Answer:
Negatively charged phosphate groups of two strands are aligned distantly from each other in a DNA double helix.
Explanation:
DNA double helix is formed when the complementary bases of two single DNA strands pair with each other. The formation of double-stranded structures places the negatively charged phosphate groups of two single DNA strands away from each other. This is because complementary base pairs are present between the sugar-phosphate backbones of two DNA strands of a double helix. The double-helical structure also concentrates the nitrogenous bases away from the surrounding watery medium. Altogether, these factors stabilize DNA dyad.

Each cell expresses, or turns on, only a fraction of its genes. The rest of the genes are repressed, or turned off.
The turned on genes are then first transcribed into messenger RNA by the process of Transcription.
Then the mRNA is Translated into protein by the process called Translation.
This is how the specific genes are expressed.
Answer:
The phenotype is the result of the interaction between the genes (i.e., genotype) and environmental factors.
Explanation:
Cancer is a disease caused by abnormal expression of genes involved in the cell cycle, mitosis, DNA replication, etc. Moreover, the abnormal gene expression may be associated with environmental factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, etc.
