Answer:
<em>The correct option is B) regulation of mitosis</em>
Explanation:
Cancer can be described as a group of diseases which result from uncontrolled, abnormal cell division. The cell division by which the cells divide (except sex cells) is termed as mitosis. Hence, scientists will be studying the regulation of mitosis if they are to find a cure for cancer.
Other options like option A are not correct because only sex cells divide by meiosis. Hence, regulation of meiosis will not cure cancer.
Answer:
Type I curve
Explanation:
The K-strategist are species characterized by relatively stable populations that fluctuate at the carrying capacity of the habitat or niche in which organisms reside. Elephants are considered as K-strategists because they have a low population growth rate and relatively stable populations. There are three different types of survivorship curves. The Type I curve (also referred to as A curve) is characteristic of k-strategist organisms. Humans and elephants exhibit a Type I survivorship curve in which organisms tend to die when they become elderly. These species have a small number of offspring and provide parental care to ensure their survival. In a Type II survivorship curve, species produce many offspring and only some offspring survive (e.g., birds), while in Type III survivorship curve organisms produce many more offspring and most do not survive (i.e., r-strategists such as frogs or insects).
