Answer:
- Density-dependent inhibition refers to the mechanism by which cells limit their density due to cell-cell contacts. Cancer cells may not undergo density-dependent inhibition, while normal cells exhibit density-dependent inhibition.
- Anchorage dependence refers to the mechanism by which cell stop their division after they form a single layer on a substrate. Cancer cells may not undergo anchorage dependence and therefore they continue to divide, while normal cells undergo apoptosis (programmed cell death)
- Growth factors are signaling molecules (often proteins and peptides) that promote cell division. Overexpression of these factors may lead to carcinogenesis (i.e., the proliferation of cancer cells), while the expression of these factors is normal in normal cells.
Explanation:
Density-dependent inhibition is the mechanism exhibited by normal cells which stops cell division once a threshold density value is reached. In general, cancer cells lost the density-dependent inhibition of growth and therefore they continue dividing. Anchorage dependence refers to the increase in the proliferation of cells that are attached to a solid surface. Most normal cells display anchorage dependence and therefore they need contact with a solid surface to proliferate, while cancer cells are independent of this attachment, proliferating and invading tissues (metastasis). Finally, growth factors are molecules capable of stimulating cell proliferation and cellular differentiation. In consequence, overexpression of growth factors may lead to cancer due to the uncontrolled division of cancer cells. Some examples of growth factors are Epidermal growth factor (EGF), Fibroblast growth factors (FGF) and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF).
An ecosystem is a community of living organisms in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment, interacting as a system.
idk if you want a long answer, but its ketones
Answers may vary, but the overall trend should show an increase in the percent oil in the mixture at these following percentage:
1st: 1%
2nd: 7%
3rd: 32%
It is noted that the concentration of oil increases with each trophic level.
