✔️Malnutrition is a condition that results from eating a diet in which one or more nutrients are either not enough or are too much such that the diet causes health problems.It may involve calories, protein, carbohydrates, vitamins or minerals.

✔️Not enough nutrients is called undernutrition or undernourishment while too much is called overnutrition.

✔️Malnutrition is often used to specifically refer to undernutrition where an individual is not getting enough calories, protein, or micronutrients.

✔️If undernutrition occurs during pregnancy, or before two years of age, it may result in permanent problems with physical and mental development.

✔️Extreme undernourishment, known as starvation, may have symptoms that include:
▪️a short height
▪️thin body
▪️very poor energy levels
▪️and swollen legs and abdomen.

✔️People also often get infections and are frequently cold.The symptoms of micronutrient deficiencies depend on the micronutrient that is lacking.

with reference to the role of oncogenes, explain how the normal controls over the cell cycle can be lost.
Katena32 [7]
<span>#1) With reference to the role of oncogenes, explain how the normal controls over the cell cycle can be lost.

Answer: The way that cell cycle can be lost is by going through changes in the activity of cell cycle regulators. Cancer causes different types of mutations. There are two types of cell cycle regulators that can promote the development of cancer:

-Positive Regulators that can be over activated (become oncogenic).
-Negative Regulators (tumor suppressors) which can be inactivated.

I hope it helps, Regards. <span /><span>
