A disease caused by a mutation in genes that control the cell cycle?
Cancer is a disease that is multiplying using the cell cycle because in the human body the living coditions are good enough for cancer to repopulate...
One disadvantage of a genetic mutation in a human cheek cell is that?
It may result in the production of a defective protein
How does a mutation in a sex cell differ from a mutation in a non- sex cell?
A mutation in a sex cell may be passed on to an offspring. A mutation in a somatic (body) cell cannot be passed on to an offspring, but can potentially cause cancer in the person who has the mutation.
When the cell cycle is not controlled what may result?
Cancer!
What cell mutation can be inherited?
Sickle cell anemia is an example of a cell mutation that can be inherited.
What can result in Cell death or mutation?
Deviation can destroy cell, causing death/mutation.
What is the result is cell division?
mutation
What is the result of abnormal cell division?
mutation
What is a certain genetic mutation in a cell and and result in uncontrolled cell division?
carcinogens
How can aberrations in the cell cycle lead to tumor formation?
The cell cycle is divided up into separate phases (S, G0, G1, M); each point of transition from one phase to another (a checkpoint) is governed by multiple proteins which serve as either "accelerators" or "brakes" for the cell cycle. These proteins are coded by chromosomes (DNA), and it is the mutation in the protein-specific DNA which creates either no protein, overactive protein, or underactive protein. IN any case, it creates a disruption to the cycle, which disturbs orderly cell growth and division. This can lead to cancer.
What does the cell cycle result in?
splitting of the cells
What disease can occur is the cell cycle doesn't happen correctly?
Cancer is a result of a malfunctioning cell cycle.
When control of the cell cycle is lost what results?
Cancer is the result of a cell cycle out of control. Proposals causes tumors quickly. This happens when the cell cycle is out of control
A mutation occurs in an eye cell of a fully grown monkey what will most likely happen to the monkey?
This depends on what kind of mutation occurs. You don't say what the mutation/result of the mutation is, so who knows what will happen to the monkey
How is a mutation harmful to a organism?
Not all mutations are harmful. A mutation the give the organism antibiotic resistance, for example, is quite helpful. A different mutation that causes a necessary protein to misfold may result in death. In general mutations that affect proteins that are necessary for life will result in the death of the organism. One such mutation is in the protein p53 which is necessary to prevent a cell from growing uncontrollable (cancer). A mutation in p53 could result in a cell with damaged DNA to reproduce - this is what we call cancer.
Mutation in DNA often occurs during replication. during which phase of the cell cycle do such mutations occur?
The semiconservative replication of DNA occurs in the S phase or interphase of cell cycle. Mutation too occurs during this phase, whereas growth takes place in G phase.
What will the mutation result in if a point mutation will cause the cell to make an incomplete polypeptide?
An inactive/other active protein as a polypeptide that is incomplete will not fold properly. You could get a deleterious mutation that destroys protein product, such as Huntington's disease, or a paint mutation that, in heterozygous condition, such as sickle cell trait, is beneficial.
