The nucleus is not the only source of DNA, besides it, DNA is also found in the mitochondria of all eukaryotic cells, as well as in the chloroplasts of plant cells and such DNA is called extrachromosomal DNA.

The DNA from the mitochondria (mtDNA) and chloroplasts are small and circular, which are similar to the prokaryotic DNA.

mtDNA contains its own genes that encode proteins that are part of the electron transport chain.

<span>Chloroplast DNA encodes for the components of the photosynthetic pathway.</span>

stepan [7]

The correct answer is: the treated glioblastoma cells were cultured in the presence of an inhibitor from umbilical cord stem cells, but the control cells were cultured without the inhibitor.

It has been shown that treatment with injected umbilical cord stem cells has strong therapeutic effects on glioma models. Those cells produce anti-tumour substances, with inhibitory effects.

Control group does not include the treatment in order to observe the treatment.

Most cells are small. when they reach a certain size, cells typically divide. this has to do with the
Allisa [31]
This has to do with SURFACE TO VOLUME RATIO. For a typical small cell, its surface area to the volume ratio get smaller as the cell grows. This implies that, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, then the amount of nutrients that entered the cell will be limited, that is , nutrients will not be able to migrate into the cell as needed. To avoid this, the cell has to divide to reduce its surface to volume ratio.<span />
