Answer:

Retinoblastoma is more common in people due to the mutation of RB gene in them.

Explanation:

Retinoblastoma is a disease that affects the eyes of an individual. It is more commonly eye cancer which occurs on the retina of the eye. Retinoblastoma mainly affects younger children.

When the RB gene is mutated or it is deleted already on any one of a homologous chromosomes, then only one hit rather that two which is needed to cause the development of retinoblastoma and hence the probability is of retinoblastoma to occur is higher in the individuals who have already inherited the RB deletion and also have a genetic predisposition for the retinoblastoma.

If a single base pair gets damaged and goes missing from an rna, what would most likely happen?
Vilka [71]

A frame-shift mutation would occur. This is because a deletion will cause a change in codon sequence from the point of mutation to the end of the mRNA.  If the mutation is closer to the start of the mRNA, the larger the effect of the mutation on the translated protein.

Photosynthesis is the term for the process by which plants produce food and energy in the presence of some inorganic substances and solar energy.

<h3>What is the reason behind the above answer ?</h3>

The glass of water won't react when it's placed in the sun's rays.

One explanation for the response is: Water and ambient carbon will be the reactants in the experiment, which should produce glucose and oxygen in the presence of the sunbeam.

The true photosynthetic reaction also uses carbon dioxide and water as reactants, but chlorophyll is a plant pigment that is present during the reaction.
