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.

2. The Bionic Pancreas Until recently, diabetics could rely only on regular blood sugar checks, medications, and low-carbohydrat
ryzh [129]

Answer:

to maintain homeostasis

Explanation:

The bionic pancreas is a technology created to reduce and adjust blood sugar levels in patients with diabetes. This external device was developed by Ed Damiano's lab at Boston University. This management system is well known to maintain homeostasis by managing blood sugar levels: the bionic pancreas contains two pumps, one with insulin and the second one with glucagon for controlling the sugar levels when they change in the blood.
