What are the characteristics of normal cells and cancerous cells?​

Biology

alisha [4.7K]3 years ago
4 0

Normal cells stop growing (reproducing) when enough cells are present. For example, if cells are being produced to repair a cut in the skin, new cells are no longer produced when there are enough cells present to fill the hole (when the repair work is done).

In contrast, cancer cells don’t stop growing when there are enough cells present. This continued growth often results in a tumor (a cluster of cancer cells) being formed.

Are Burmese pythons taking over Florida? Burmese pythons (Python molurus bivittatus) are constricting snakes that can reach enor
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

1. It is now illegal to import or purchase Burmese pythons in Florida. Probably, at some point, python owners who no longer wanted to care for them let them go in the Everglades. By the mid-1990s, the pythons had established a breeding population.

2. There have been no human deaths from wild-living Burmese pythons in Florida. Overall, the risk of attack is very low. ... The simplest and most sure-fire way to reduce the risk of human fatalities is to avoid interacting with a large constrictor.

Explanation:

Burmese pythons are not poisonous snakes, however they are constrictors, coiling around their prey and squeezing the life out of it. The officials in the state of Florida are extremely concerned about the invasion of these large snakes and their ability to take over most of the Everglades.
