Dr. Bert Vogelstein and his partners study the causes of cancer. In 2017, they published a study of 32 types of cancer. The study concluded that most cancer cases are caused by DNA replication errors. In fact, 66% of the cancer cases they studied were caused by random DNA replication errors. Environmental factors such as diet, sunburns, and smoking caused 29% of the cancers. The last 5% of cancers in the study were caused by inherited factors.

Briefly describe the steps of DNA replication and point out one place in the code where an error can occur.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Error or mistakes during DNA replication is accountable for two-thirds or 66% of the cancer cases. These random and unpredictable errors called mutations that occur during the division of a cell as an error in copying of DNA.

DNA replication has three main steps:

Opening and separation of DNA strands of a helix - carried by an enzyme known as helicase that breaks the hydrogen bonds between nitrogenous bases of the helix of DNA.

The priming of the template strand - DNA primase helps RNA primers to bind to both strands at 3' end as soon as it separated

strat assembling the segments of new DNA on strands called elongation of the strands with help DNA polymerase I and after forming new strands the termination of the replication.

Errors or mistakes can occasionally take place if DNA polymerase inserts a wrong base during elongation of the strands.

Characteristics of the water at the mountain source: Speed: Temperature Oxygen Level Nutrient Level

Answers

Describe the characteristics of the water at the mountain source:

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Speed: there will be faster speed due to the steep slope movement of water from the mountain.

Temperature: there will be lower temperatures as a result of the faster speed of water movement which reduces the influence of solar radiation on it.

Oxygen: the oxygen content is higher due to little or no residue particles present in it.

Nutrient Level: this is considered somewhat low as a result of the water coldness and speed which does not support the nutrition base to form.

If you have 2 of the same substance and they are at the same temperature but have a different amount, what changes?

Answers

Answer:

The heat energy stored within them changes

Explanation:

Heat energy is a function of the mass of a body, its specific heat capacity, and its temperature.

In this case, the bodies have the same specific heat capacity since they are made from the same material and the same temperature.

To get the quantity of heat stored in a body, we need to multiply all three parameters as shown below

[tex]Q = mC \Delta T[/tex]

An increase in mass, through an increase in the amount of substance of a material present, will cause a corresponding increase in the heat energy stored within the material

determine the frequency and wavelength (in nm) of the light emitted when the e- fell from n=4 and n=2

Answers

Answer:

Frequency = 6.16 ×10¹⁴ Hz

λ = 4.87×10² nm

Explanation:

In case of hydrogen atom energy associated with nth state is,

En =  -13.6/n²

For n = 2

E₂ = -13.6 / 2²

E₂ = -13.6/4

E₂ = -3.4 ev

Kinetic energy of electron = -E₂ = 3.4 ev

For n = 4

E₄ = -13.6 / 4²

E₄ = -13.6/16

E₄ = -0.85 ev

Kinetic energy of electron = -E₄ = 0.85 ev

Wavelength of radiation emitted:

E = hc/λ = E₄ - E₂

hc/λ = E₄ - E₂

by putting values,

6.63×10⁻³⁴Js × 3×10⁸m/s / λ = -0.85ev   - (-3.4ev )

6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js× 3×10⁸m/s / λ = 2.55 ev

λ = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js× 3×10⁸m/s  /2.55ev

λ = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js× 3×10⁸m/s  /2.55× 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ J

λ = 19.89 ×10⁻²⁶ Jm / 2.55× 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ J

λ = 19.89 ×10⁻²⁶ Jm / 4.08×10⁻¹⁹ J

λ = 4.87×10⁻⁷ m

m to nm:

4.87×10⁻⁷ m ×10⁹nm/1 m

4.87×10² nm

Frequency:

Frequency = speed of electron / wavelength

by putting values,

Frequency = 3×10⁸m/s /4.87×10⁻⁷ m

Frequency = 6.16 ×10¹⁴ s⁻¹

s⁻¹ = Hz

Frequency = 6.16 ×10¹⁴ Hz

How many grams are there in a 14.5 moles lithium permanganate

Answers

There are 1825.6 g in a 14.5 moles Lithium permanganate

Further explanation

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

Moles can also be determined from the amount of substance mass and its molar mass :

[tex]\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}[/tex]

moles of Lithium permanganate = 14.5

Lithium permanganate (LiMnO4) MW=125.9 g/mol, so mass :

[tex]\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=14.5\times 125.9~g/mol\\\\mass=1825.6~g[/tex]

Imagine that you have an ideal gas in a 4.30 L container, and that 1250 molecules of this gas collide with a square-inch area of the container at any given instant. If the volume is increased to 21.5 L at constant temperature, how many collisions will occur per square inch of this larger container

Answers

Answer:

250 collisions per square inch

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperatures, the pressure exerted by gas molecules is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas. Hence;

    P1V1 = P2V2 where P1 = initial pressure, V1 = initial volume, P2 = final pressure, and V2 = final volume

In this case, the collision that occurred is taken as the pressure.

P1 = 1250, V1 = 4.30 , V2 = 21.5 P2 = ?

P2 = P1V1/V2

        = 1250 x 4.30/21.5

                 = 250

Hence, at a constant temperature, 250 collisions per square inch of the larger container will occur.

Answer:

V = 44.83 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of nitrogen gas = ?

Number of moles = 2.0 mol

Temperature = 0°C

Pressure = 1atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

Answers

His distance and displacement are the same, which was 400 m

Further explanation

Given

Distance = 400 m

time = 2 min

Required

Distance and displacement

Solution

Distance is a scalar quantity that indicates the length of the trajectory that is traveled by an object within a certain interval. Distance has no direction, only has magnitude  

Can be simplified distance = totals traveled  

Displacement is a vector quantity that shows changes in the position of objects in a certain interval of time. Displacement has magnitude and direction  

Can be simplified displacement = distanced traveled from starting point to ending point  

From the definition above shows that the displacement and the distance that he traveled have the same value (magnitude), which is equal to 400 m

The value of the two will be different if he starts and finishes at the same point, then the displacement value is zero while the distance he has traveled is still 0

But they could hold water in their pores. We can say then that both or them ARE ___________________ but NOT __________________________________.

Answers

Answer:

Clay and Pumice can both be said to be Porous but they are not Permeable

Explanation:

A porous substance is one which have pores in in through which air or liquid can pass through. Both clay and pumice are porous due to the presence of pores in them. These pores allow air to pass through them. However, since the pores are not well connected water do no pass through them. As a result, clay vessels can hold water within them and pumice floats on water.

Permeability is the ability of a substance to allow other substances to pass through. Both clay and pumice have low permeability, as a result they do not allow water to pass through them. Rather, water runs over their surface when poured over them.

Calculate the total pressure in a mixture of 8 g of dioxygen and 4 g of dihydrogen confined in a vessel of 1 dm8 at 27 ∘C. (R = 0.083 bar dm8 K−1 mol−1​

Answers

Answer:

Total pressure =  56.77 bar

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of dioxygen = 8 g

Mass of dihydrogen = 4 g

Volume of vessel = 1 dm³

Temperature = 27°C (27+273 = 300 K)

R = 0.083 bar.dm³ / mol.K

Total pressure = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of dioxygen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 8 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.25 mol

Pressure of dioxygen:

PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

P = 0.25 mol × 0.083 bar.dm³ / mol.K × 300 K / 1 dm³

P = 6.97 bar.dm³  /1 dm³

P = 6.97 bar

Number of moles of dihydrogen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 4 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles = 2 mol

Pressure of dihydrogen:

PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

P = 2 mol × 0.083 bar.dm³ / mol.K × 300 K / 1 dm³

P = 49.8 bar.dm³  /1 dm³

P = 49.8 bar

Total pressure of mixture in a vessel:

Total pressure = P (O₂) + P(H₂)

Total pressure =  6.97 bar + 49.8 bar

Total pressure =  56.77 bar
