1. How do genetic accidents differ from crossing-over and recombination in terms of their roles in genetic variation and stability?
2. What primarily maintains the genetic stability of a clone during cell division?
3. What does the term 'genetic clone stability' primarily refer to in cellular biology?
Genetic accidents — role?
Cause tumor heterogeneity and variation.
Clone — definition?
Cells derived from a single ancestor, mostly identical.
Clone — definition?
Group of cells from a single ancestor.
Mitotic replication — role?
Duplicates DNA before cell division.
Mutations — effect?
Create genetic diversity within clones.
Genetic stability — importance?
Maintains consistent genome across cell generations.
