Answer:

G1/S checkpoint

Explanation:

G1/S checkpoint is one of the points in the cell cycle, between growth phase 1 and DNA synthesis phase, where a cell that has been damaged is sensed by DNA repair enzymes and further degraded by apoptosis. In cancer cells, there is mutation in these DNA repair enzymes and thus nothing to correct the cells from dividing even when damaged and thus there is no arrest of division and cells continue dividing

Answer:

A ( spindle assembly checkpoint)

B ( G1/S Checkpoint)

Explanation:

Transitions between phases of the cell cycle are controlled by checkpoints.

This process is regulated by cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases and tumor suppressors.

A defect at any of these internal checkpoints would result in mutation that would lead to the formation of abnormal cells.

fiasKO [112]
A, b, and c are all correct.

take for example finches off of the galapagos islands. they vary from island to island, yet are still the same bird. on one island they have bigger, more durable and stronger beaks, because that island has many nuts to crack open and eat. on another island, they have thin ling beaks, ideal for pecking at insects in the grass on tree bark. evolution is literally survival of the ifttest, where those equipped best will live and those without means to fight for life will die off, leaving those most capable of reproduction and passing down genes.
