What are mitochondrial myopathies?
a group of neuromuscular disorders that result from defects in the function of the mitochondrion, a small organelle located inside many cells that are responsible for fulfilling energy requirements of the tissue
Mutations in mitochondrial genes often cause disorders that affect cells?
Mitochondrial gene mutations can disrupt the energy production process in cells, leading to various disorders. These disorders can affect tissues with high energy demands, such as the brain, muscles, and heart. Symptoms can vary widely depending on which cells are impacted and the severity of the mutation.
What are some congenital conditions classed as congenital myopathies?
Congenital myopathies are a group of myopathies, usually present from birth, that display structural changes in the skeletal muscles. The list of diseases defined as congenital myopathies varies.
How do mutations relate to traits?
Mutations cause certain traits.
Underlying cause of the cellular effects of aging?
There are seven primary causes of aging. They are cell loss, nuclear mutations and epimutations, mitochondrial mutations, extracellular junk, intracellular junk, cellular senescence, and extracellular cross-links.
What types of external stimuli cause mutations?
While this question should be recategorized because external stimuli do not cause the mutations that result in hemophilia, there are many types of radiation that can cause gene mutations as well as chemical exposure. For example sun light is UV light radiation wich can cause mutations (for example the mutations that result in skin cancer).
What are some things that can cause those mutations that cause cancer?
Many herbicides and pesticides hit the nuclear material and cause mutations when used to protect crop plants. Apart from causing mutations these very chemicals are carcinogenic in nature and cause cancer.
How do mutations cause genetic disorder?
it cause every cell
What is an example of what a mutation can cause?
Mutations can cause diseases such as cancer
What are cancer mutations?
Some mutations cause cells to lose control over cell division
What cell cause mutations?
DNA polymerase
What is something in the environment that may cause mutations?
you!
