Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
B. The cell will grow uncontrollably and continue to divide as long as it has food.
Cell growth is theeoretically stimulated by the binding of growth factors to their receptors using signaling pathways.
These pathways are regulated by proteins which are encoded for in the genes.
The gene that controls the regulation of these pathway when mutated produce malfunctioning signaling protein thus not allow for regulations of the cell cycle causing uncontrollable cell division. These mutated genes are called oncogenes.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Whaling is the practice or industry of hunting and killing whales for their oil, meat, or whalebone.
Its the epidermis because it is subdivided into two layers.
Answer:
The high specific heat of water caused by hydrogen bonding
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity of a substance is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of that substance by one degree Celsius (1° C).
Due to the hydrogen bonding present in water, water has a high specific heat capacity of 4184 Joules per kilogram. This means that, water has to absorb 4,184 Joules of heat for the temperature of one kilogram of water to increase 1°C. When compared to other substances such as metals, this is very high. For example, the specific heat capacity of copper is 385 Joules per kilogram which means that it only takes 385 Joules of heat to raise 1 kilogram of copper 1°C.
Therefore water, can absorb a large quantity of heat with very little changes in its temperature. This property of water helps the oceans and seas to serve as heat reservoirs by absorbing a large quantity of heat in hotter seasons and releasing these heat in colder seasons.
