Will a mutation in a human skin cell pass on to the persons offspring?
If you are referring to a mutation in individual cells of the skin, then no.
If a woman has a skin cancer gene could she pass this skin cancer to her children?
yes if anyone has genes of skin cancer it could be passed down to more family members. i had the same question because im doing a project on skin cancer.
How can a mutation in a human skin cell be passed on to the person's offspring?
It can't. A new mutation in a somatic cell will not influence the genetic composition of the progeny except in cases where the mutation affects the carrying out of reproduction. This is because the gametes (ova or sperm) only come from the reproductive tissue (ovaries, seminiferous tubule in the testes). we need something a 6th 7th and 8th graders teachers will believe we did ourselves please from me the person who thinks
If a woman developed skin cancer as result of a mutated gene in the skin cells of her arms could she pass skin cancer gene to her children justify your answer?
Skin cancer that arises from mutations in skin cells, such as those caused by UV exposure, is typically not hereditary and therefore cannot be passed to children. This is because these mutations occur in somatic cells, which are not involved in reproduction. However, if the woman has a hereditary genetic mutation linked to a higher risk of skin cancer—such as in genes like BRCA1 or BRCA2—then she could potentially pass that genetic predisposition to her children. In this case, while the specific skin cancer may not be inherited, the increased susceptibility to developing certain cancers could be passed on.
How does depletion of the ozone layer cause skin cancer?
As the ozone layer dissipates due to pollution of the air, it allows harmful UV rays to pass onto the Earth, which greatly increases your risk for skin cancer.
How do Parents pass their traits to their offspring?
No. Traits developed during a parents life time are acclamations to the immediate environment and are not heritable. Only mutations in the germ line, recombination in the germ line are heritable.
What are traits that offspring receve from their parents?
eye colour, hair colour, blood type, skin colour, and much much more
What is the scientific name for skin cancer?
Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer
Does Lil' Wayne have skin cancer?
It is said that Lil Wayne does have skin cancer.
Can skin cancer have hair growing out of it?
No, skin cancer does not have hair growing out of it. Skin cancer typically appears as abnormal growths or changes on the skin, and hair growth is not a characteristic feature of skin cancer.
What is the dependent variable of skin cancer?
the temp.intering into your skin and starts the skin cancer
What are some characteristics that can be passed on from parents to young, what are some that cannot be passed on?
Parents pass characteristics such as hair color, nose shape, and skin color to their offspring. Not all of the parents' characteristics will appear in the offspring, but the characteristics that are more likely to appear can be predicted. Examples of non-inherited traits include table manners, greeting customs, a preference for certain types of foods, and parenting skills.
