It might also be an important cause of hip osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore in this study we evaluated the frequency of cam-type FAI in axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) patients as a potential alternative cause of hip or trochanteric pain.
Chromosomes are made from DNA. Genes are short sections of DNA. Genetically identical cells are produced by a type of cell division called mitosis. In sexual reproduction, a male gamete fuses with a female gamete to produce a new cell. This is called fertilisation. Gametes are produced by a type of cell division called meiosis.
DNA folds into paired packages called Chromosomes. These are stored in the nucleus of the cell. Different species have different numbers of chromosones, humans (both male and female) have 23. Chromosomes contain lots of genes, a gene is a section of DNA that holds the instructions for a protein.Proteins are the building blocks of life, they perform a huge variety of jobs from controlling a cell's functioning to determining the shape of a whole organism.NA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) is the 'instruction manual' of how to build life. DNA defines everything, from microbes to plants to humans. DNA is what determines your appearence, such as facial features, hair colour and height.
