Answer:

Hydrogen peroxide is toxic.

Explanation:

Hydrogen peroxide is a natural product of the reactions in the cell. However, it is toxic to cells and has to be broken down.

Catalase catalyses the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. It is found in all living cells and is very important to prevent the build up of hydrogen peroxide. If catalase didn't work quickly, hydrogen peroxide would accumulate in the cell and poison it, causing the cell to die.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

There is no cure for cystic fibrosis, but treatment can ease symptoms and reduce complications.

Explanation:

1). For those with cystic fibrosis who have certain gene mutations, doctors may recommend a newer medication called ivacaftor. This medication may improve lung function and weight, increases the activity of Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)protein and reduce the amount of salt in sweat. It has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for people with cystic fibrosis who are age 6 and older. The dose depends on your weight and age.

2). For people with a certain gene mutation who are age 12 and older, another drug is available that combines ivacaftor with a medication called lumacaftor. This drug is called orkambi.

The use of Orkambi may improve lung function and reduce the risk of exacerbations.

What might occur when mitosis is not stopped or occurs quickly due to the presence of cancer.  
leva [86]
In a cell, there are several parts of it that are there to stop this from happening. Cancerous cells do not have the genetic code to stop growing and reproducing. A regular cell will actually destroy itself it there is a mutation. If it does not get destroyed, it could potentially be tumorous, then it could eventually be cancerous.

Hence, the correct option is A.
