How would a disease that damages the mitochondria most directly affect the functioning of cells?
Mitochondria convert glucose, lipids, and proteins into ATP, which can then be used tocellular work, by oxidizing them. Without them, energy could not be stored in the cells, and the cell would not be able to perform crucial tasks because there would be no fuel with which to conduct work.
What happens when glutamate is replaced by valine?
sickle cell disease will result
What disease can occur is the cell cycle doesn't happen correctly?
Cancer is a result of a malfunctioning cell cycle.
What is the human disease that results from problems in the transport of molecules across the cell membrane?
n
Is sickle-cell disease a result of a translocation?
No. It arises due to point mutations (like A -> T).
Why sickle cell is healthy?
It isn't, it's a disease. It can cause different problems and may kill people.
What might be a result of a disease that causes thickened plasma membrane?
Decreased movement of molecules entering the cell
What is the result of change in amino acid in hemoglobin?
Of course, there can be many outcomes from no problems to sickle cell disease to fetal death. Some mutations really cause no problems, some can cause a disease and some are so damaging it can cause the death of the unborn child.
Can problems all the way down at the nuclear level of a cell have effects inside the cell?
Yes, because the DNA inside the nucleus controls the cells activities. Problems at the nuclear level could result in the cell becoming cancerous.
Does marijuana lower a man's sperm cell count?
Yes weed kills off a lot of sperm cells, and damages and diseases some, which can result in a STD.
A change in one nucleotide produces a different form of hemoglobin in some people. Which conditions result from this change?
Sickle cell disease
What are the different types of sickle cell disease and how do they differ from each other?
There are several types of sickle cell disease, including sickle cell anemia, sickle beta thalassemia, and sickle cell-hemoglobin C disease. These types differ based on the specific genetic mutations that affect the hemoglobin protein in red blood cells. Sickle cell anemia is the most common and severe form, where individuals have two copies of the sickle cell gene. Sickle beta thalassemia and sickle cell-hemoglobin C disease are milder forms that result from different combinations of genetic mutations. Symptoms and complications can vary among the different types of sickle cell disease.
