How is cancer related to mutations? How is it related to the cell cycle?

Answers

Answer:

Cancer is related to the cell cycle bc, cancer cells mutate. Cancer is unchecked cell growth. Mutations in genes can cause cancer by making cell division rates go up faster or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death. As a mass of cancerous cells grows, it can develop into a tumor

Explanation:

hope this helps, good luck!! :)

Well cancer causes uncontrolled cell division so the part of the cell cycle that instructs the cells to stop replicating is missing or dysfunctional. Therefore cytokinesis keeps occurring and the cytoplasm keeps dividing due to a mutation in the gene of the cell

Transcription uses one of the two exposed DNA strands as a template; this strand is called the template strand. The RNA product is complementary to the template strand and is almost identical to the other DNA strand, called the nontemplate (or coding) strand.

What cell structure is responsible for regulating all cellular activities?
Choose 1 answer:


A. Nucleus

B. Mitochondria

C. Lysosome

D. Golgi body

Answers

Answer:

Let me know if this is right Answer: Nucleus

Explanation:

This organelle known as the Nucleus has two major functions: it stores the cell's hereditary material, or DNA, and it coordinates the cell's activities, which include growth, intermediary metabolism, protein synthesis, and reproduction (cell division). Only the cells of advanced organisms, known as eukaryotes, have a nucleus.

Answer:

Lysosome

Explanation:

The lysosome is the cell’s recycling center. These organelles are spheres full of enzymes ready to hydrolyze, (chop up the chemical bonds of) whatever substance crosses the membrane, so the cell can reuse the raw material. These disposal enzymes only function properly in environments with a pH level of 5, two orders of magnitude more acidic than the cell’s internal pH level of 7. Lysosomal proteins only being active in an acidic environment acts as safety mechanism for the rest of the cell - if the lysosome were to somehow leak or burst, the degradative enzymes would inactivate before they chopped up proteins the cell still needed.

Are the finches that Charles Darwin studied on the Galápagos Islands an example of divergent evolution or convergent evolution? Give two point to explain your thinking.

Answers

Answer:

shark are slow evolving species because of lower gene flow and rate if reproduction.

Darwin finches undergo divergent evolution

Explanation:

Sharks have evolved slowly because of following reasons –  

a) Lower rate of reproduction  

b) Restricted gene flow because of isolated habitat such as stretches of deep water

c) Staying close to the eggs and hence guarding them throughout their life thereby allowing no cross mating.  

d) Lower  rate of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) evolution  

Darwin’s finches show divergent evolution as different species of finches originated from a common ancestors. The beak size of finches vary form one species to other because of different diet habits

We interviewed 3 students about what they thought were the reasons for the change in Guppy population and this is what they said:

● Lauren says the change was caused by a change in the environment.
● Megan thinks both Norise and Lauren are correct.
Who do you think is right? Explain what happened to the guppies over many generations.
Use multiple pieces of evidence of the notes in your answer to receive full credit.
Answer:

Answers

Answer:

Megan is right.

Explanation:

The guppy is a very adaptable freshwater fish, commonly found in aquariums world wide. The success of the guppy is mostly due to its ability to adapt to the changes in its environment. Guppies were originally found in the southern american continents and the Caribbean island, but has been exported all over the world, first as a means of curbing the spread of mosquitoes by feeding on the larvae and then as a pet. Over time, guppies have found themselves in diverse environment, and some have undergone mutation of body parts just to adapt. So, the need for adaptation to their constantly changing environment has led to mutation in the guppies.
