Abnormal cell division leads to formation of cancer cell.

In the normal cell, cell division is controlled by mechanisms that include the activity of those genes that promote cell proliferation and those that suppress it. Uncontrolled cell division change the status of the cells. They divide more rapidly and become less dependent on signals from other cells. As a consequence these cells’ growth rate increase and the spread through the whole body via metastasis.

Cell division is a highly regulated process in which a parent cell divides into two daughter cells. It is responsible for the growth and development of an organism. It is controlled by different genes that control cellular growth. If this regulation is lost, it leads to cancer which is basically an uncontrolled cell division.

Cancer cells arise as a result of gene mutations leading to uncontrolled division. They grow rapidly, with abnormal morphology and very poor differentiation. They are insensitive to growth inhibitor signals and also lack a programmed cell death. As a result a mass of cells called the tumor arises which can be benign or malignant.

Why does DNA replication have such accuracy ?
USPshnik [31]
Because human DNA is so very long (with up to 80 million base pairs in a chromosome) it unzips at multiple places along its length so that the replication process is going on simultaneously and more accurately.

Which of the following statements is the most likely explanation for plant withering due to leaky membranes in cold temperatures
podryga [215]

Answer:

C. H+ ions do not accumulate inside the thylakoid, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.

Explanation:

Plant withering refers to the virtual death of plant cells due to lack of food. During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, ATP needed for the synthesis of sugar (food) is created in the thylakoid membrane of the CHLOROPLAST of plant cells.

In the light-dependent reaction, hydrogen ions (H+) builds up/accumulate in the thylakoid lumen to create an electrochemical or proton gradient i.e. a difference in the concentration of H+ ions across the membrane. The hydrogen ions passes through a protein complex called ATP synthase, which forms ATP from ADP (by adding phosphate group), from the energy generated by the electrochemical gradient formed as a result of hydrogen in (H+) build up.

Hence, a plant that possess leaky membrane due to the cold temperature will likely wither because H+ ions are not able to accumulate inside the thylakoid causing a proton gradient, so ATP synthase makes too little ATP.
