in one gene). The remaining 98% of the disease is either polygenic (caused by a change in several genes at the same time) or epigenetic (caused by non-genetic or post-genetic disorders of cellular molecules).
Answer:
Animal cells tend to do best in an isotonic environment, plant cells tend to do best in
a hypotonic environment. This is demonstrated in the attached PDF.
Explanation:
A cell that does not have a rigid cell wall, such as a red blood cell, will swell and lyse (burst) when placed in a hypotonic solution, a process called cytolysis. Cells with a cell wall will swell when placed in a hypotonic solution, but once the cell is turgid (firm), the tough cell wall prevents any more water from entering the cell. When placed in a hypertonic solution, a cell without a cell wall will lose water to the environment, shrivel, and probably die. In a hypertonic solution, a cell with a cell wall will lose water too. The plasma membrane pulls away from the cell wall as it shrivels, a process called plasmolysis.
I hope this helps. If not I am really sorry!
Answer:
Its how you see it.
Explanation:
1.Life on Earth is based on carbon, likely because each carbon atom can form bonds with up to four other atoms simultaneously. This quality makes carbon well-suited to form the long chains of molecules that serve as the basis for life as we know it, such as proteins and DNA.
2.All life on earth <em><u>can be thought</u></em> of as "carbon-based." Just be careful about turning this around backwards. It is true that all living things contain carbon compounds... but the opposite is not true. Just because a certain material is referred to as organic does not mean it is or ever was alive.
Answer: Biomass
Biomass produces gas or many sorts of waste products which are mostly used in burning and cooking. It is plant or animal material used as fuel to produce electricity or heat. Examples are wood, energy crops, and waste from forests, yards, or farms.
But the reason why it can be harmful is because biomass can produce gases like methane. Methane is a greenhouse gas which can harm the environment and reduce the ozone layer that stops harmful UV light from reaching the earth atmosphere.
Answer:
prenatal environments
Explanation:
Depending on the number of fertilized eggs and when the zygote division occurs, there are different types of twins. For example, If the zygote is formed by the union of an ovule and a sperm that after fertilization is divided to create two embryos, they are born identical twins, these babies carry the same genetic information.
