Cells have genes that affect cell division. These genes may be damaged by environmental factors such as radiation, smoking, and viral infections. Oncogenes
stimulate rapid cell division and are normally turned off in adult organisms. Tumor
suppressor genes prevent continuous cell division and are normally turned on in
adult organisms. One of these tumor suppressor genes, called p53, can be turned off
by the effects of smoking tobacco. Based on the above information, what is the most likely result of turning off p53?
A Lungs become black from smoking

B Cells undergo uncontrolled division

C White blood cells are unable to stop infections

D. DNA chains are broken and form more chromosomes

The empty trna moves off and picks up another matching amino acid from the cytoplasm in the cell. the anticodon of the trna, with its attached amino acid, pairs to the codon of the mrna, which is attached to a ribosome. this sequence is repeated until the ribosome reaches a stop codon on the mrna, which signals the end of protein synthesis. the ribosome forms a peptide bond between the amino acids, and an amino acid chain begins to form. when a second trna with its specific amino acid pairs to the next codon in sequence, the attached amino acid breaks from the first trna and is bonded to the amino acid of the second trna.
