The average volume of a red blood cell is 87 μ m 3 . The mean concentration of hemoglobin in red blood cells is 0.34 g ⋅ ml − 1
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

2.956 × 10 ⁻¹¹ g

Explanation:

The mean concentration of hemoglobin in red blood cell = 0.34 g/ml

average volume of a red blood cell = 87μ m³ where 1 μ m³ = 1 × 10 ⁻¹² ml

average volume = 87 × 1 × 10 ⁻¹² ml  = 87 × 10 ⁻¹² ml

weight of hemoglobin contained in an average red blood cell =  87 × 10 ⁻¹² ml × 0.34 g/ml = 2.956 × 10 ⁻¹¹ g

using the gas pedal analogy explain the impact on the cell cycle of a proto-oncogene versus an oncogene
rusak2 [61]

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.
