Answer:

Because it was time for Henrietta to go for further screening.

Explanation:

Skloot used the words “by chance” because she wants to carry her readers along and to make her readers to understand it was the perfect time for Henrietta to go to Johns Hopkins with her specific health problem so the proper diagnosis can be made and peradventure the bleeding and all her health issues will be solved. From the book She states that “By

chance, when Henrietta showed up at Hopkins complaining of abnormal bleeding, Jones and his

boss, Richard Wesley TeLinde, were involved in a heated nationwide debate over what qualified as cervical cancer and how best to treat it”. All these time, place, people,

and circumstance or collectively called variables came together “by chance” to propel or turn science in a new direction.

<span>Skloot uses the words "by chance" correctly; Henrietta had no idea she had cervical cancer, and could have gone to any number of hospitals or clinics to figure out what she thought was simply unusual bleeding. Using the word chance also underscores how one person can randomly revolutionize medicine without even knowing it.</span>

What did some people ancient people think was happening during the solstice?
AfilCa [17]

The winter solstice is again upon the Northern Hemisphere, and though the year's shortest day heralds the onset of winter it also promises the gradual return of the sun after a prolonged period of darkness.

That there are holidays at the time of this astronomical event is no coincidence. Since ancient times, people have celebrated the solstice and observed it with many different cultural and religious traditions. Some of them survive to the present day—though not always in the form you might expect.
