Concept explainers
A.
To explain: The model which accounts more readily for the features of the highly rearranged chromosomes.
Concept introduction: Chromosomal aberrations are changes in the normal structure of chromosome by addition, deletion, inversion and translocation. Chromosomal aberrations results in change in the gene order and inactivation of genes. If the genes involved in cell cycle are inactivated then cell cycle errors occurs which leads to cancer cells. There are two models regarding rearrangement of chromosomes which are studied that account for 2 to 3 % of all cancers which includes: Progressive Rearrangements Model (PRM) and Chromosome Catastrophe Model (CCM). Progressive Rearrangements model is where continuous chromosomal aberrations take place and several genes are rearranged. Chromosome Catastrophe Model is where the chromosome gets broken into several fragments and then stitched back together by Non Homologous End Joining (NHEJ).
B.
To explain: The way in which multiple chromosomal rearrangements arise.
Concept introduction: Chromosomal aberrations are changes in the normal structure of chromosome by addition, deletion, inversion and translocation.

C.
To explain: The arrangements are likely causative agents of cancers in which they have found or the rearrangements are just passenger events that are unrelated to cancer.

To explain: The way in which chromosome rearrangements activate an oncogene or inactivate tumor suppressor gene.

- How many milligrams of zinc did you consume on average per day over the 3 days? (See the Actual Intakes vs. Recommended Intakes Report with all days checked.) Enter the number of milligrams of zinc rounded to the first decimal place in the box below. ______ mg ?arrow_forwardthe direct output from molecular replacement is a coordinate file showing the orientation of the unknown target protein in the unit cell. true or false?arrow_forwardthe direct output from molecular replacement is a coordinate file showing the orientation of the unknown target protein in the unit cell. true or false?arrow_forward
- Did your intake of vitamin C meet or come very close to the recommended amount? yes noarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about hydration is true? Absence of thirst is a reliable indication that an individual is adequately hydrated. All of these statements are true. Although a popular way to monitor hydration status, weighing yourself before and after intensive physical activity is not a reliable method to monitor hydration. Urine that is the color of apple juice indicates dehydration. I don't know yetarrow_forwardThree of the many recessive mutations in Drosophila melanogaster that affect body color, wing shape, or bristle morphology are black (b) body versus grey in wild type, dumpy (dp), obliquely truncated wings versus long wings in the male, and hooked (hk) bristles versus not hooked in the wild type. From a cross of a dumpy female with a black and hooked male, all of the F1 were wild type for all three of the characters. The testcross of an F1 female with a dumpy, black, hooked male gave the following results: Trait Number of individuals Wild type 169 Black 19 Black, hooked 301 Dumpy, hooked 21 Hooked, dumpy, black 172 Dumpy, black 6 Dumpy 305 Hooked 8 Determine the order of the genes and the mapping distance between genes.
