Gravity

Neutron stars are the most extreme and fascinating objects known to exist in our universe: Such a star has a mass that is up to twice that of the sun but a radius of only a dozen kilometers: hence it has an enormous density, thousands of billions of times that of the densest element on Earth. An important property of neutron stars, distinguishing them from normal stars, is that their mass cannot grow without bound. Indeed, if a nonrotating star increases its mass, also its density will increase. Normally this will lead to a new equilibrium and the star can live stably in this state for thousands of years. This process, however, cannot repeat indefinitely and the accreting star will reach a mass above which no physical pressure will prevent it from collapsing to a black hole. The critical mass when this happens is called the "maximum mass" and represents an upper limit to the mass that a nonrotating neutron star can be.

However, once the maximum mass is reached, the star also has an alternative to the collapse: it can rotate. A rotating star, in fact, can support a mass larger than if it was nonrotating, simply because the additional centrifugal force can help balance the gravitational force. Also in this case, however, the star cannot be arbitrarily massive because an increase in mass must be accompanied by an increase in the rotation and there is a limit to how fast a star can rotate before breaking apart. Hence, for any neutron star, there is an absolute maximum mass and is given by the largest mass of the fastest-spinning model.

o-na [289]
Central dogma is done by all cells which involves the process of DNA replication, transcription and translation. DNA replication involves making of a new DNA molecule  to copy the genetic information and takes place in the nucleus of a cell while Transcription is the formation of a mRNA from DNA molecule by RNA polymerase a process that takes place in the nucleus. Translation involves formation of polypeptides from the messenger RNA which takes place in the cytoplasm (cytosol) of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells in an organelle known as ribosomes.

14. What two things limit the size of cells?
sergiy2304 [10]
14. Surface Area , and Volume Area limits the size of cells.

15 .A cell is a metabolic compartment where a multitude of chemical reactions occur. The number of reactions increase as the volume of metabolic volume within a cell increases. (The larger the volume the larger the number of reactions)  
All raw materials necessary for metabolism can enter the cell only through its cell membrane.  
The greater the surface area the larger the amount of raw materials that can enter at only one time.  
Each unit of volume requires a specific amount of surface area to supply its metabolism with raw materials. The amount of surface area available to each unit of volume varies with the size of a cell.  
As a cell grows its SA/V decreases.  
At some point in its growth its SA/V becomes so small that its surface area is too small to supply its raw materials to its volume. At this point the cell cannot get larger.

16. Cells only divide when they receive specific signals from proteins called mitogens,the presence of mitogens can limit cell division. Mitogens are needed for cell division in healthy cells and are released depending on what cells the body needs.
