Name some functions of the nucleus?
the main function of the cell is to control gene expression and mediate the replication of DNA during the cell cycle.the nucleus provides a site for genetic transcription that is segregated from the location of translation of cytoplasm , allowing levels of gene regulation that are not available to prokaryotes.
Which of these is a type of post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression?
Post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression can refer to the life of mRNA. You see, mRNA is transcribed into a protein in the cytoplasm, and if the mRNA only stays in the cytoplasm for a short period of time, then only some of the enzymes coded for on the strand can be created. So if the mRNA is programmed to die early, then only some of the proteins will be produced and only some genes will be expressed. It can also refer to the excision of introns and sometimes exons. pre-mRNA is usually edited by proteins to take out the introns, which are basically useless gene sequences (sometimes called junk DNA). Then the mRNA goes on to express the genes it codes for. But if the proteins take out introns and ALSO some exons, then some genes will be removed and not be expressed. This is another type of post-transcriptional gene regulation. Hope this helped!
Can Cancer be genetic?
There are some medical reports that cancer can be passed through your gene lines. But, the research also suggest that it can miss a generation or be completely random in it's activation along the gene line.

What is meant by regulation?
The general noun, regulation, means control by rules. e.g. "Regulation of the pharmaceutical industry ended the craze for using radioactive substances as medicine." However, "a regulation" is a particular rule. In some places it refers to rules created by the civil service which have the force of law although they are not statutes. "A health department regulation forbids the holding of pot luck suppers in public places."
What are some of the characteristics of totalitarian government?
Total control of the military. Total control over means of communication (newspapers, Propaganda, etc.). Control over the economy. Police control with the use of terror as a control tactic.
Central Nervous system operates without conscious control?
Some does, such as regulation of homeostasis and and anti-gravity (balance) muscles. Some isn't (such as concious movement, where you see a pen and decide to pick it up).
What is the smallest thing invented in the world?
Unless you consider designer gene splices to be inventions, the smallest thing I can think of are some of the medical devices such as used in micro-surgery.

Some enzymatic regulation is allosteric?
yes
How might the production of a hormone affect the expression of genes in a eukaryotic cell?
The hormone will migrate to the nucleus and bind to its counter-part-sequence some-where within the chromosomal material, thereby effecting a gene's control sequences which then, in turn, affects the expression of the Gene-in-Question.
What do you do if you have the faulty gene?
If you have a faulty gene, (a gene defect) then every cell in you body has it and possibly all or some of the sex cells you produce will have it too. There is noting really at the moment you can do about this (but gene therapy is a developing science). If you know you have a gene defect, you will have been told this by a qualified medical practitioner (a doctor). You need to ask this doctor to refer you to an expert in the field relating to your condition so that you can be advised how best to live your life and so you know the risks associated with your condition to passing the problem on to your offspring.
