Which statement correctly describes cancer formation?

Biology
1 answer:
AleksandrR [38]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Cancer is formed when there are mutations in a number of genes.

Explanation:

Malignant tumors are gene diseases which do not mean that cancer is necessarily an inherited disease (only in 5-10% of cases the cancer is inherited) because the vast majority of other tumors are the result of somatic, ie secondary, mutations that lead to malignant transformation.

Only 2% of human diseases are monogenic (caused by a change in one gene). The remaining 98% of the disease is either polygenic (caused by a change in several genes at the same time) or epigenetic (caused by non-genetic or post-genetic disorders of cellular molecules).

Scenario 1:
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, this type of genetic engineering should be pursued in order to avoid decrease in death through infections or diseases as well as increase the production of milk and meat of that animals. With this genetic engineering, organisms have high resistance to diseases which decrease the cost of antibiotics. The positive effect of this genetic engineering is the increase in the resistance that leads to good health as well as productivity of organism.

Which of the following is the best example of homeostasis? *
erik [133]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Homeostasis' main job is to keep your body balanced, typically with variable factors such as temperature or enzyme amounts. Your heart rate increases to keep your blood pressure steady while you exercise. This way, you can have a relatively balanced blood pressure as you exhilarate yourself.

a versatile cas12k-based genetic engineering toolkit (c12kget) for metabolic engineering in genetic manipulation-deprived strain
sveta [45]

versatile cas12k-based genetic engineering toolkit (c12kget)

  • Genetic modification of micro-organisms is conducive to the selection of high production producers of high-value-added chemicals, but a deficient  of genetic tools limits the industrialization of most wild species
  • It is very important  to develop host-independent gene editing tools which can be used for genetic modification  deprived strains.
  • A easily found  Cas12k-based genetic engineering toolkit (C12KGET) that can result into genomic integration of small parts up to 10 kb in size with up to 100% efficiency in challenging strains.
  • By using  C12KGET, we accomplished the first example of highly efficient genome editing in Sinorhizobium meliloti, which was successfully solved the question of  that industrial strains are difficult to genetically modify, and increased vitamin B12 production by 25%.
  • Cas12k can be directly used for transcriptional regulation of genes with up to 92% efficiency due to its naturally inactivated nuclease domain
