The pap smear is ________ percent approximate in detecting cervical carcinoma

Biology
1 answer:
Katen [24]3 years ago
5 0
Pap smear (Papanicolau smear) is a procedure that involves swabbing the endocervix (inner part of the cervix), ectocervix (outer part of the cervix), and the vaginal walls. This smear will then be fixed and then viewed through a microscope to check for atypical cells (or cancer cells). Pap smear has a 95% sensitivity so pap smear can detect cervical carcinoma 95% of the time.

The controlled release of nuclear energy in a reactor is accomplished by
zhenek [66]

Nuclear power refers to the application of nuclear reactions, which discharge nuclear energy to produce heat and is most generally utilized in steam turbines to generate electricity in a nuclear power plant. Nuclear energy can be obtained from nuclear decay, nuclear fission, and nuclear fusion reactions.  

The controlled release of nuclear energy in a reactor is attained by controlling the fission without controlling a chain reaction. If a chain reaction occurs, then the amount of energy would increase exponentially, so in order to monitor the release of energy, fission must be controlled without controlling a chain reaction.

In an animal cell, what is the function of the lysosomes?
Alik [6]
<span><span><span>Release enzymes outside of the cell (exocytosis)</span>
which may serve the purpose of destroying materials around the cell.</span><span><span>Break-down 'digestion' of materials from inside the cell (autophagy)</span> 
i.e. by fusing with vacuoles from inside the cell. 
This could include digesting worn-out organelles so that useful chemicals locked-up in their structures can be re-used by the cell.</span><span><span>Break-down 'digestion' of materials from outside the cell (heterophagy)</span>
i.e. by fusing with vacuoles from outside the cell.
This could include breaking-down material taken-in by phagocytes, which include many types of white blood cells - also known as leucocytes. Specific mechanisms of heterophagy can be:<span><span>phagocytic - by which cells engulf extracellular debris, bacteria or other particles - only occurs in certain specialized cells</span><span>pinocytic - by which cells engulf extracellular fluid</span><span>endocytic - by which cells take-up particles such as molecules that have become attached to the outer-surface of the cell membrane.</span></span></span><span><span>Recycle the products of biochemical reactions that have taken place following materials being brought into the cell by endocytosis (general term for this 'recycling' function: biosynthesis) </span>
Different materials (chemicals) are processed in different ways, e.g. some structures may be processed/degraded within lysosomes and others are taken to the surface of the cell.</span><span>Completely break-down cells that have died (autolysis)</span></span>

In general, the functions of lysosomes involve breaking-down i.e. processing to 'make safe' or make use of, or removing from the cell e.g. by exocytosis, useless and potentially harmful materials such as old worn-out parts of the cell or potential threats such bacteria. Lysosomes can therefore be thought of as the rubbish disposal units within cel
