Most cells that experience mutations or damage _________. Select one: a. become cancer b. undergo apoptosis c. become a malignant tumor d. undergo metastasis

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A. Become cancer because in the process of mitosis (cell replication) idlf the cell replication does not work properly and keep going on and on it will begin creating mutations to help it replicate causing cancer to happen.
Ex: let's say you have a paper cut. Your blood cells must replicate in order to close that gap in your body. They begin replication but if they get out of control and begin creating mutations it will turn into cancer.

Name three causes of food poisoning apart from bacteria.

Answers

Answer:

causes of food poisoning apart from bacteria include viruses, parasites and harmful chemical substance.

Explanation:

causes of food poisoning are

a) Viruses:These are very tiny germs made up of genetic material inside a protein coating

common virus that cause food poisoning is

norovirus and hepatitis A.

b). Bacteria:These are tiny organisms that can cause disease or infection. Bacteria that cause food poisoning include salmonella, Escherichia coli,and campylobacter.

c). Parasite are tiny organisms that live inside other organisms. Parasite can enter the body through food or water. Example of parasite that cause food poisoning is Gardia.

d) Harmful chemical: These maybe present in certain foods including fish, certain types of mushrooms and unwashed produce that contains large amount of certain pesticides

The muscles control decreasing pupil size in response to brighter light levels

Answers

Final answer:

The sphincter pupillae muscle controls decreasing pupil size in response to brighter light levels. This action protects the eye from potential damage. The process is involuntary and controlled by the autonomic nervous system.

Explanation:

The pupil size in our eyes is controlled by two muscles: the sphincter pupillae and the dilator pupillae. When we are exposed to brighter light levels, the sphincter pupillae muscle contracts, which causes the pupil to decrease in size. This acts as a protective mechanism to prevent too much light from entering the eye and possibly causing damage.

The functioning of these muscles are involuntary and controlled by the autonomic nervous system. In contrast, in lower light levels, the dilator pupillae muscle would contract to increase pupil size and allow more light in for improved vision.

The statement is correct, the muscles control decreasing pupil size in response to brighter light levels.

Your eye's retina converts light into nerve impulses that travel down the optic nerve. The muscles that regulate the size of the pupil get some of these nerve signals from the optic nerve.

A DNA template is composed of the following nucleotide sequence: 5'-TACGCATT-3' What is the mRNA transcript for this template?A. 5'-TTACGCAT-3'
B. 5'-AAUGCGUA-3'
C. 5'-UACGCAUU-3'
D. 5'-AATGCGTA-3'
E. 5'-AUGCGUAA-3'

Answers

Answer:

E. 5'-AUGCGUAA-3'

Explanation:

The nucleotide sequence of the template strand specifies the nucleotide sequence of mRNA. Adenine in template strand pairs with uracil base in mRNA, thymine with adenine, guanine with cytosine and cytosine with guanine base. Also, the polarity of the DNA template strand and that of the mRNA is anti-parallel which means that 3' end of the template strand is present opposite to the 5' end of the mRNA. Therefore, a DNA template strand with nucleotide sequence 5'-TACGCATT-3'  would code for the following mRNA:

DNA template strand: 5'-TACGCATT-3'  

mRNA strand:               3'-AUGCGUAA-5'

Sometimes new information results in minor changes to a theory. But sometimes new information results in a theory being discarded as incorrect. An example of an incorrect theory that was disproved by the discovery of new information isPtolemy’s theory of the solar system.
the original cell theory.
the germ theory.
plate tectonic theory.

Answers

An example of an incorrect theory that was disproved by the discovery of new information is Ptolemy’s theory of the solar system. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option. Ptolemy’s theory stated that the earth is the center of the universe. I hope it helped you.

The Ptolemy's theory of the solar system was disproved by the discovery of the new information. The Ptolemy's theory stated that the Earth is at the center of the solar system and all the planets, suns and stars orbited around it while the Earth stayed completely stationary. However, this theory was proven to be false as the sun-centeric model of the solar system better explained various phenomenon, such as the particular movement of the planets.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Ptolemy's theory of the solar system'.

Before the Ordovician-Silurian extinction, the diversity of life on Earth was growing enormously due to _____.shallow, warm, continental seas
cold, glaciated oceans
unknown reasons
comets hitting the earth

Answers

The answer is shallow, warm, continental seas.

The Ordovician-Silurian extinction happened about 450-430 million years ago. Before the extinction, most multicellular organisms lived in the seas. It was a rich life in shallow, warm, and continental seas. The climate was favorable. Reef-forming corals, as well as the first true vertebrates, some fish, appeared. Trilobites and mollusks were diverse and rich. Green algae were common in the seas.
