Excitable cells like those found in muscle tissue are expected to be present in higher quantities in arteries than in veins.

<h3>What are Excitable cells?</h3>

Excitable cells are defined as those cells that are capable of generating electrical impulses when stimulated. Example of such cells include:

  • Neurons,

  • muscle cells( smooth, skeletal and cardiac)

  • Endocrine cells.

The artery is made up of higher amount of smooth muscles than the veins therefore, excitable cells like those found in muscle tissue are expected to be present in higher quantities in arteries than in veins.

g During the G2 stage of interphase, ___ does not occur. A. organelle replication B. DNA growth C. protein replication D. cell g
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer: DNA growth does not occur

Explanation:

Here, the cell has grown, the DNA has been replicated (this takes place in the S phase of interphase) and its almost time for the cell to divide. Basically, what occurs during the G2 phase (Gap 2 phase of interphase) includes duplication of all proteins and organelles needed later during the process of cell division. Some of these includes assembly of microtubles will later for the spindle structure that that helps in the separation of chromosomes during the M phase but these are produced during the G2 phase.

The cells also continue to increase/grow in size and the volume of the cytoplasm also increase in this phase. There is also a checking where the cell needs to check for the structures and components and to also ensure that they are all present

If a cell loses control of gene expression, what happens?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Abnormal, unhealthy cells develop

Explanation:

Gene expression is the process through which genes are turned on through transcription, and to some extent through the translation of the mRNA.

Gene expression is highly regulated to ensure the cell can create the correct combination of proteins to carry out it's tasks. If gene expression is out of control, the mRNAs that are transcribed in the cell are not properly regulated, and therefore the proteins in the cell are not regulated. Since proteins carry out essentially every function in the cell, the cell becomes unhealthy, and incorrectly uses its resources.

Accurate control of gene expression also ensures that the cell can perform specialized functions, it is what makes a heart cell distinct from a brain cell, for example. Therefore, if it is out of control, cells will not be specialized correctly.
