Question

During the cell cycle, the cell must pass through several checkpoints that confirm that the cell is ready to progress to the next phase of the cycle. If the requirements of one phase have not been met, the cell cannot proceed to the next phase. These checkpoints help control the rate of cell division. If a mutation disables one of these checkpoints, what is most likely to happen?
a. Cells proceed through phases of the cell cycle in the wrong order
b. Cells remain in one phase of the cell cycle for the rest of their existence
c. The cell begins dividing too often, forming a tumor
d. Cells divide slowly, reducing organ function.

Answer 1

Answer:

d is the correct answer

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

The cell begins dividing too often, forming a tumor. Since there is no check due to mutation, cell growth and death is not controlled hence the cells divided too often and as they like leading to tumour development and cancer.
