If a mutation occurs in a somatic cell how is it transmitted?

Mutations occurring in somatic cells are not transmitted to offspring because they only affect the individual in which they occur. These mutations are not present in the germline cells (sperm or egg cells) and therefore cannot be passed on to future generations.


What is Todd's paralysis?

Todd's paralysis, also known as postictal paralysis, is a temporary weakness or paralysis that occurs after a seizure.

What metabolic activity in plants produces sugars?

Photosynthesis is the metabolic activity in plants that produces sugars. During photosynthesis, plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. This process occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells.


How does allosteric inhibition differ from competitive inhibition in terms of their mechanisms of action on enzymes?

Allosteric inhibition and competitive inhibition are two ways enzymes can be regulated. Allosteric inhibition occurs when a molecule binds to a site on the enzyme that is not the active site, causing a change in the enzyme's shape and reducing its activity. Competitive inhibition, on the other hand, occurs when a molecule binds to the active site of the enzyme, blocking the substrate from binding and inhibiting the enzyme's activity. In summary, allosteric inhibition affects enzyme activity by binding to a site other than the active site, while competitive inhibition affects enzyme activity by binding to the active site directly.


What is a disease that occurs continuously in a particular region but has low mortality?

Dengue fever is a disease that occurs continuously in specific regions but typically has low mortality rates. It is transmitted by mosquitoes and symptoms include high fever, severe headache, joint and muscle pain, and rash. While most cases result in full recovery, severe cases can be life-threatening.

Can a man give a woman gardnerella?

What can cause a seizure?

Some things may trigger a seizure, but on the other hand, seizures may be a natural "mal-function" of the brain. Pictures on a TV screen can trigger a seizure or being overwhelmed can trigger a seizure. It is known that some people can reduce or completely stop their seizures with meditation and removing the negative things in your everyday life.

Is it possible for someone to die from a petit mal seizure?

It is very rare for someone to die directly from a petit mal seizure. Petit mal seizures are typically brief and do not result in physical harm or complications that could lead to death. However, if a petit mal seizure occurs in a dangerous situation, such as while swimming or driving, there is a risk of harm or death from accidents related to the seizure.


Why did my son's eyes roll back in his head 6 times for 1second each time playing with a flashing light toy with a song?

Some partial seizures are associated with an altered level of consciousness, even though the person might appear to be awake and his or her eyes may be open. In this type of seizure, called a complex partial seizure, the affected person is unaware of the people nearby during the event, is not aware of his or her own movements or behaviors during the seizure, and does not remember the seizure after it occurs. When the person having a partial seizure is aware of having a seizure, is aware of his or her surroundings and remembers the event afterward, the seizure is classified as a simple partial seizure.
