The science of Cancer Biology focuses on the study of the different mechanisms and fundamental process of cell growth, the transformation of normal to cancer cells, and the metastasis or spread of these cancer cells to other parts of the body.  


As such, it includes the study of how tumor cells develop and grow. It also includes studying how the immune system responds to cancer cells, thus including macrophages and their response to the presence of pathogens and cancer cells.  Underlying all these is the inclusion of a study on protein synthesis as it is the process where biological cells build and create new specific proteins in the body.

Which of the following two events occur to create a sea breeze? Select all that apply. Warm air rises on the ocean and moves tow
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Warm air rises on land and moves toward the ocean to cool

Cool air moves from the ocean to be warmed by the land

Explanation:

The land heats up faster than the oceans during the day. This is because water has a high heat capacity and takes more energy to raise its temperatures by one degree (even in comparison to land). Therefore land heats up the air above it faster than the oceans. The air mass over land rises due to drop in density. The cooler and denser air mass above the oceans moves towards land to replace the rising warm air. This creates a cool breeze felt on land during the day as the cool air rushes in.
