Glycogen synthetase kinase 3 beta is a protein kinase that has been implicated in many types of cancer. Depending on the cell ty

pe, the gene for glycogen synthetase kinase 3 beta (GSK38) can act ether as an oncogene or as a tumor suppressor. Which of the following best predicts how GSK 98 mutations can lead to the development of cancer? A Cells with inactive GSK 38 fail to trigger apoptosis. B Cells with inactive GSK 38 fail to proceed past the G2/M checkpoint. с Cells with overactive GSK 98 are more likely to repair DNA damage. Cells with overactive GSK 38 have longer cell cycles.​

Answer:

A Cells with inactive GSK 38 fail to trigger apoptosis

Explanation:

Apoptosis is defined as the process of programmed death cell. Tumor cells are capable of evading apoptosis, thereby leading to uncontrolled cell proliferation. Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK-3) is a protein kinase that phosphorylates serine and threonine amino acid residues on different substrates, thus activating different signaling pathways and having different biological functions. The GSK-3-mediated phosphorylation on different substrates may lead to the activation or inactivation of apoptosis depending on the cell type. Thus, GSK-3 has a dual activity and functions as a tumor suppressor and oncoprotein.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

III. Condensation of chromosomes begins.

I. Synapsis occurs.

II. Crossing-over is completed.

IV. Separation of homologous chromosomes begins

Explanation:

The prophase I of meiosis I begins with the condensation of chromosomes. The process of compaction makes the individual chromosomes visible and the stage is called leptotene.

Leptotene is followed by zygotene of prophase I during which the homologous chromosomes are paired together. The process is mediated by the synaptonemal complex. As the homologous chromosomes are paired, each pair is visible as a tetrad as each of the chromosomes of a pair has two sister chromatids.

The exchange of part of chromatids occurs during crossing over. Crossing over is the event of the pachytene stage of prophase I. After crossing over, the homologous chromosomes begin to separate from each other during diplotene but stay paired at the points of crossing over. These points are called chiasmata. Diakinesis of prophase I is marked by the dissolution of chiasmata.

tresset_1 [31]

Hello. This question is incomplete. Also, you forgot to show the flowchart. The flowchart is attached below and the full question is:

The flowchart below shows the three generations of a cross between a pea plant that has yellow pods and a pea plant that has green pods. Green pods are the dominant trait. The flowchart is missing the labels that describe the traits.

In which squares should the phrase “Green pods” appear?

1.A and D  2.B and E  3.A,C and D  4.A,B,C,D and E

Answer:

3.A,C and D

Explanation:

As shown in the question above, the flowchart shows the crossing of a pea plant with dominant features (green pods - AA) and a pea plant with recessive features (yellow features - aa). The crossing between plants with AA and aa alleles generates a completely Aa population, which in this case, has the dominant characteristic, that is, it has green pods. This is because the "Aa" alleles are called heterozygous and develop the dominant characteristic.

As we can see in the flowchart, the crossing between the two pea plants generated an offspring that is identified by table C, as we know this offspring has green pods and in the flowchart it is represented by a grayish rectangle. Therefore, we can say that the other gray rectangles represent pea plants with green pods, which are rectangles A, C and D.

Allisa [31]

Answer:

Deserts

Explanation:

Based on the data table, we would expect deserts to have the greatest changes in temperatures during a 24-hour period. There is little water or vegetation containing water in desert areas. The data shows the greatest increase and decrease in temperatures to be in the cups of sand.
