<span>The correct answer is 'metastasis'. This is the migration of cancer cells from one place to another in the body. They do this by travelling through the blood stream or the lymphatic system. Mitosis is the process of asexual cell division. It produces cells that are identical to the original cell as one cell divides into two after replicating its organelles and genetic information. (Mitosis makes my toes.) Apoptosis is controlled cell death. When cells are getting old then they need to be replaced. Old cells are programmed to 'die' at the correct time. The cell contents are recycled to make new cells.</span>

How is the increase in pulse rate while carrying out vigorous activities related to the rate of oxygen intake and release of car
polet [3.4K]
During exercise there is an increase in physical activity and muscle cells respire more than they do when the body is at rest. The heart rate increases during exercise. The rate and depth of breathing increases - this makes sure that more oxygen is absorbed into the blood, and more carbon dioxide is removed from it.
