Answer;

C. The body failing to respond to signals that slow the cell cycle

-The body failing to respond to signals that slow the cell cycle: can result in irregularities leading to cancer.

Explanation;

-Cancer is caused by uncontrolled cell division. Its development and progression are usually linked to a series of changes in the activity of cell cycle regulators. For example, inhibitors of the cell cycle keep cells from dividing when conditions are not favorable, therefore, too little activity of these inhibitors can promote cancer.

-Similarly, positive regulators of cell division can lead to cancer if they are too active. In most cases, these changes in activity are due to mutations in the genes that encode cell cycle regulator proteins.

Answer:

The correct answer would be option C.

Cancer refers to a disease in which cells tend to grow and divide abnormally.  

There are several causes for the occurrence of cancer which include: spontaneous genetic mutations, radiations, carcinogenic chemicals et cetera.

It results in the inability of the body to respond accurately to the signals that slow down the cell cycle.

Consequently, the cells keep dividing and loss the property of contact inhibition due to which it results in the formation of tumors.

Gradually, tumors result in cancer.

Spherocytosis is a human blood disorder associated with a defective cytoskeletal protein in the red blood cells (rbcs). what do
Alex17521 [72]
In spherocytosis, there is a defect in the membrane proteins of the red blood cells, specifically ankyrin and spectrin. These membrane proteins contribute to the biconcave shape of red blood cells therefore the loss of these proteins will lead the red blood cells to lose its biconcave shape--leading to abnormally shaped red blood cells (spheres) hence the name. This can lead to premature destruction of red blood cells and jaundice due to hyperbilirubinemia. Spherocytes do not hold oxygen and carbon dioxide well as spherocytes have a decreased surface area.
