In the detection of mutations in cancerous tissue aimed at targeted treatments or identification of resistances:
All known mutations for any type of cancer must be tested on any excised cancer.

In relation to the mechanisms of DNA repair damaged by mismatched pairings:
Damaged DNA is eliminated, producing chromosomal deletions. Since these do not occur in the gonads, they will not be inherited.
The base excision repair systems directly remove the damaged base and replace it in the DNA.
When DNA is damaged by a mismatched base change, cellular apoptosis is induced.
Biology
Damaged DNA is tested by producing proteins, which if they provide evolutionary advantages will be preserved.

In relation to the renal management of sodium, it is false that:
Glomerular filtration of sodium is favored by the lower resistance in the afferent arteriole than in the efferent arteriole.
The increase in colloid osmotic pressure in the glomerulus of the nephron favors the filtration of sodium.
Aldosterone regulates the plasma concentration of sodium by acting at the level of the distal and collecting tubule.
Biology
The highest percentage of filtered sodium is reabsorbed in the proximal tubule of the nephron.

The maximum transport capacity of all nephrons is identical.
Glucose is the only substance handled by the kidney without maximum transport.
The maximum transport capacity for a certain substance is very close to that of its glomerular filtration rate.
