explain effects of mutations quick check
a mutation that causes abnormal cell division can result in (1 point)
sickle cell anemia.
cystic fibrosis.
clogged arteries.
skin cancer.
Mutations that disrupt normal cell - division regulation can lead to uncontrolled cell growth. Skin cancer often results from mutations (e.g., due to UV radiation) that cause abnormal cell division in skin cells. Sickle cell anemia and cystic fibrosis are genetic disorders caused by specific gene mutations (not related to abnormal cell division in the sense of cancer - like growth). Clogged arteries are usually due to factors like cholesterol buildup, not a mutation - induced abnormal cell - division process that directly causes a growth disorder like cancer.
