How do cancerous cells differ from non-cancerous cells? What impact do cancerous cells have on the body

1 answer:

6 0

Normal cells stop growing (reproducing) when enough cells are present. In contrast, cancer cells don’t stop growing when there are enough cells present. This continued growth often results in a tumor (a cluster of cancer cells) being formed. Cancer cells don’t interact with other cells as normal cells do. Normal cells respond to signals sent from other nearby cells that say, essentially, “you’ve reached your boundary.” When normal cells “hear” these signals they stop growing. Cancer cells do not respond to these signals.

The ______________ of dna form the rungs, linking the ____________ strands together through ____________ .

sleet_krkn [62]

The Nitrogenous bases of dna form the rungs, linking the Nucleotides strands together through Phosphodiester bonds . Each rung is made up of two bases that link together and because of their chemical nature, A (adenine ) will only link with T (thymine) and G (guanine ) will only link with C (cytosine). Nucleotides are joined together to form two long strands that spiral to build a structure called a double helix. If it looks like a ladder, the phosphate and sugar molecules would be the sides, while the bases would be the rungs.

Naval writes out the chemical equation for photosynthesis. She includes two reacting molecules to the left of the arrow and two

Answer:

The question is incomplete. The remaining fragment that completes the question is: "What more must be added to the chemical equation to accurately represent photosynthesis? "

The answer is Light energy, above the arrow

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a metabolic reaction unique to autotrophic organisms like plants, algae etc. It is the process whereby these organisms produce their food (glucose) using light energy from the sun.

Photosynthesis cannot occur without light, as the name implies: Photo- meaning light. The sun is the source of this light energy, which photosynthetic organisms like plants capture using a green pigment called CHLOROPHYLL.

Photosynthesis is a reaction with a general equation:

6CO2 + 6H2O ---light energy-----> C6H12O6 + 6O2

However, the energy needed to perform this reaction comes from light provided by the sun. Hence, Naval needs to put LIGHT above the arrow in her equation in order to accurately represent photosynthesis.
