A patient who has been diagnosed with cancer has been given a blood test in order for their doctors to investigate their genetic code. What information from the test would help confirm the patient's cancer diagnosis? A) Data indicating somatic cell production is being inhibited by the patient's cancer cells.

B) Data indicating there is a genetic mutation in a protein controlling the patient's cell’s cycle.

C) Data indicating gametes are becoming diploid cells due to the introduction of cancerous cells.

D) Data indicating that cells are increasing their chromosome number due to the occurrence of cancer cells.

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
