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.

Answer:

C, to test for the presence of carbonate minerals in a rock

Explanation:

I did this a few weeks ago on Edge. Hydrochloric acid isn't for rock washing, they wouldn't use it to wear away rocks since it'd ruin the sample I think, and you will go blind if you put it in your eyes

The monomer of DNA is composed of what three parts
matrenka [14]

A monomer of DNA is composed of nitrogenous base, a pentose sugar and a phosphate group.

<h3>What is the composition of DNA?</h3>
  • A DNA molecule is made up of several repeating units called nucleotides.
  • Each nucleotide is made up of 3 parts: base, sugar and phosphate.
  • Nitrogen bases are cyclic carbon compounds and are of two types: Purines (Adenine and Guanine) and Pyrimidines (Cytosine and Thymidine).
  • Purines bond with pyrimidines to form double helix of DNA.
  • The sugar has pentose structure and is deoxyribose as it lacks 2’- OH group.
  • The 1’ Carbon of sugar is attached to the 9’ nitrogen of purine or 1’ nitrogen of pyrimidine by glycosidic bond.
  • The 5’ carbon of sugar is attached to phosphate group.
  • The phosphate group is pentavalent with a double bonded oxygen and three single bond hydroxyl molecules.
