Answer:
Cancer cells achieve proliferative immortality by activating or upregulating the normally silent human TERT gene (hTERT) that encodes telomerase, a protein with reverse transcriptase activity that complexes with other proteins and a functional RNA (encoded by hTR, also called hTERC) to make a ribonucleoprotein enzyme.
Explanation:
A rare cell that escapes crisis almost universally does so by reactivating telomerase and this cell can now become a cancer cell with limitless potential to divide. Almost all cancer cells have short telomeres and thus inhibitors of telomerase should drive such cancer cells into apoptotic cell death. Yet, each time a cell divides, the telomeres get shorter. When they get too short, the cell no longer can divide and becomes inactive or "senescent" or dies. This process is associated with aging, cancer, and a higher risk of death.

Answer:
e. secretion, absorption and chemical protection
Explanation:
Epithelial tissues is responsible for the protection of the skin, absorption of nutrients during digestion and secretion of waste materials. These tissues form covering to all body surfaces. They also perform a variety of other functions such as excretion of waste substances, filtration of air from dirt and particles and clean the air that is inhaled, diffusion, and sensory reception.
