Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular) that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell's biochemical reactions. Chemical energy produced by the mitochondria is stored in a small molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Physician recommends radiation therapy because radiation therapy helps in preventing cellular growth. It uses high-energy radiation to shrink tumor or kill cancer cells. It may be used to cure or to control malignancy when the tumor can no longer be removed or when lymph node involvement is present; also, it can be used prophylactically to prevent spread. Radiation therapy kills cancer cells by damaging their DNA which is the molecules inside cells that carry genetic information and pass it from generation to generation. Radiation therapy can either damage DNA directly or create charged particles within the cells that can in turn damage the DNA. Cancer cells whose DNA is damaged beyond repair stop dividing or die and when these cells die, they are eliminated by the body through natural process.
1. Ask a question: He thought how traits passed from one generation to another.
2. Form a hypothesis: His hypothesis was "Each plat has two factors for a trait, one from each parent.
3. Test hypothesis: He grew pea plants to see what will happen.
4. Make and record observations: He discovered that one factor alone doesn't determine the expression of the trait in the pea plant.
<span>5. Conclusion: Traits in pea plants are inherited from the parent pea plants.</span>
