Answer:

uncontrolled cell division

Explanation:

Cancer cells are cells gone wrong — in other words, they no longer respond to many of the signals that control cellular growth and death. Cancer cells originate within tissues and, as they grow and divide, they diverge ever further from normalcy. Over time, these cells become increasingly resistant to the controls that maintain normal tissue — and as a result, they divide more rapidly than their progenitors and become less dependent on signals from other cells. Cancer cells even evade programmed cell death, despite the fact that their multiple abnormalities would normally make them prime targets for apoptosis. In the late stages of cancer, cells break through normal tissue boundaries and metastasize (spread) to new sites in the body.

Degradates, unlike their parent compounds, are always completely harmless. Please select the best answer from the choices provid
stiks02 [169]

The right answer is False.

An example of the degradates are the metabolites of the substances ingested.

Some chemicals in the environment enter the body and are unchanged when they are eliminated. Others are degrading. Degradation products may be more toxic or less toxic than the original chemical. Other chemicals are stored temporarily in the organs and are eliminated soon after. After a while, most chemicals and degradation products are disposed of as body waste, in the stool, urine, sweat and exhaled air.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

1. Conjugation

2. Diploid

3. External fertilization

4. Fertilization

5. Haploid

Explanation:

Conjugation is a cell-to-cell encounter between bacteria cells. The bacteria come close to each other and DNA is then transferred through a tube-;ike structure called pilius.

The difference between diploid and haploid is that diploid organisms have chromosomes that come in pairs. The chromosomes are paired up with another chromosome that is similar in shape and size and that is why they are called homologous pairs. Haploid on the other hand do not come in pairs. In human beings for example, the egg cell and sperm cell are haploid, only having one homologous chromosome. When they join together during fertlization, they form a diploid.

Fertilization is the union of gamete cells, male and female, which result in the formation of a zygote. There are two types of fertilization, internal and external. Internal fertilization occurs when the union of the sex cells (gametes) occur inside the organism. You would see this in humans, where fertilization occurs in the womb. External fertilization occurs when the union occurs outside the organism and a good example of this would be fish. The female expels it's eggs into the water and the male would release its own sex cells as well, and they would join in the water.

Is soil living or nonliving explain why or why not?
pogonyaev
Soil is non-living because it does not need the basic units of life. Soil does not necessarily need water to survive, soil does not need food, soil does not need shelter, soil doesn’t even need air.
