”A vaccine contains the antigens of a pathogen that causes disease. For example, the smallpox vaccine contains the antigens specific to smallpox. When a person is vaccinated against smallpox, the immune system responds by stimulating antibody-producing cells that are capable of making smallpox antibodies.”

Describe the genetic mutations that you think occurred in the cancer cells that were responsible for the phenotypic differences
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Cancer cells are characterized by mutations associated with the uncontrolled growth of these tumor cells

Explanation:

Mutations in tumor suppressor genes are often associated with different types of cancers. On the other hand, mutations derived from the insertion of Transposable Elements may also activate cancer-related genes which are known as oncogenes

Brrunno [24]

What is a gene?

  • According to Mendel something was being stably passed down, unchanged, from parent to offspring through the gametes, over successive generations. He called these things as ‘factors’ now called as genes. Genes, therefore, are the units of inheritance.
  • They contain the information that is required to express a particular trait in an organism.
  • Genes which code for a pair of contrasting traits are known as alleles, i.e., they are slightly different forms of the same gene.
  • There is no ambiguity that the genes are located on the DNA, it is difficult to literally define a gene in terms of DNA sequence.
  • The DNA sequence coding for tRNA or rRNA molecule also defines a gene. A cistron is defined as a segment of DNA coding for a polypeptide, the structural gene in a transcription unit could be said as monocistronic (mostly in eukaryotes) or polycistronic (mostly in bacteria or prokaryotes).

From one original cell, four genetically unique daughter cells, each with 23 nonreplicated chromosomes, are produced at the conc
lukranit [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs in gametic cells. In this cell division, one cell is divided into four cells and the chromosome number is reduced to half therefore it is also called reduction division.

During meiosis crossing over occurs between homologous chromosomes that allow the exchange of genetic material between them that results in the formation of genetically unique daughter cells.  

In spermatogenesis during the first meiosis division, the homologous chromosomes get separated into two daughter cells reducing the chromosome number by half and during second meiotic division sister chromatids separate into two more cells. Therefore four genetically different cells are generated.

Most land-dwelling invertebrates and all of the amphibians _____. _____ Select one: a. are ectothermic organisms with variable b
valkas [14]

Answer:

A.)are ectothermic organisms with variable body temperatures.

Explanation:

Invertebrates animal are animals that lack a backbone, Land invertebrates include insects,spiders, centipedes ,coelenterate, an arthropod, mollusc and the rest.

Ectotherms are also called called cold-blooded animal because their bl body temperature regulation is dependendent on external sources, such as sunlight or a heated rock surface. Some of the examples of ectotherms are fishes, amphibians, invertebratesand reptiles. The aquatic ectotherms body temperature is usually compare closely to the temperature of the surrounding water

Ectothermic species that lives in temperate regions usually experience rapid and potentially stressful changes in body temperature simply because of weather changes even among amphibians there is variation in their temperature

It is believed that naturally occurring periods of temperature variation negatively impact amphibian health.
