What is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncogenes? hints what is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncog

enes? both are involved in arresting the cell cycle. oncogenes are mutant forms of proto-oncogenes. oncogenes are versions of proto-oncogenes that have been permanently switched off. both must be activated to halt cell division?

Oncogenes result from turning on, or activating proto oncogenes. Proto oncogenes are genes that code for positive cell cycle regulators, so proto oncogenes code for proteins that turn on cell division. Proto oncogenes are normal genes, but when they are mutated, they become oncogenes.  Oncogenes are expressed too much, which makes them  turn on cell division too much, which is cancer.

Species a diverged from species b 60,000 years ago. On a particular gene, they have 15 nucleotide differences. How many nucleoti
a_sh-v [17]

The given question says that b species diverged around 60,000 year ago from species a. Since the divergence, they have a nucleotide difference of 15 nucleotide.

We need to find out the nucleotide difference in another 240,000 year, which means a total of 300,000 year since divergence.

The nucleotide difference in 60,000 years = 15 nucleotide.

The nucleotide difference in 1 year =\frac{15}{60,000}  nucleotide.

The nucleotide difference in 300,000 years = \frac{15}{60,000}\times 300,000 nucleotide.

The nucleotide difference in 300,000 years = 75 nucleotide.

Hence, after another 240,000 years or 300,000 years since divergence, the species and species b would show a difference of 75 nucleotide.

In another 240,000 years, there would be 60 nucleotide difference, as 15 of the nucleotide are already different in initial 60,000 years from the total of 75 nucleotide difference in 300,000 years. So, 60 (75-15) nucleotide difference would be observed in next 240,000 years.

Mass Extinctions May Have Been Caused By Meteors
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Yes, Mass Extinctions May Have Been Caused By Meteors, as the probability of mass extinction occurring after an asteroid that could hit a random location on the Earth's surface was approximately 13% when the Chicxulub-scale asteroid hit the Earth. 

Soot could be the main cause of mass extinction after an asteroid impact.
