Answer: The most affected would be organs that have QUICKLY dividing cells (like the intestine and hair follicles).
Explanation:
Cancer cells are cells that divides uncontrollably giving rise to a mass of tissue called tumour. They grow faster than a normal cell in an uncoordinated manner, and continues to grow after the initial stimulus has ceased.
Paclitaxel is a drug that is approved for the treatment of cancer affecting different parts of the body. It's a microtubule-stabilizing drug whose mechanism of action is to induce mitotic arrest in the cancer cells.
Paclitaxel in its cause of action not only affect cancer cells but normal cells as well. To justify this statement, as stated earlier, the mechanism of action of paclitaxel is to induce mitotic arrest. Therefore the cells of organs where rapid mitosis occurs would be most affected. Skin cells, hair follicles and the cells lining our intestines (epithelial cells) all have high rates of mitosis as these tissues constantly need to be replaced.
<h2>The Thalamus.</h2>
Explanation:
Dencephalon is the part of the forebrain and includes three parts- epithalamus,thalamus and the hypothalamus.
Epithalamus is a non-nervous part , it remains fused with pia mater and forms the anterior choroid plexus.
The thalamus is located between the midbrain and the cerebral cortex. It filters sensory information and directs them to appropriate parts of cerebrum.
Hypothalamus is located beneath the thalamus. It is an integrating center for many important homeostatic functions.
If not parents had a recessive type O allele, they would have a 1/4 or 25% chance of having a child with type O blood
The conclusion that can be drawn from the last statement is that ALL THE ANIMALS LISTED ABOVE ARE HYBRID ANIMALS.
Hybrid animals are those animals that are produce from the interbreeding of two animals that are of different species but which come from the same genus. Hybrid animals can not produce fertile offspring because they do not possess viable sex cells, that is, they do not have the capacity to reproduce sperms or eggs.
<em>An organism's genetic code is determined by the sequence of nucleotides of the DNA. </em>
What I mean is that it determines the nitrogen bases along a gene.
