Explain how an unbalanced translocation occurs and how it affects humans

Biology
1 answer:
Serga [27]2 years ago
6 0
Translocations may be balanced when there is an even exchange of material with no genetic information extra or missing, and ideally full functionality. Or can be unbalanced where the exchange of chromosome material is unequal resulting in extra or missing genes. For example a child who has an unbalanced translocation may have learning disabilities, developmental delay and health problems. The seriousness of the disability depends on exactly which parts of which chromosomes are involved and how much missing or extra chromosome material present.

How might a mutation cause a beneficial change in a phenotype of an organism? (give an example)​
Maurinko [17]

The physical appearance of the biochemical characteristic of an organism as result of the interaction of phenotype; some mutation has the positive effect on the organism in which they occur.

<u>Explanation:</u>

They are called beneficial mutation. Phenotype of the organism lead to new development of proteins which help the organisms to adopt their own environment. Beneficial mutation are essential for evaluation to occur.

Phenotype stretch the DNA without any function; the mutations occur in a protein coating region, but it end up the process by not affecting sequence of the protein.

Example of phenotype are:

Observable characteristics including behaviour, biochemical properties; the phenotype benefits such as HIV resistance, lactose resistance.

Check all of the statements that are true regarding keratinized stratified squamous epithelium.
strojnjashka [21]

Answer;

-Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium forms the epidermis of the skin.

-In keratinized stratified squamous epithelial tissue, the cells on the apical (outer) surface are dead.

Explanation;

-Stratified squamous epithelium is a type of tissue found covering and lining parts of the body. Stratified squamous epithelium may be keratinized or nonkeratinized. Non-keratinized surfaces must be kept moist by bodily secretions to prevent them from drying out.

-The cells on the surface of stratified squamous keratinized epithelium are very flat. Not only are they flat, but they are no longer alive. They have no nucleus or organelles. They are filled with a protein called keratin, which is what makes our skin waterproof.
