Nataly [62]

Answer:

Over all growth and development cycle

Explanation:

<em>C. elegans,</em> due to its manageability, nervous system, muscle, skin gut and reproductive cycle makes it an ideal model. These nematodes are similar to human systems and lot of the research found can be applied to humans and medicine.

Apoptosis is the programmed cell death and this can be for many reasons such as repair, replace or removal of old or damaged cells. This groundbreaking research has captured the attention of scientist over the decades and many new findings are continuing to evolve.

Some phenotypes that are important in studying apoptosis are: Stress response, growth and development, tumor formation/regeneration and wound healing.
