Answer: Option E
Maintaining very long telomeres promotes cancer cell formation.
Explanation:
Telomere refers to either of the sequences of DNA at each end of a eukaryotic chromosome.
Usually, in eukaryote chromosome replication, telomeres are not replicated.
Hence, they are usually lost resulting in the shortening of the telomere ends after repeated cycle of cell division. This also leads to cell aging and stoppage of cell division.
The shortening of telomere combined with stoppage of cell division, and cell aging initiation prevent CANCER, which thrives on lengthy telomeres
<span>The answer is D. Both fungi and plants can
grow in soil.</span>
<span>
Through the process of elimination:
- Plants are autotrophic organisms while fungi are heterotrophic organisms.
- Plants have vascular tissue, and fungi don't.
- Fungi are the only organisms that have cell walls made of chitin.
Therefore, the correct choice is that both fungi and plants can grow in soil.</span>
