Imagine that you are a scientist hard at work in a cancer research lab. You and many of your colleagues are hoping to discover n

ew powerful drugs that could prevent deaths from cancer.
Your research team has observed that cancer cells have a lower survival rate when exposed to samples of a certain species of fungus. To study this further, your team isolated several chemicals from the fungus, including one known to affect cell metabolism. You hypothesize that it is that chemical that lowers the survival rate of cancer cells.
1. Statement(s) supported by the data
A- Cancer cells treated with the chemical have a lower survival rate than cells that are not treated.
B- .After 5 days of chemical treatment, less than 50% of the cancer cells are alive.
2. Statement(s) NOT supported by the data
A- Cancer cells treated with the chemical have a higher survival rate than cells that are not treated.
B- After 10 days without chemical treatment, more than 90% of the cancer cells are alive.
C- This chemical will be useful for treating colon cancer, but not necessarily for other types of cancers.
D- This chemical will be useful for treating all types of cancers.

Answer:

The answers are a) Cancer cells treated with the chemical have a lower survival rate than cells that are not treated and d) This chemical will be useful for treating all types of cancer.

Explanation:

Since the research finds that cancer cells have a lower survival rate when exposed to a particular species of fungus. In addition to this new chemical compound could be implemented as a cancer drug.

Answer:

  1. Respiratory system
  2. Nervous system
  3. Circulatory system
  4. Integumentary system
  5. Endocrine system

Explanation:

During excessive hard work or sports, the respiratory system acts to provide sufficient oxygen for energy supply (ATP) - a process takes place in mitochondria. At the very beginning, the respiratory system is active. If the person doesn't intake sufficient water, he will feel tired because of heavy breathing that increases body temperature and affects metabolic reactions. A supply of water would help decrease the respiration need and so support other systems.

The nervous system (hypothalamus) regulates the body temperature which is necessary for metabolic reactions taking place within the body, i.e. homeostasis. During and after exercise, the water intake was not sufficient, this means that the hypothalamus would work to maintain the temperature as well as other metabolic mechanisms. In the case of less water intake, the nervous system would be in stress.

The circulatory system acts to transport blood and oxygen to all parts of the body. During sports activities, the oxygen supply would be high to maintain energy supply. This takes place with the combined action of the circulatory system and respiratory system. For optimal functioning, the circulatory system needs fluids (water) intake because sufficient water is already lost during sports.

The integumentary system is the system that directly protects the body from damages including dehydration. Therefore, in this case, it will be highly active.

The endocrine system consists of glands that produce hormones to control body metabolism. The body metabolism, as mentioned before, is driven through water availability. The reduced water in the body would also put the endocrine system under pressure.
