A cell is considered cancerous when it acquires a mutation that makes it unable to regulate its cell cycle, and as a result divi
des more often than a normal, healthy cell. Based on the increased energy demands of this condition, what would you expect to be true about glycolysis in cancer cells? a) Glycolysis occurs at a faster rate in healthy cells than in cancer cells. b) The rate of glycolysis is unaffected by the cancer state of a cell. c) The rate of glycolysis is higher in cancer cells than in healthy cells.
The answer is C) the rate of glycolysis is higher in cancer cells than in healthy cells. It’s due to the Warburg effect, if you have questions I’ll be glad to help
