A mixture of liquids with different boiling points like water and ethanol or crude oil which is a mixture of hydrocarbons. It can also be used to separate a solution into its â¦ solvent and solute, for example salt solution (salt water) could be separated into water (solvent) and salt (solute).
Most of our success in understanding the genetic basis of common forms of atherosclerosis has come from studies of âcandidate genes,â genes identified by biochemists and subsequently examined for genetic differences and associations in populations. A good example of a candidate gene is apolipoprotein E (apoE).
MAP is caused by faults in the MYH gene. It is much rarer than FAP (familial adenomatous polyposis). To have MAP, a person needs to have 2 faulty copies of the MYH gene, 1 from each parent. People with MAP develop polyps and are likely to develop bowel cancer under the age of 50.
