The molecular clock (based on the molecular clock hypothesis (MCH)) is a technique in molecular evolution that uses fossil constraints and rates of molecular change to deduce the time in geologic history when two species or other taxa diverged. It is used to estimate the time of occurrence of events called speciation or radiation. The molecular data used for such calculations is usually nucleotide sequences for DNA or amino acid sequences for proteins. It is sometimes called a gene clock or evolutionary clock.

lesya692 [45]

Engineers are trying to improve a race car. Their goal is to increase the acceleration of the car using the same engine. The change that shows the best application of Newton’s laws of motion to achieve this goal is - option D - decreasing the mass of the car.

When the mass of the car will be less, it will automatically accelerate to higher speed as lighter things move faster than heavier things.

Answers:

a) carcinogenic

b) anti-carcinogenic

c) carcinogenic

d) carcinogenic

e) carcinogenic

f) anti-carcinogenic

g) anti-carcinogenic

h) anti-carcinogenic

Explanation:

Cyclins are proteins that regulate the progression through the cell cycle, i.e., the transition of G1 to S phase. It is well known that high cyclin expression may lead to cell proliferation states, which is closely associated with cancer progression. Moreover, the blockage of cyclins may have an anti-carcinogenic effect by inhibiting the progression through the cell cycle. MAP kinases are serine/threonine kinases that regulate the progression through the cell cycle by phosphorylating a variety of substrates during cell proliferation. In consequence, phosphatases that inactivate MAPK kinases (i.e., by dephosphorylation) may have an anticarcinogenic effect. The p53 is a tumor suppressor protein involved in diverse cellular processes including DNA repair, cycle arrest and programmed cell death. This protein (p53) is activated by phosphorylation at target residues and phosphatases inactivate it, thereby the blockage of its degradation may have an anticarcinogenic effect. Oncogene activation (i.e., the expression of oncogenes), may alter diverse cellular processes including DNA replication, and thereby may lead to cancer development. The G-protein α subunit is a GTPase that hydrolyses GTP and thus has a major role in controlling the kinetics of the G-protein signaling cascade. Platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFR) are kinase receptors that play roles in regulating cellular differentiation, cell proliferation and cell growth. PDGFR receptors are present on the surface of normal cells, however, it has been shown that mutations of the PDGFR genes that lead to their high expression lead to uncontrolled cell growth and consequently cause cancer (i.e., by increasing PDGF signaling).

horrorfan [7]

Answer: Gender identity

Explanation:

Gender identity is how a person sees themselves their own internal sense and personal experience of gender. Only the individual can determine their own gender identity. Gender indentity refers to the degree to which we see ourselves as feminine, masculine, transsexual or perhaps even nongender and having no gender at all. Gender identity occurs as a result of a combination of inherent and extrinsic or environmental factors; gender role, on the other hand, is manifested within society by observable factors such as behavior and impression
