How do mutagens damage DNA?

Biology
1 answer:
nikklg [1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Some mutagens strip DNA nucleotides (bases) of essential modifications—for example, they deaminate the bases—such that these bases resemble different nucleotides and confuse the DNA replication machinery. Subsequent rounds of DNA replication then permanently incorporate such changes.

Why is it impossible for male calico cats to exist
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

genetics

Explanation:

calico cats must also inherit a gene unrelated to the X and Y chromosomes that codes for white fur. Because male cats have one X chromosome with code for black or orange and one Y chromosome with no color genes, they cannot technically be calico. About one in every 3,000 calico cats is born a male, and, unfortunately, don't live as long as female calicos due to their genetic abnormalities. XXY Syndrome renders male calicos sterile and can be the root cause of many other health problems

The wechsler intelligence scale for children (wisc) is a good indicator of innate "genetic" ability for:
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The wechsler intelligence scale for children (WISC) is a good indicator of innate "genetic" ability for children of six to sixteen years old.

Explanation:

Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) is basically a system of testing IQ of children from six to sixteen years old. This testing was created by David Wechsler, who stated that intelligence is a global quality and it should be reflected in children's verbal as well as non-verbal abilities.

This testing system is used by schools for several purposes:


• To evaluate the performance of kids during placement process.  

• It is also used to evaluate abilities of dis-abled children or  deferentially able children.

• IQ scores from WISC can be used to diagnose the problems of the children such as mental re-tardation or some specific learning dis-ability. It can also be used to determine the problems of the children who face hyperactivity or attention deficiency.


• In addition, the test can also diagnose brain related and neuro-psychological disorder.


Point to remember:

The WISC system is not useful to determine the extreme form of intelligence like IQ below 40 and above 160. Wechsler himself focused on this point many times that test is not adequate for children with IQs of below 70 or above 130. Despite of this fact, people use this test to determine the intelligence of deferentially able children who usually have IQ above 130 that is not very appropriate thing.
