Answer:
Explanation:
Proto-oncogenes are genes that have the potential to turn normal cells to cancer cells if they mutate. Once they have a mutation, they are called oncogenes. These typically code for proteins that control the cell cycle and cell growth.
Ras proteins are intracellular, and act as molecular switches that can be inactive or active. If they are inactive and receive a signal from the extracellular space indicating that the cell has to grow, they bind GTP and become activated. Once active, they send further signals that stimulate cell proliferation and division. After a while of sending those signals, the Ras protein hydrolizes GTP to GDP because it has an intrinsic GTPase activity, and becomes inactive once again, stopping the growth signal.
Mutations in the Ras oncogene typically affect the GTPase activity, causing its loss of function and subsequently that the Ras protein stays permanently active. This, in turn, causes uncontrollable cell proliferation, characteristic of cancer.
Answer:
These enzymes do everything from breaking glucose down for energy to building cell walls, constructing new enzymes and allowing the cell to reproduce.
Explanation:
The first steps they take into consideration is where did it start, where has it spread, then they ask themselves questions is there an viruses similar to this one? Has anyone else found information on this virus? (Etc) then they probably start research by seeing who else has found info on the virus and then they might start to set up labs to conduct there own test to get a better understanding, then once all of that is done they start releasing information to people, for info I would look at the health page of your country or state or province (mines health Canada yours might be different)
The complete question is as follows:
What is the independent variable in this strawberry experiment?
O the type of pots
O the number and weight of strawberries produced
the potting soil
O the water schedule
O size and age of plants
Answer:
The correct answer is - the watering schedule.
Explanation:
Independent variable is the variable or the factor which is changed or manipulated during a study or experiment to find the effect on the dependent variable.
The variable that is manipulated in this experiment is the watering schedule and the aim of the experiment is also finding the role of the effect of the watering schedule on fruit production. In this study, the watering schedule is manipulated for different pots of plants to see the effect on the production of fruit.
