What else can I help you with?
What are problems associated with using radioactive materials for medical purposes?
cell mutations
Why do nuclear explosions mutate you?
because of the radiation If you got a high enough dose to get significant mutations, you got a high enough dose to die in several weeks. No medical treatment could save you. Mutations gone.
Mutations disabling key elements of the G1 checkpoint are associated with many cancers?
yes
Difference between associated gas and non associated gas?
Natural gas some light liquids such as propane and butane. For this reason associated gas is sometimes called "wet gas." There are also reservoirs that contain gas and no oil. This gas is termed non associated gas. Non associated gas, coming from reservoirs that are not connected with any known source of liquid petroleum, is "dry gas."
What type of leukemia is associated with Down syndrome?
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) and Down Syndrome both have been associated with mutations in the JAK2 gene.
What does a carcinogen form that gives a person cancer?
It doesnt form anything. What it does is increase your chance of getting mutations within your DNA. And if enough mutations are aquired, then cancer can happen.
What mutations does beta-thalassemia have on DNA?
Beta-thalassemia is typically caused by mutations in the HBB gene located on chromosome 11. Common mutations include point mutations, deletions, or insertions in the HBB gene, leading to reduced or absent production of beta-globin chains in hemoglobin. These mutations disrupt the normal structure and function of hemoglobin, resulting in anemia and other symptoms associated with beta-thalassemia.
What type of mutation cause glaucoma?
Glaucoma is associated with mutations in several different genes: MYOC, ASB10, WDR36, NTF4, TBK1, OPA1 and OPTN. But most cases of glaucoma do not involve any genetic mutations.
What cause the car to sound like its not getting enough gas?
Not getting enough gas.
Is there a cancer susceptibility gene found for colon cancer?
Yes, there are several forms of familial colon cancer. Several mutations are associated with multiple colon polyps that can be diagnosed with a colonoscopy. This trait is called "Familial adenomatous polyposis". Other mutations are not associated with polyps; the trait is called "hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer".
How are sex linked mutations and gene mutations alike how are they different?
Sex-linked mutations and gene mutations are alike in that both involve changes to the DNA sequence that can affect an organism's traits or functions. However, they differ in their location and inheritance patterns: sex-linked mutations occur on the sex chromosomes (X or Y), typically affecting traits associated with gender, while gene mutations can occur on any chromosome and affect a wide range of traits regardless of sex. Additionally, sex-linked mutations are often passed down differently in males and females due to their association with sex chromosomes.
Is it true mutations can only occur during interphase?
Mutations can occur at any time during the cell cycle, but they are most commonly associated with interphase when DNA is being replicated. During DNA replication in the S phase of interphase, errors can happen, leading to mutations. Additionally, exposure to mutagens or DNA damage can cause mutations during other phases of the cell cycle, including mitosis. Therefore, while interphase is a key time for mutations, it is not the only phase where they can occur.
