Scientific thinking: how can scientists assess the health risks of trans fats

Scientists can access the risks of trans fats by conducting an appropriate experiment which will show the effects of the fats on the human system.
This can be done by feeding known quantity of trans fats to rats over a specific period of time. During the period, the change in the rat weights will be measured on the daily basis and every other changes that is noted in the rats will be noted down. A control group of rats will be included in the experiment; these rats will be given normal rat feeds and not trans fats.
 When the period of feeding is completed, the rats will be killed, all the organs in the rats such as liver, blood, brains, kidney, etc will be harvested and these organs will then be biochemically analysed in order to compare the changes in them with that of a normal rats.
Rats are usually used in biochemical research because their systems and that of human is comparable. Any negative effect of trans fats that is noted in the rats will also hold true for human beings.

The cell cycle is the life of the cell from the time it is first formed from a dividing parent cell until its own division into
schepotkina [342]

Explanation:

cell cycle is made up of three main parts: interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis. Most biologists agree that interphase makes up the period of time that a cell would be preparing for cell division. Cells spend the majority of their lives in this stage. During interphase a cell is going to be growing, replicating its genetic material and essentials to carry out cell division, and proofreading the genetic material to ensure replication has occurred correctly. This doesn’t sound like much, but it’s actually the longest part of the cell cycle. Once this is complete, the cell will then go through cell division and, theoretically, split into two new cells (cytokinesis).

How cytokinesis works will depend upon the type of cell that is dividing. Here is an image that summarizes the differences in cytokinesis in plant cells and animal cells, which is the classic example used in many introductory biology courses:
