What information could cancer researchers gain from using DNA microarrays?

Biology
1 answer:
Evgen [1.6K]4 years ago
7 0

DNA microarrays allow scientists to determine the genotype of a chunk of our genome and also measure the how the genes in that chunk are expressed. Using this technique has been essential in isolating genes that predispose people to cancers, and therefore allowing physicians to preemptively identify and monitor at-risk individuals. For instance, the genes BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2 have all been identified (using DNA microarrays) and linked to breast cancer. Knowing this allows individuals to seek out testing and take appropriate measures to prevent cancer/monitor the possible onset of cancer, which has proven to be life-saving.

Red-eyed tree frog eggs can hatch up to two days earlier than average when they detect vibrations. However, if they hatch more t
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Hatching is an essential embryo behavior that mediates the transition between two distinct stages of life, in the egg and post-hatching environments, when developing animals are exposed to different risks and opportunities. Variation in either of these environments can affect when is the best time to hatch. Environmentally cued hatching allows embryos to respond adaptively to their local environment by altering the timing of their hatching. Therefore, the vibrations can make the frog eggs hatch before time. So if it hatches more then two days early the frog will not be able to live and will die.
