Answer:
The correct answer is option d) "Silencer".
Explanation:
Gene silencing is the regulation of a gene expression that results in avoiding the expression of a gene during a certain period of time. A silencer is a DNA sequence that produces gene silencing. In this example the researcher founds that a gene is not longer regulated in all cells and the gene is still transcribed and translated into protein. The mutation responsible of this it is likely to be occurring in a silencer, avoiding gene silencing of the studied gene in all cells.
Answer:
By changing a gene's instructions for making a protein, a mutation can cause the protein to malfunction or to be missing entirely. When a mutation alters a protein that plays a critical role in the body, it can disrupt normal development or cause a medical condition
Explanation:
Using the gas pedal analogy, the proto-oncogene would be an accelerator since they promote cell division and
deregulate apoptosis, while tumor suppressor would
be the brakes since they constrain the progress of the cell
cycle and induce cell apoptosis. An
oncogene is, therefore, when the accelerator
is stuck in down position and the brakes are not working.
