Describe in detail: What is cancer?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Cancer can develop anywhere in the body. It starts when cells grow out of control and crowd out normal cells. This makes it hard for your body to work the way it should.

For many people, cancer can be treated successfully. In fact, more people than ever before lead full lives after cancer treatment. The cells in our bodies all have certain jobs to do. Normal cells divide in an orderly way. They die when they are worn out or damaged, and new cells take their place. In cancer, the cells keep on growing and making new cells. They crowd out normal cells. This causes problems in the part of the body where the cancer started. They can also spread to other parts of the body.

dem82 [27]
Hi there!

In the experiment we can identify the variables to determine if the result of the experiment is sound.

Dependent variable - Growth of plants
Independent variable(s) - Medium of watering, being talked to and not talked to

In an experiment you want to have 1 independent variable to determine if that 1 variable is influencing the dependent variable. Because there are two independent variables in this experiment, it is impossible to tell which one caused the plants that were talked to to grow more. As a result, the correct answer would be...

B. Talking to plants may or may not help plants grow faster because the amount of water given was likely different for each group.
