n cancer cells one allele of the tumor suppressor gene p53 is frequently mutated so that the protein is inactive, not produced,
artcher [175]

Answer:

If the cancer cell's DNA is sequenced than the anticipated results will be that the cytosines in or close to the promoter region will get methylated. It has been stated that in the cancer cells one allele of p53 is mutated and the other allele, however, of exhibiting an intact promoter, does not express the protein.  

Thus, it shows that the expression in the other allele gets suppressed by methylation rather than by mutation. Methylation generally takes place in CpG islands in or close to the promoter region and therefore inhibits transcription.

A microbe is discovered growing near a deep sea thermal vent. When researchers bring a sample up to the surface and try to grow
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The researchers were unable to grow the microbe in the laboratory BECAUSE THE PREVAILING ROOM TEMPERATURE IN THE LABORATORY IS UNSUITABLE FOR THE GROWTH OF THE MICROBE.

Explanation:

Microbes that grow near deep sea thermal vent usually have the ability to exist in environment that have abnormally high temperatures. In order for a researcher to grow such microbes in the laboratory, he must be able to reproduce the high temperature that is found in the natural habitat of the micro organisms. Growing the microbes in the laboratory at room temperature will be unsuccessful because the microbes can not survive at that temperature.

How does a rain shadow affect the weather?
Lunna [17]
A rainshadow occurs when prevailing winds carry moisture from the ocean, eastward over dry land, dropping precipitation on the windward side of a mountain range. Clouds are forced to rise over the range, causing the air to cool and drop its moisture.
