Answer:

Option (d).

Explanation:

Telomere may be defined as the repetitive DNA sequence present at the ends of the chromosomes. Telomeres consists of the nucleotide sequence rich in G and consists of vertebrate sequence  AGGGTT.

The mutation in telomerase enzyme can cause the excessive replication of the telomeres. These leads to the excessive cellular proliferation and makes the cell immortal. This extensive growth of telomere is one of the maine reason of the cancer development.

Thus, the correct answer is option (d).

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Although humans and animals (technically “non-human animals”) may look different, at a physiological and anatomical level they are remarkably similar. Animals, from mice to monkeys, have the same organs (heart, lungs, brain etc.) and organ systems (respiratory, cardiovascular, nervous systems etc.)

Humans have a heart with two atria and two ventricles that pushes blood in one direction. Some animals have hearts similar to humans but, other animals have only one atrium and one ventricle or a cardiovascular system that can push blood in two directions.

Memory for stimulus sequences distinguishes humans from other animals. Summary: Humans possess many cognitive abilities not seen in other animals, such as a full-blown language capacity as well as reasoning and planning abilities.
