it is D.

Sedimentary rocks are formed when soil, rocks, or the remains of dead organisms undergo layering and compaction. During these processes, mass is conserved. The materials needed to form a certain amount of rock is equal to the mass of the all the original parts making the rock.

The cellular organization relates with one another since the colossal cell, the organ system is fundamentally composed of cells. Cells are the building blocks of these structures and which creates such organ and organ system. They associate as one cell intercommunicates with another cell until all received the message and translates it and sends it with another organ and to cell -vice-versa. And also, they become interdependent with the other cell -other tissue -other organs -other organ system. 
Cells when grouped form tissues, when group of tissues are formed together they make organs, some organisms skip from organs to organs systems to form an existing organism as a whole. Describing how is the cells group is the process of multiplication of cell or the so-called cell division, mitosis.This mechanism of each cell produces another cell that binds together and produces again, repeatedly, to be a larger system called now the tissue as explained earlier. How? Through cell division called, mitosis. Excerptmeiosis –cell division specifically in the sex cells.<span> </span>

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The possible fate of the cell that it may turn cancerous.

Explanation:

The cells present in the body generally work in harmony. However, if a cell attains a mutation, it can make it proliferate in the case when it should not do, and make it thrive in the case when other cells are dying. Due to proliferation, the unusual cell produces more abnormal cells also known as cancerous cells. These cancerous cells become more favorable in comparison to the normal cells due to the phenomenon of natural selection. These cells eventually result in a lethal form of tumors.  

In the normal cells, the destructed gene or the damaged cells get repaired easily, in case if the damage is worse the cell dies. A protein known as p53 helps in repairing damaged cells or kills them if the damage is too severe. But in the case of cancer cells, the p53 protein does not work appropriately as they possess a mutated or changed form of p53 protein. Thus, in the case of cancerous cells, the rate of repair lags behind the rate of mutation, which makes the cancer cells thrive and increase in numbers resulting in further destruction.
