<span>Cells do not live forever. They either divide on two new cells through mitosis or die. Mitosis is a highly controlled process because if something goes wrong in mitosis, the healthy cells will divide uncontrollably. New cells, cancer cells, will also divide of control.
Cancer cells differ from normal cells:
</span>- they are of irregular size and shape,<span>
- their nucleus increases in size,
- shape and density of the nucleus are changed,
- chromatin is changed,
- nucleus segmentation often occurs,
- the cytoplasm is scarce,
- the cytoplasm changes its colour (either pale or intensely coloured)
- mRNA is accumulated in the cytoplasm,
- mitochondria decrease their volume,
- different organelles in the cytoplasm undergo changes.

Contrast primary succession and secondary succession. Give an example of each.

just olya [345]

Answer:

Primary succession occurs following an opening of a pristine habitat, for example, a lava flow, an area left from retreated glacier, or abandoned strip mine. In contrast, secondary succession is a response to a disturbance, for example, forest fire, tsunami, flood, or an abandoned field.

After strenuous exercise sore muscles can occur because of?

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. A buildup of lactic acid in the tissues.

Sore muscles after vigorous exercise are the result of lactic acid accumulation in the muscles.

Vigorous exercise reduces the levels of oxygen available in the muscles due to which complete oxidation of the glucose could not take place.

Muscle cells switch to another process called as lactic acid fermentation to produce energy. In this process, lactate dehydrogenase converts pyruvate into lactate and reduces NADH to NAD⁺.

This NAD⁺ enables the continuation of glycolysis which results in the production of net 2 ATP.

In addition, influx of materials such as nutrients, WBC, anti-inflammatory compounds etc into the muscle cell (for repair) causes swelling of the muscle fibers which is also the reason for the muscle soreness.
