Answer:
D. A mutation causing uncontrolled cell division
Explanation:
Cell division is controlled by various mechanisms. Any mutations in the genes regulating the cell division lead to uncontrolled cell division. Loss of control over the process of cell division leads to the formation of tumors.
These tumors may cause cancer if they are transformed into malignant tumors. Hence, a mutation that causes loss of control over cell division is harmful.
Answer:
ZBWCYAX
Explanation:
Equation for the intermediates: Z↔W↔Y↔X
1) B catalyzes the breakdown of Z, therefore inhibiting B leads to the build up of Z.
2) If enzyme C is inactive then the organism will not receive Y to grow, thus Y is a by-product of C.
3) If A is inhibited then W, Y and Z build except for X, thus it make sense that A catalyzes a reaction that leads to X as a by-product.
4) Inhibiting C leads to the reaction toward making Z and W, thus it catalyzes the breakdown of C directly and Z indirectly.
