Answer:
The correct answer is option c. "frameshift mutations".
Explanation:
The reading frame of a gene is based on base-pair triplets, starting from the start codon until the ribosome encounters with the end codon. Base-pair additions and deletions are collectively referred to as frameshift mutations because they alter the reading frame of the gene. Base-pair additions and deletions break down the original sequence of the gene triplets, which alters the open reading frame and usually results in the production of non active proteins.
Answer:D.D.) Suspend the cells in liquid agar culture and monitor which culture continues to grow.
Explanation
Options A-C are correct except D.
→Increase in Telomere length is indicative of abnormal growth, cancer cells can reactive telomerase to increase cell's length.
→Once a monolayer is reached; this a stage of a complete normal cell division , a cell that goes beyond this stage must be mutated. assuming all other factors are constant .
Uncontrolled cell division is an indication of virulent growth in mutated cells.
<u>Cancer cell requires a ,medium of living host to thrive, alga medium will not support growth for carcinoma cells -the correct answer. </u>
<u></u>
Completed Que.
:Imagine that you are a graduate student working in a cancer lab. You accidentally mix unlabeled tubes of carcinoma cells with tubes of normal epithelial cells. Which of the following is NOT a possible strategy to allow you to distinguish which tubes contain carcinoma cells?
A.)Monitor telomere length over time during multiple cell divisions.
B.) Plate the cells in culture and look for the culture that stops dividing once a monolayer is reached.
C.) Monitor the rate of cell division.
D.) Suspend the cells in liquid agar culture and monitor which culture continues to grow.
B. Cells reproduce independently and viruses require a host to reproduce
