What DNA mutations are directly linked to inherited diseases?
Some common DNA mutations directly linked to inherited diseases include the CFTR gene mutation in cystic fibrosis, the BRCA gene mutations in breast and ovarian cancers, and the HTT gene mutation in Huntington's disease. These mutations can be inherited from one or both parents and increase the likelihood of developing the associated disease.
What diseases is a cancer?
Cancers are of many kinds and can occur in almost any part of the body. While they involve mutations in normal cells, these mutations are not necessarily inherited, but can be caused by radiation -- even normal background radiation -- or by other causes. Genes. A+

What is a sentence with the word somatic?
Many cancers are somatic mutations.
Mutations disabling key elements of the G1 checkpoint are associated with many cancers?
yes
What are some inherited diseases caused by mutations in genes?
Various forms of cancers are caused due to accumulation of mutations. Some DNA viruses like papilloma, etc. can turn for lysogenic phase and cause cancer. Burkitt's lymphoma is another example (chromosomal aberrations). after cancer has stepped in it causes further mutations.
What is the percentage of skin cancers in NZ?

Mammography finds what percentage of breast cancers?
Mammograms find about 85% to 90% of breast cancers.
What percentage of primary liver cancers are hepatomas?
About 80% to 90% of primary liver cancers are hepatomas.
Will mutations that occur in body cells will always be life threatening to the organism?
Not necessarily. Some produce cancers but many are noncancerous.
