Why is DNA called the blueprint of life?

Biology
1 answer:
jeyben [28]3 years ago
7 0
<span>Because DNA contains the genes that instruct the cells in how to build proteins. The genetic codes are the blueprints for each protein, and proteins control all biochemical reactions in the cell (as enzymes) and also form the structure of the cell, which becomes the structure of the entire organism. Without knowing how to build proteins, higher organisms would never have evolved.</span>

rewona [7]

Tumors are caused due to uncontrolled growth of cells. Thus a mitosis inhibitor could be effective medication to treat tumor because it will inhibit cell proliferation and development of tumor.

Explanation:

  • Tumors are  mass of tissue that developed as a result of uncontrolled cell division.
  • Cell division is a continuous process in our body and it replaces old and damaged cells with new one.
  • But in case of tumors the cell division  takes place in uncontrollable manner and continues to add cells to the tissue while the cell death do not take place.
  • Ultimately an unwanted overgrown mass of cell develops that hinders with the normal functioning of the body.
  • Tumor are classified as benign tumor and malignant tumors.
  • Both these tumors need to be treated as they develop as an unwanted hindrance to the body metabolism.
  • The best way to check the growth of tumor is to inhibit the cell division in the tumor tissue.
  • Thus a mitotic inhibitor which will inhibit mitosis could be a good medication for treatment of tumors.
