Imagine that you are a scientist hard at work in a cancer research lab. You and many of your colleagues are hoping to discover n

ew powerful drugs that could prevent deaths from cancer.
Your research team has observed that cancer cells have a lower survival rate when exposed to samples of a certain species of fungus. To study this further, your team isolated several chemicals from the fungus, including one known to affect cell metabolism. You hypothesize that it is that chemical that lowers the survival rate of cancer cells.
1. Statement(s) supported by the data
A- Cancer cells treated with the chemical have a lower survival rate than cells that are not treated.
B- .After 5 days of chemical treatment, less than 50% of the cancer cells are alive.
2. Statement(s) NOT supported by the data
A- Cancer cells treated with the chemical have a higher survival rate than cells that are not treated.
B- After 10 days without chemical treatment, more than 90% of the cancer cells are alive.
C- This chemical will be useful for treating colon cancer, but not necessarily for other types of cancers.
D- This chemical will be useful for treating all types of cancers.

Answer:

The answers are a) Cancer cells treated with the chemical have a lower survival rate than cells that are not treated and d) This chemical will be useful for treating all types of cancer.

Explanation:

Since the research finds that cancer cells have a lower survival rate when exposed to a particular species of fungus. In addition to this new chemical compound could be implemented as a cancer drug.

Codominance.

Codominance occurs when, for example, a Dominant Blue color gene for a leaf crosses with a Dominant White color gene for a leaf. The genotype would be BW. This would result in, for example, a blue and white spotted leaf color. INCOMPLETE dominance occurs when both dominant alleles blend together, resulting in, eg, a pale blue color resulting from the blue and white colors mixing.

SCORPION-xisa [38]
<h2>b) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

  • Some bacterial toxins cause disease by  altering the activity of G protein, cholera toxin is one of them
  • Cholera toxin catalyse ADP ribosylation of Gs and blocks GTPase activity thus Gs GTP become permanently active
  • Constitutive activation of Gs protein continuously induce adenylyl cyclase, cytosolic cAMP level rises that leads to activation of protein kinase A (pKA)
  • Activated pKA catalyse phosphorylation of two transmembrane proteins of intestinal epithelial cells:
  • CFTR cause excessive outflow of Cl- ion and Na+ H+ exchange cause efflux of Na+ ion, both enters in gut and form Na+ Cl-
  • Na+Cl- leads to outflow of water from the gut, resulting in diarrhea and dehydration and this condition may cause death of organisms due to loss of water and ions
