Answer: The correct answer is -

D) They are not regulated by contact inhibition.

Explanation:

Cancer cells are the rapidly proliferating cells that divide even without the presence of growth factors. They do not obey the property of contact inhibition (unlike normal cells, which stop dividing when they come in contact with each other).

In other words, cancer cells form disorganized multilayer of cells, which can not be regulated. As a consequence, they can even cross the blood vessels to other body organs ( a process that is called metastatis).

Thus, option D) is the best statement that describes cancer cells.

In humans, six fingers (f) is the dominant trait; five fingers (f) is the recessive trait. if the father is heterozygous for six
rodikova [14]

The probability of the offspring of a heterozygous father and homzygous mother having five fingers is 50%.

<h3>How to calculate genotype of a cross?</h3>

According to this question, a gene coding for the number of fingers in humans is involved. The allele for six fingers (F) is the dominant trait while the allele for five fingers (f) is the recessive trait.

If a cross between a heterozygous father that posseses a genotype of Ff and a homzygous mother that posseses a genotype of ff, the following offsprings will be produced:

  • Ff
  • Ff
  • ff
  • ff

This shows that the probability of the offspring of a heterozygous father and homzygous mother having five fingers is ½ (50%).
