Answer -
Types of genes which are involved in cancer development or progression as follows :
Proto oncogenes - genes for which a gain of function mutation drives cell towards cancer are called as proto oncogenes.
Oncogenes are widely conserved among diverse form of life.
Example of protogenes

erbB

alb
Tumor suppressor genes - genes for which a loss of fumction mutation creates the cancer suppressor genes.
These genes were first recognised in inherited cancer.
Example -
BRCA 1 ,BRCA 2 ,P53
Gremlins mutations in BRCA 1 or BRCA 2 genes increase a woman's risk of developing hereditary breast or ovarian cancer and man's risk of developing hereditary prostate or breast cancer.
Very briefly describe five types of genes which are involved in cancer development and/or progression.

Identify and describe the five types of feasibility that must be considered throughout the system development life cycle
Please describe the five types of financial ratio analyses. Please provide and briefly discuss 2 ratios from each of the five types of analysis.
Describe the hormones involved in the development of sperm within the male. Describe the hormones involved in the menstrual cycle, and their roles in both the ovary and the uterus
BRCA1 and BRCA2 are tumor suppressor genes that have been associated with breast cancer development due to mutations of these genes being linked to a subset of breast cancers. If an individual carries one nonfunctional copy of the BRCA gene, will all of their cells be affected? Explain.
1. a) Mutations in genes encoding certain mitochondrial proteins are associated with certain types of cancer. How can defective mitochondria lead to cancer? b) Why is the structure of the mitochondria suitable for containing the metabolic processes?
Development: Think about, and then briefly describe, your career plans for the next three to five years. List any development activities you think will be helpful or necessary for you to achieve your 3 to 5 year objectives or plan. Explain why each element of your plan is there. Note any resources (time, money, or other) that will be required, and if possible, note whether those resources are or will be available. Feel free to use your imagination to come...
