4 0

Answer:

C. Acclimatization

Explanation:

I think of "acclimatization" as acclimating to a new environment, also it's clearly derived from acclimating. It's just another way to say adjusting to the environment, and isn't necessarily restricted to high elevations. It could also be temperature, or humidity. I hope this helped!

What do we mean when we refer to a cell as differentiated?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

We mean that a cell changes to another type of cell.

Explanation:

<em>Stem cells </em>are a type of cell that has the potential to become a specialized cell, this change or differentiation, is possible thanks to the activation or deactivation of certain genes that promote (or inhibit) the expression of certain proteins that origins different types of cells (fmuscle cells, osteocytes, neurons). This differentiation happens when the cells receive cues internally ( through signals or contact between a group of cells and another or through transcription factors) or externally.

Then, a differentiated cell is a cell that had gone under the previously described process.

I hope this information is useful to you!

azamat

Answer:

Most likely diagnosis is Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC), most likely caused by years of prolonged exposure to sunlight over time.

Explanation:

Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) is a common type of skin cancer that develops when the basal cells that is responsible for producing new skin cells when they die, become mutated and causes the basal cell to abnormally multiply rapidly and continues to grow. The accumulation of these abnormal cells is what results  in cancerous tumors that appears like ulcers on the skin. Prolong and intense exposure to the ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight has been linked to the most likely cause for the mutation of the DNA in the basal cells which leads the abnormal cell growth and multiplication. People who expose themselves to the radiation of the sun for longer periods, over time, are at high risk of developing this cancer.
