Cell division is the process essential for growth and repair in multi-cellular organisms.

Injury to the tissue can activate surrounding cells to undergo cell division with the help of mitogens. Mitogens are the chemical substances which help in escalating mitotic divisions in the cells.

They act by activating the signal-transduction pathway which involve mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK).

Other possible manner could be the loss of density which could lead to the inactivation of contact inhibition. As there is a loss of cells during the injury, it makes an empty space which could also trigger or activate surrounding cell to start cell division.

In addition, at injury site the flow of blood also increases to transport various nutrients, clotting factors, growth factors etc. These increased nutrition and growth factors also speed up the process of mitosis.

You have a 16N sack of potatoes that you need to lift onto the kitchen counter. You set up a pulley system with a mechanical adv

natali 33 [55]

A force of 8 N will be required.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Mechanical advantage is defined as the ratio of output force from a system to the input force into the system. A machine which has the mechanical advantage more than 1 means it requires less force to give more force as output. Similarly, when the mechanical advantage for the machine is less than 1,it means more force is required to give to achieve a less one.

Here in the question, the mechanical advantage of the pulley is 2.

Output force required to pull the sack of potatoes upto kitchen is 16N.

Mechanical advantage = Output force / input force.

Or, 2= 16 / input force.

So input force = $16 / 2 =8.$

So a force of 8 N will be required to pull the pulley.
