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.

Photosynthesis what's in a leaf pogil answer key
kolezko [41]

Photo means light and synthesis means formation. It is a process of formation of food in the presence of light.  

It takes place in green plants because they contain chlorophyll and chlorophyll is one of the vital reactant required for this process.  

The light gets trapped in the leaf and process the formation of glucose.  

Leaf is where photosynthesis takes place. When glucose is formed in leaf, it is transported to other parts of the plants with the help of the vascular bundles.

An imbalance from the homeostasis perspective is considered to be
Aleks [24]

<span>When there is an imbalance from the homeostasis of the body, a disorder or disease may result. Homeostasis establishes balance and equilibrium of the internal and external part of the body. If this balance or ideal levels are interrupted, the body may correct it by making all system work together or the problem may worsen based on certain influences and may not allow normal functioning of the organism, by either deficiency or toxicity. </span>

Moreover, some factors that influence the body’s ability to maintain homeostatic balance are genetics, lifestyle choices and environmental exposure.
