Substances and exposures that can lead to cancer are called carcinogens. Some carcinogens do not affect DNA directly, but lead to cancer in other ways. For example, they may cause cells to divide at a faster than normal rate, which could increase the chances that DNA changes will occur.

Food provides molecules that serve as fuel and building material for all organisms. Plants undergo photosynthesis and make their
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Read explanation.

Explanation:

Like plants, animals also need food for their bodies. But they can't produce their own food. They have to depend on others for food purposes. After eating anything, that don' t go their cells directly. It passes many stages; then, they go the cell as a fuel. From eating to consuming by the cell, many digestive processes happen, such as the degradation of larger molecules to small molecules. Many chemical reactions also occur to covert elements to that form, which can be taken by cells as fuel as the reaction in mitochondria.

This way, men and animals get food as their fuel.

The asthenosphere lies 80-200km below the surface under the lithosphere. Convection also occurs in the asthenosphere. The asthenosphere is mostly made of up rock material (magnesium and iron silicates). The asthenosphere makes up 6% of the mantle and lets the lithosphere move.

Best of Luck!

When is the generation of an action potential impossible no matter the strength of the stimulus?
ANTONII [103]
The right answer is <span>Refractory period.

At the moment when the action potential is emitted, the fiber being depolarized, it is impossible to depolarize it again. It is, therefore, necessary to wait until the membrane potential returns to a value below the critical threshold in order to be able to excite it again. We are thus led to distinguish two periods that characterize its excitability.
An absolute refractory period: during which any stimulation, even supraliminal, is ineffective since the fiber is already depolarized.
A relative refractory period: during which a second action potential can be omitted provided that the depolarization produced by the excitation reaches the critical threshold, which implies that it is more important since the value of the resting potential has not been restored yet.</span>
