As more is learned about cancer, it has become clear that cancer, with few exceptions, ________. Group of answer choices is only dependent on the inherited genetics is a result of genetics and environmental factors is 100% dependent on inherited genetics has no genetic basis
Answer: Is a result of genetics and environmental factors.
Explanation:
Cancer is the common name for a group of diseases in which there is a division of the body's cells, whose growth exceeds that of normal tissues and which persists in the same excessive manner. It can begin in a localized manner and spread to other surrounding tissues and its malignancy is very variable, according to the aggressiveness of its cells and other biological characteristics of each type of tumor. In general, the behavior of cancer cells is characterized by lacking the reproductive control required by their original function, acquiring the capacity to invade tissues (metastasis), spreading through the organism via the lymphatic or circulatory system, and causing the growth of new tumors in other parts of the body.
A gene is a hereditary unit composed of DNA that carries the instructions for producing proteins, which do much of the work in our cells. Certain genetic alterations can cause cells to evade growth controls and become cancerous cells. These changes can be inherited from our parents if the changes are present in the germ cells (eggs and sperm) and they are called germline changes. In addition, cancer-causing genetic changes can also be acquired during a person's lifetime (somatic or acquired changes), as a result of DNA errors that occur when cells divide either spontaneously or by exposure to carcinogenic substances that damage DNA (environmental factors), such as certain chemicals in tobacco smoke, or radiation, such as ultraviolet rays from the sun. These substances damage DNA, acting as mutagens.
Sometimes, the changes are not in the DNA sequence. For example, the epigenetic modifications are the presence of chemical marks in DNA which can determine if the gene is expressed. This means, whether and how much messenger RNA is produced, because the messenger RNA is translated into proteins.
So, cancer cells have genetic changes compared to normal cells. These changes are due to mutations that can be inherited, acquired spontaneously during life, or acquired due to environmental factors such as sun exposure, smoking, and other factors. In addition, the fact that a person has the cancer-related mutation does not necessarily mean that he or she will develop the disease during his or her lifetime. In some cases, even if they have this genetic vulnerability, they remain healthy, because cancer is a multifactorial disease that depends on many factors, such as the immune system, nutrition and certainly many others currently unknown to medicine.

Explanation:
According to the ESRT, the rate of temperature increases below the Earth's surface is greatest between depths of
Answer:
Between depths of tectonic plate boundaries and the outer core.
Explanation:
The rate of temperature increases below the Earth's surface is greatest between depths of tectonic plate boundaries and the outer core. At the depth, some of the heat comes from the Earth's core while most of the heat comes from decay of radioactive elements, mainly uranium, thorium and potassium that is located in rocks of the crust. So we can say that the the increase in temperature with depth varies with the chemical composition and age of the rocks.

One gene pair can influence other gene pairs, with their combined activities producing some effect on phenotype; this called ________________. In Labrador retrievers, one gene pair codes for the quantity of melanin produced while another codes for melanin deposition. Still another gene locus determines whether melanin will be produced at all--lack of any produces an albino (recessive).
Answer:
Epistasis
Explanation:
Genetics can be defined as the scientific study of hereditary in living organisms such as humans, animals and plants
In Genetics, a gene pair has the ability to influence other gene pairs based on their combined activities which produces some effect on phenotype; this is called epistasis.
A man is brachydactylous (very short fingers; rare autosomal dominant), and his wife is not. Both can taste the chemical phenylthiocarbamide (autosomal dominant; common allele), but their mothers could not. Give the genotypes of the couple. If the genes assort independently and the couple has four children, what is the probability of all of them being brachydactylous
Answer:
The correct answer is -
A) BbTt x bbTt
B) .5^4 or 1/16 or 0.0625
Explanation:
As it is given that Brachydactylus and PTC tasters both traits are autosomal dominant conditions which mean only one allele would be enough.
For Branchydactylus and For tasting : man and women will be heterogeneous.
Hence,
The Genotype of man = BbTt
The Genotype of wife = bbTt
b. Answer = 0.0625
For Branchydactylus:
Bb X bb
Possible genotypes:
B b
b Bb( Brachydactylus) bb(normal)
b Bb (Brachydactylus) bb (normal)
The probability of a single child being Branchydactylus = 2/4 = 0.5
So, Probability of all 4 child being Branchydactylus = .5 x .5 x .5 x .5 = 0.0625

Observe and record the seeds, roots, stems, leaves, flowers of mustard and maize plants and the difference in propertiesCheck it out
Answer:
Maize is monocot and fibrous roots whereas mustard is dicot and tap roots system.
Explanation:
The main difference between maize plant and mustard plants is that Maize is a monocot plant means only one cotyledon in their seed whereas Mustard are dicot which means having two cotyledons. Maize plant has a fibrous root system whereas mustard plant has tap root system. The leaves pf maize plant have parallel venation while on the other hand, the leaves of mustard having reticulate venation. The seeds of maize is bigger in size as compared mustard seed.

1. Explain using diagram how monomers are arranged in Thermoplastic and Thermosettingplastics.
Explanation:
In thermoplastics, the arrangement of monomeric units is linear and in thermosetting plastics, it is cross-linked. Thermoplastics are usually soft, weak and less brittle, so can get soften on heating and stiffen on cooling. They can be melted, remoulded and recycled easily.

Assume that you are a genetic counselor and that a couple seeks genetic counseling from you. Both the man and the woman are phenotypically normal, but the woman is heterozygous for a pericentric inversion on chromosome 8. The man is karyotypically normal. What is the probability that this couple will produce a child with a genetic syndrome as the result of crossing over within the pericentric inversion
Answer:
50%
Explanation:
An inversion is a genetic phenomenon that occurs when a chromosome breaks into two genomic sites, thereby the resulting DNA fragment is reversed and subsequently inserted into the same chromosome location. A pericentric inversion occurs when the chromosome breaks are located on opposite arms or sides of the chromosomal centromere. Moreover, crossing over (or recombination) is the exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids during gamete production. An inversion carrier, as in this case the woman who is heterozygous for a pericentric inversion, can produce four types of gametes. If there is no crossing over, half the chromatids will produce normal gametes (without the recombination event) and half the chromatids will produce balanced gametes that will transmit the pericentric inverted chromosome. On the other hand, if there is crossing over, half the chromatids will have one duplication on the first chromosome arm together with a deletion on the second chromosome arm, and the remaining half of the chromatids will have an inverse arrangement.

How do organisms in the rainforest compete for biotic and abiotic factors? (Emergent layer, canopy layer, understory, forest floor?) In the ecosystem. Giving brainliest.
Organisms in the rainforest compete for biotic and abiotic factor by using resources that are available in the surrounding environment.
Competition occurs when the resources are available in scarce or limited amount. When there is an abundant amount of resources, there is no competition between organisms. The organism which is stronger than other organism can use more resources i.e. water, food and space etc and increase its population.
Those organisms which feed on similar food and other resources can compete with each other and the stronger organism will use the resources in large amount.
