You do have an wonderful theory, but what if they already found the cure for cancer cells? but wont tell us because the government wants us to believe there isnt none so that they can either use it on themselves or wait for the future atleast a million people die from cancer everyday but how come they havent "supposedly" found a cure yet?

The right answer is slowly erode their chromosome ends.

Telomerase is an enzyme found in eukaryotic organisms, which, during DNA replication, has the mission to dress the telomere chromosomes, nucleotide sequences placed at their ends and used to preserve them.

Telomerase expresses itself very little (if at all) in differentiated cells. By dint of cellular divisions, the telomeres disappear, the chromosomes are damaged and the cell returns to senescence. In contrast, the enzyme is very active in germ lines. It therefore prevents aging stem cells. It is considered that it could be one of the levers to activate to curb or even stop aging.

Which statement best explains why the skin cell and intestinal epithelial cell are different?
malfutka [58]

The statement 'Skin cells and epithelial cells each make a different set of proteins, which determines each cell type's structure and function.' is correct. It is known as differentiation.

<h3>What is differentiation?</h3>

Differentiation refers to the cellular phenomenon for which different genes are expressed in specific cell types.

Differentiation leads to the formation of different cell types that have specific functions/roles.

Differentiation depends on gene expression pattern that influences the type and amount of proteins in a given cell.

Fill in the blanks.
vivado [14]

Answer:

Proteins are responsible for the <u>mass </u>and <u>fat </u>of much of our bodies (and other organisms). The instructions for making protein are encoded in <u>DNA</u>. These genes provide the sequence of building blocks known as <u>nucleotides</u>. This string of amino acids then folds into different shapes. The structure of proteins determines what a <u>molecule </u>can do. Proteins contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. ​

Why is it Important that cell membrane contain openings into cell ?
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Embedded in the lipid bilayer are large proteins, many of which transport ions and water-soluble molecules across the membrane. Some proteins in the plasma membrane form open pores, called membrane channels, which allow the free diffusion of ions into and out of the cell.
