Nowadays, it is a well-known fact that nicotine and tobacco cause cancer. However, it is important to understand why this is the case as well. The main reason why this occurs is because nicotine is linked to a process known as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). This is involved in the development of malignant cell growth. Moreover, nicotine interacts with the tumor suppressor CHK2, undermining its defense against cancer. Finally, nicotine can speed up cell growth and reduce the effect of cancer treatments.

Chancre


The first sign of syphilis is a small sore, called a chancre (SHANG-kur). The sore appears at the spot where the bacteria entered your body.

Natali5045456 [20]
<span>The answer would be true because the velocity, accuracy, and required reaction time to successfully catch a pass is variable. Reaction time is not necessarily how quickly you get your hands up but how quickly you can make a judgment on what action to take. A quick reaction could be the ability to stop and reverse direction in response to a ball passed behind the receiver.</span>
