What is an example of a somatic Reflex? What is an example of an Autonomic Reflex? Reflexes: Reflexes are a fast and automatic sequence of actions that occurs in response to a particular stimulus. There are five events in a reflex arc: (1) a sensory receptor respon...

What are somatic mutations? What causes acquired mutations? What is the germline BRCA mutation? What is an example of genetic drift? What things can happen if you have a mutation? What are some examples of harmful or undesirable mutations?
Other structural and functional differences between the immune systems of birds and mammals include the architecture of the MHC [20] and different modes of somatic recombination in the generation of antibody diversity. Humans have a set of IgM, IgD, IgG, IgA, and IgE antibodies, whereas chickens...
MacDonald2,3,5, A. Jennifer Morton6, Carl Ernst7, James F. Gusella2,3,8 & Michael E. Talkowski2,3,5,9 Integration of exogenous DNA into a host genome represents an important route to generate animal and cellular models for exploration into human disease and ...
Cell respiration is a key function performed by the mitochondria consuming dioxygen (O2) and leading to the production of energy in the form of ATP, through a set of biochemical reactions performed by protein complexes (I to IV) that constitute the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) (see ...
Fig. 1: Intratumoural heterogeneity as a consequence of cancer-cell-intrinsic and cancer-cell-extrinsic factors. Individual cancer cells can differ with respect to a large number of capabilities, which are regulated at different levels by cell-intrinsic cues, including genetic, epigenetic and proteom...
Somatic cells(body cells excluding sex cells) are diploid. Adiploid cell replicates or reproduces through mitosis. It preserves its diploid chromosome number by making an identical copy of its chromosomes and distributing its DNA equally between two daughter cells. ...
