The inherent property of a tumor that determines how the tumor responds to radiation is called radiosensitivity. When radiation

is combined with cytotoxic drugs, it has been noted that there is a radiosensitizing effect on tumor cells. Which drug is considered a radiosensitizer?

Answer:

That enhances the sensitivity of cancerous tumor cells toward the applied radiation dose.

Explanation:

It is a known fact that tumor cells are very hard to treat so, to increase their sensitivity toward radiation, the body of the patient is treated with special kind of cytotoxic drugs that enhance the sensitivity or exposure of those cancerous cells toward radiation and made them vulnerable. These drugs are applied to modern approaches because of their extensive action toward tumor cells.

What is the difference between evaporation & transpiration??
evablogger [386]
Evaporation accounts for the movement of water to the air from sources such as the soil, canopy interception, and waterbodies. Transpiration accounts for the movement of water within a plant and the subsequent loss of water as vapor through stomata in its leaves.

follicle-stimulating hormone is a pituitary hormone that acts on the follicle cells of the ovary to trigger the synthesis of cyc
irinina [24]

Answer:

Cells grown in culture tend to adhere to each other, through adhesins, so they are able to communicate with each other. They form gap junctions that allow the cytoplasm of the cells to exchange some molecules such as cyclic-AMP associated molecules in this case.

Therefore even though the FSH binds to the receptors on the ovarian follicle cells only (since these are the cells that bear the receptors for the hormone on their surface), the pathway and associated molecules for secondary messengers can diffuse across the across the gap junction into other cells, including those of the cardiac cells, hence inducing some contraction in these cells, as they respond to the secondary messengers.
