1 answer:
Cancer cells can arise in a variety of ways, the most common, however, tends to be genetic mutations.
Genetic mutations can occur during the life of a cell due to outside factors such as:
- The <u>food </u>we eat
- The <u>environment </u>we expose the cell to
- The <u>substances </u>that touch the cell (e.g skin cells)
That being said, the most common time for a genetic mutation to take place is during cellular division. During this time the DNA that encodes the cells is duplicated. Genetic mutations in this DNA sometimes cause the elimination of <u>programmed cell death</u>.
<u>Programmed cell death </u>is what tells a cell when it should stop growing and dividing. This is a <u>regulatory function </u>designed to keep the number of cells at a balance, growing only when needed. As this cell multiplies, this produces an increasing number of cells that will not die. The <u>accumulation </u>of these cells is referred to as cancer.

Mixed Acid Fermentation is a biological process by which a six carbon sugar is converted into complex mixture of acids. It is an example of anaerobic fermentation reaction which is commonly seen in bacteria.
The fermentation produces lactate, acetate, succinate, formate, ethanol, and
and their formation depends upon the presence of certain key enzymes in the bacterium.
The Methyl Red test is used in detecting occurring of mixed acid fermentation pathway when glucose is provided to microbes by using ph indicator. If the fermentation pathway has taken place, the mixture of acids will make the solution very acidic and causes red color change. The Methyl Red test belongs to the group called as IMViC tests.
