A cell size is limited by a cell’s surface area to volume ratio.

Discuss 3 different types of mutations that can happen
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Un cambio en la secuencia de bases en el ADN o ARN se conoce como mutación . ¿La palabra mutación te hace pensar en ciencia ficción y monstruos con ojos de insecto? Piensa de nuevo. Todos tienen mutaciones. De hecho, la mayoría de las personas tienen decenas o hasta cientos de mutaciones en su ADN. Las mutaciones son esenciales para que ocurra la evolución. Son la fuente principal de todo el material genético nuevo -nuevos alelos - en una especie. Aunque la mayoría de las mutaciones no tienen efectos en los organismos en que ocurren, algunas mutaciones son beneficiosas. Incluso las mutaciones dañinas rara vez causan cambios drásticos en los organismos.

Why would tissue from the fetal stage of human development be used to look at mitosis?
WITCHER [35]
Mitosis is the process of cell division, where one parent cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells. This process is vital in growth and tissue repair. 
The reason that tissue from the fetal stage is helpful in studying mitosis is because mitosis is continuously and rapidly occurring in this phase of life in humans. The high rate of mitosis is due to the need for the fetus to grow rapidly and develop the necessary parts for it to be born.

Dietary fiber has been recommended for its possible benefits in reducing heart disease by lowering blood cholesterol. How does f
malfutka [58]

Answer:

By lowering the levels of total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL)

Explanation:

Dietary fibers are classified into two: the soluble fiber and the insoluble fiber. Studies have show that the soluble fiber play a significant role in lowering blood cholesterol, hence reducing the cardiovascular diseases.

Soluble fiber helps to lower blood cholesterol by its ability to bind to the small intestine which further binds to cholesterol most especially the ad cholesterol (low density lipoprotein). Binding of Fibers to cholesterol prevents them from migrating to the blood stream and to other  parts of the body. Since cholesterol can't get into the bloodstream, it exits the body through feces. Fiber has more effect on lowering LDL (bad cholesterol) than High density lipoprotein (good cholesterol.
