If each cell has multiple mutations, why do most of us have normally-functioning tissues and organs?

Biology

Most of us has normally-functioning tissue and organs even if the cell has multiple mutations because of DNA repair mechanism.This repair mechanism has multiple processes by which any damage in the genetic material can be repaired before the protein is synthesized.In human beings there are many factors like environmental factors and metabolic activities that can cause mutation in DNA but the repair system does not allows the abnormal DNA to form abnormal proteins this saves the abnormal functioning of tissues and organs .More than 1 million molecular lesions per cell are repaired, these lesions leads to structural damage and the damaged cells are killed by apoptosis. This repair system continues as the cells divide and any alteration in the DNA is solved prior to the protein synthesis this result sin normal functioning of tissues and organs.

What are hydrogen bonds and how do they affect the physical characteristics of water?
Kobotan [32]

Explanation:

A hydrogen bond is a common type of chemical bond in organisms. As the name suggests, this type of bond involves a hydrogen atom. The hydrogen is attracted to a strongly electronegative atom, such as oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen of a polar covalent bond in the same or another molecule.

This gives water unique properties, such as a relatively high boiling point, high specific heat, cohesion, adhesion and density.

A nurse is caring for a client receiving a gastric tube feeding. what nursing actions should be taken to prevent overfeeding?
stellarik [79]
The nursing action should be checking of residual every four to six hours, follow protocol for slowing or withholding feedings for excess residual volumes in which some facilities hold for residual volumes of 100 or 200 ml then restart at the lower rate after a period of rest, check pump for proper operation and ensure feeding infused at correct rate.

The researchers introduced a small RNA complementary to a portion of the mRNA encoding protein A into the Brec-MUT cells growing
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Delivered small RNAs can inhibit protein A production through the RNA interference (RNAi) mechanism, and thus impairs angiogenesis  

Explanation:

The pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A is a protease enzyme involved in the formation of new blood vessels by increasing insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) bioavailability. Moreover, small RNAs (<200 nucleotides in length, generally 18 to 30 nucleotides) are non-coding RNA molecules that function in RNA silencing through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. Small RNAs are widely used in molecular biology laboratories because they can be delivered into specific cells in order to silence target mRNAs such as, in this case, the mRNA encoding protein A, by complementary base pairing and thereby inducing translational repression. In consequence, mRNAs complementary to delivered small RNAs are silenced through RNAi pathways, i.e., by cleavage of the target mRNA and/or mRNA destabilization.

A student made a model of a cell. First, she filled a clear plastic bag with gelatin.
Ksivusya [100]
B) the model does not show that cells can contain smaller structures inside.

This is true because only a rubber ball was added, indicating that only a nucleus or any one organelle is present in a cell. However, the cell contains more than one organelle from the nucleus, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum, ribosomes, and more.

Another possible answer would be D since they model does not show the process of cellular respiration where cells undergo this process to create ATP in the mitochondria.
