Chemotherapy targets fast growing cells , including cancer cells ,skin cells, Gastro intestinal cells, blood cells etc.

Explanation:

Chemotherapy refers to use of chemicals to treat diseases like, cancer.
This procedure involves the use of cytotoxic chemicals that inhibit mitosis.
Drugs used in Chemotherapy principally target fast growing cells of the body .
Thus along with cancer cells these drugs also effect normal body cells such as , blood cells, skin cells etc.
Damage to blood cells weakens the immune system and the patient is susceptible to other diseases also.
To avoid such situation chemotherapy is accompanied with other combination medicines.
Even after having several side effects chemotherapy is suggested as most suitable treatment to reduce symptoms of most type of cancer because it involves the introduction of drugs into the blood and thus can be targeted to any anatomical location in the body.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Refer to the attached image for correct labeling.

Explanation:

The diagram is of a plant cell and its organelles.
The nucleus houses the genetic material and controls all life processes.
A plant cell contains one large vacuole in the center that stores water and nutrients.
Chloroplast is the site for photosynthesis. It captures light and utilizes it and carbondioxide to produce glucose.
Mitochondria are called the power house of the cell. Through a process called cellular respiration, they break down the glucose produced in photosynthesis into energy compounds such as ATP as well as oxygen and water.
The endoplasmic reticulum is the site for protein sysnthesis. It contains two parts: the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which contains ribosomes that synthesize proteins and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) which packages the proteins into transport vesicles.
The nucleus contains the nucleolus that is the site for ribosome assembly.
The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that covers the cell and controls cellular transport.
The cell wall is a hard, outer covering that protects the cell and maintains its structure and shape.
