Somatic cancer cells often are unstable and divide inappropriately (divide when they should not be dividing). In addition such c

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.

What types of materials are expelled from cells during exocytosis?
aivan3 [116]

"Large molecules such as hormones" types of materials are expelled from cells during exocytosis.

<u>Answer:</u> Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The mechanism whereby a cell transfers secretory products to the plasma membrane via the cytoplasm is termed as "exocytosis" while material passage into the cell is known as "endocytosis". Exocytosis is need for removing waste material from cell.

In exocytosis, mechanism huge quantity of molecules which means bulk transport is performed.Responsible for secretion of digestive enzymes and hormones. In this process, membranes-bound secretory vesicle pass to the cell membranes while their material like water-soluble molecule get secreted in the extracellular atmosphere.

Assume that two species are coexisting in the same environment. Species A has little gene pool variation, whereas species B has
Orlov [11]
Species that have a greater gene pool are scientifically proven to survive better than those that have a smaller gene pool. This is because the species has diversity in the genes allowing them to be able to adapt to different situations. The smaller gene pool has less diversity meaning that it cannot adapt as easily. So, the answer is most likely D. Species A will most likely go extinct and species B will continue to thrive.

Elis [28]

Answer:

Stem cells are cells in the human body that have the ability to develop into many other body cell types. Stem cells are very useful for drug development, research, they aren't likely to be rejected in transplants, and are used to repair damaged or diseased cells and tissues. However, they cannot be grown for long periods of time, there are very small numbers in each tissue and cell making them very hard to find, and for certain studies they have been shown to cause cancer. To be honest, using them in research does have its pros and cons, they are very useful and easier to use in research, plus they can help repair damaged and diseased cell tissues. But at the same time they can be difficult to use correctly and properly, it can cause serious health problems if cancer doesn't take place. I think that using them in research is okay, as long as they are used correctly and properly.

Hope this helps! :)
