<span>The chemical elements</span><span> can be broadly divided into </span>metals<span>, </span>metalloids<span> and </span>nonmetals<span> according to their shared </span>physical<span> and </span>chemical properties<span>. All metals have a shiny appearance (at least when freshly polished); are good conductors of heat and electricity; form </span>alloys<span> with other metals; and have at least one </span>basic oxide<span>. Metalloids are metallic-looking brittle solids that are either </span>semiconductors<span> or exist in semiconducting forms, and have </span>amphoteric<span> or weakly </span>acidic oxides<span>. Typical nonmetals have a dull, coloured or colourless appearance; are </span>brittle<span> when solid; are poor conductors of heat and electricity; and have acidic oxides. Most or some elements in each category share a range of other properties; a few elements have properties that are either anomalous given their category, or otherwise extraordinary.</span>

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:D.D.) Suspend the cells in liquid agar culture and monitor which culture continues to grow.

Explanation

Options A-C are correct except D.

→Increase in Telomere length is indicative of abnormal growth, cancer cells can reactive  telomerase to increase cell's length.

→Once a monolayer is reached; this a stage of  a complete normal cell division , a cell that goes beyond this stage must be mutated. assuming all other factors are constant .

Uncontrolled cell division is an indication of virulent growth in mutated cells.

<u>Cancer cell requires a ,medium of  living host to thrive, alga medium will not support growth for carcinoma cells -the correct answer. </u>

<u></u>

Completed Que.

:Imagine that you are a graduate student working in a cancer lab. You accidentally mix unlabeled tubes of carcinoma cells with tubes of normal epithelial cells. Which of the following is NOT a possible strategy to allow you to distinguish which tubes contain carcinoma cells?

A.)Monitor telomere length over time during multiple cell divisions.

B.) Plate the cells in culture and look for the culture that stops dividing once a monolayer is reached.

C.) Monitor the rate of cell division.

D.) Suspend the cells in liquid agar culture and monitor which culture continues to grow.

What factors contribute to proteome diversity?
romanna [79]

Answer:

Post-translational modification, alternative splicing, DNA mutations

Explanation:

The diversity of the proteome can occur at different levels of biological processes:

1. During DNA replication yielding DNA mutations.

2. At the mRNA level in Alternative Splicing.

3. After translation on amino acid molecules including addition of different types of sugars (Glycosylation). This is post-translational modification.
