Answer:

The options

A. dyspnea

B. Ataxia

C. cataplexy

D. narcolepsy

Our ANSWER IS D.

D. narcolepsy

Explanation:

It is a chronic sleep disorder which leads to excessive daylight drowsiness.

It may be due to a genetic factor and unusual signal being released in the brain as a result of absence of the brain chemical called hypocretin/orexin, which controls sleep. It is often seen as the effect of the immune system erroneously working against the production of hypocretin in thr brain.

It results in unexpected attacks of sleep, abrupt loss of muscle tone and hallucinations.

Explain its normal role and why scientists would regard it as the "guardian of the genome."
Burka [1]
The gene p53, also called the guardian of the genome is located on the 17th chromosome in human genomes.
It was given this alternative name because it has a role in response to damage of DNA molecule and in preventing cancer.
The protein product of this gene stops the replication of damaged DNA, activates proteins that repair the DNA damage and if the reparation proteins fail to fix the damage it activates the process of apoptosis or so-called cell death in order to prevent the damaged cell to proliferate and potentially develop into a tumor.

This holds an organism's hereditary information. All cells contain the same genetic information before differentiation.
umka2103 [35]

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is macromolecule composed of nucleotides (nitrogen nucleobase, deoxyribose sugar and phosphate group) which carries genetic information (instructions). Instructions within DNA are for development, growth, reproduction and many other functional roles of an organism.


All of the cells within an organism contain the same genome (full set of DNA-chromosomes). When cells begin the process of differentiation (cells become specified) their genome stays the same, but the gene expression  is different (different genes are on or off).
