Why does cell division remain important to an adult organism even after it is fully developed?

Biology
1 answer:
Sloan [31]3 years ago

Answer:

Cell division prevents cancers, and is something that in humans and in other adult organisms as well prevents old age.

There are many more complex mechanisms that contribute to old age and cancers, but if cell division slows down an organism reaches the end of its life.

Every set of cells has a limited amount of divisions it can do. literally every organism from the moment of conception is dying.

Which of the following statements is the most correct regarding homeostatic imbalance? A. It is considered the cause of most dis
AfilCa [17]

Answer:  C. Positive feedback mechanisms are overwhelmed.

Explanation:

Homeostasis, is the maintenance of a normal internal environment, in the face of external and internal disturbances, so that the functions of cells and systems of the body are preserved. This is accomplished primarily through feedback systems, so when a system is disturbed, a diversity of local responses, systemic reflexes (rapid reactions and automatic stimuli) and long-term adjustments are activated to bring the system back to its normal equilibrium point.

Most systems are controlled by negative feedback mechanisms, with the controlled variable being able to "turn off" its release, in the same way as a thermostat controls the temperature of a room. So, in this context, too much positive feedback would be related to harmful effects, such as homeostatic imbalance.
