Why do some cells divide faster than others

Biology

Alona [7]4 years ago
8 0
Maybe because these particular cells die faster than other cells in the body, for example the receptors cells in your nasal cavity only lasts for about 3-4 weeks and after that it dies, therefore new news are formed every week in order to keep your nasal cavity from deteriorating your smell ability.
Some blood cells only lasts for about 120 days that's why new cells are formed and produced, faster production means faster cell division.

It depends on the type of cell and the current situation of those cells.

Dafna1 [17]
Since IDK which two you would choose, I'll just list all of them: fish have developed a light, streamlined body to get through water quickly to evade predators with and swim with ease, owls have big eyes so their pupils can get enough light to see in the dark since they're nocturnal, their light bodies and special (Fluffy???) flight feathers let it fly with virtually no sound, allowing it to sneak up on prey, tortoises have a large, hard shell for protection from predators and provides a mobile home on their back! Bats may be practically blind but that doesn't stop them when using echolocation to detect prey and chase it no matter what moves they make or obstacles in the way, snowshoe hares have big feet to sit on top of the snow in the cold winters where they live, their fur also changes colors as the snow melts and the plants start coming back in the more warmer seasons, poison dart frogs, sorry, IDK, cacti have developed spines all over them as self defense, (from what IDK) and they can last a long time without water (I think, don't quote me on that ^^') hope this helps

What is typically responsible for forming volcanic island chains in the oceans?
katrin [286]

Hello! :)

C. Composite volcanoes.

Why?

Composite volcanoes are some of the most dangerous volcanoes on the planet. They tend to occur along oceanic-to-oceanic or oceanic-to-continental boundaries because of subduction zones. They tend to be made of felsic to intermediate rock and the viscosity of the lava means that eruptions tend to be explosive.

Hope this helped and I hope I answered in time!

Good luck!
