What happens to a cell when it becomes cancerous ?

Biology
2 answers:
Valentin [98]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

When cancer starts to grow within a cell, this cell’s function is altered and it begins to multiply out of control. Simply put, cancer cells are nothing but cells gone wrong - they no longer respond to the signals that control cellular growth and death. Subsequently, they divide more rapidly than their progenitors and become less dependent on signals from other cells.

Given the gene sequence GGACCGTCGATCTTC, which of the following choices would represent an inversion mutation? A. GGACTCGATCTTC
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

D. GGACCGTCGATCCTT

Explanation:

Mutation refers to any change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene. Mutation can be of different types depending on how it occurs. According to the question, an INVERSION mutation is a type of mutation in which a segment of a gene gets broken off and reattached in another way on the same DNA. Hence, the only change in inversion mutation is the arrangement of the nucleotide bases on the gene.

Considering the nucleotide sequence: GGACCGTCGATCTTC, the sequence that describes an occurrence of inversion mutation is: GGACCGTCGATCCTT because the segment TTC in the original sequence has been rearranged as CTT in the mutated sequence.

A strand of tRNA (anticodon) has a sequence of Adenine, Uracil, Guanine. What codon in mRNA attracts this strand of tRNA? A Aden
irakobra [83]

Answer:

uracil, adenine, cytosine

Explanation:

The anticodon of tRNA binds to the triplet codon of mRNA. Adenine of tRNA would pair with uracil of mRNA codon. Uracil of the tRNA anticodon would pair with adenine of the mRNA codon. Similarly, the guanine of the tRNA anticodon binds to the cytosine of the mRNA codon. The codons of mRNA are read from 5' to the 3' direction. And the polarity of the anticodon of tRNA is opposite to that of the mRNA codons. Therefore, if a tRNA anticodon has a sequence of "Adenine, Uracil, Guanine", it would pair with the mRNA codon with a sequence "uracil, adenine, cytosine".

Compare and contrast the soil in the desert to the soil in the rain forest
Zinaida [17]

Soils of the Tropical Rain forests. Soils here tend to be deep because the warm temperatures and often high rainfall lead to strong weathering of the parent rock to form soil. They tend to be reddish in color because of the way that the iron minerals in them respond to the hot climate. hope this was helpful <3

True or False? Winds always flow from low pressure to high pressure.
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

False

True

True

True

The Coriolis effect describes the pattern of deflection taken by objects not firmly connected to the ground as they travel long distances around Earth.

Explanation:

false because wind flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.

True because It takes less energy to change the temperature of land compared to water.

True because All wind is caused by the uneven heating of Earth's surface.

True because Wind is the horizontal motion of air. ... Therefore, the movement of air is called 'wind.

If a double-stranded segment of DNA has been found to have 23 purines and 15 thymines, how many guanines are there?
Serggg [28]

Answer: 4 Guanines

Explanation: Following Chargaff's ratio that describes the ration of purines to pyrimidines as 1:1, if there are 23 purines, it follows that there should be 23 pyrimidines; 15 Thymines should therefore be hydrogen bonded to 15 Adenines by complementary base pairing.

We are then left with 8 nucleotides composed of guanines and cytosines in complementary base pairs. This means that half that number (4) should be guanines and the rest cytosines.
