Directions Please do some out of class research to help you answer the questions below. For part-a and part-c a citation is required. Please include a url and page/video title to indicate where you found your information. The citations for part-a and part-c can be the same, or different sources. Prompt Sometimes, changes or "mutations" occur that prevent genes from doing their job properly. Certain mutations in the BRCA genes make cells more likely to divide and change rapidly, which can lead to cancer. a. What are BRCA genes? What job do these genes normally do in the human body? Citation required. b. Given your understanding of meiosis and inheritance explain the following statement: "If either your mother or your father has a BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation, you have a 50% chance of having the same gene mutation." c. If you inherit a mutated version of a BRCA gene, does this mean you are guaranteed to develop cancer? What other changes must occur for cancer to develop? Citation…

Topic: Genetic analysis (don't answer if you already answered it thank you)
The following statements are either accurate as written or contain some errors. You need to rewrite each as an accurate statement. Make sure that you do not change the material the sentence is about. Highlight or underline any changes that you make to statements. Thank you! 1. Cancer is caused by a single mutation in either a tumor suppressor gene or an oncogene. The reason that cancer rates increase with age is because our immune system is better at fighting mutations. 2. Pluripotent is the term used for cells that have already differentiated into all cell types within an organism. 3. Phenotypic variance is partitioned into genetic variance and additive variance. This also indicates that the amount of variance in the phenotype of individuals with the same genotype is solely based on heritability values.
Choose one of the following scenarios and answer the questions provided. Support your answers using scientific reasoning and discussing possible impacts to individuals, society, and the environment. Be sure to also discuss any medical or ethical issues that may apply. Scenario 1:Scientists have developed genetically engineered plants that are pest-resistant. By adding genes to the plant's DNA, they become toxic to insects (but not to plants or animals). This means that these plants may not need to be sprayed with pesticides to ward off the insects. Would you be willing to eat these genetically altered crops? Explain your answer. What are some possible impacts (positive or negative) of this genetically engineered plant on the environment, society, and individuals? Scenario 2:Jan's sister and mother have both had breast cancer. She is wondering if she should undergo genetic testing to check for a mutation of the BRCA1 gene. A mutation in the BRCA1 gene is commonly associated with,…
I need help writting a biological "title" for this lab report. I performed 5 labs which are PCR purification, Rapid ligation, and Transformation, Blue/White screening and observation of pGreen transformation, Plasmid Extraction and Restriction Enzyme Digestion, Soil DNA extraction and gel electrophoresis, and Bioinformatics Analysis of 16s rRNA genes. Note; I attached one page of my abstract and one page of the introduction

I need help with the following questions and there are multiple parts and I dont understand! Scientists have recently inserted a gene to create a mouse with an increased capacity for learning and memory- basically increasing the mouse’s IQ. Normal, average human IQ is around 100, above that is considered highly intelligent while an IQ below 70 is considered to indicate mental disability. In the future, if this treatment could be applied to humans, it could increase IQ by 30 points. A couple has a son with Down’s syndrome giving him an IQ of 70. They want to use the therapy to increase his IQ to 100 in order for him to function normally. This is considered to be gene therapy, where technology is used to help a person function better. A second couple has a son with an IQ of 120. They want to use the technology to bring his IQ up to 150. They feel he would have a better chance of getting into a prestigious university. This is called gene enhancement where technology is…

(Refrain from searching the internet for your answers to avoid plagiarism check.) "COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by SARS-COV-2 or the coronavirus. It directly affects our respiratory and circulatory systems. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness, and others have no symptoms at all. In some cases, however, COVID- 19 can lead to respiratory failure. lasting lungs and heart muscle damage. nervous system problems, kidney failure or death. If that is the case, how can you make your respiratory and circulatory systems healthy to prevent being infected by the virus?" Answer:
