What are the locations in the body where cell populations undergo rapid mitosis?
Cells undergo rapid mitosis in the body in areas that feature a high turnover. Epithelial and endothelial cells constantly replicate to renew skin and vascular lining. Also, hematopoietic progenitor cells constantly replace blood cells in circulation.
What is a class of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled division of cells?
Rapid and uncontrolled cell division is cancer.
Warts result when certain viruses cause skin cells to reproduce at a high rate This rapid reproduction of skin cells is due to the viruses stimulating?
Mitotic cell division<3
How is uncontrolled cell division is dangerous in organisms?
The downside of cell division is that oncogene* may develop and lead to cancer. In the long term this is unavoidable.Cell division, also results in the cells having shorter chromosomes. Over a lifetime this results in aging* www.dictionary.com definition: A gene that causes the transformation of normal cells into cancerous tumour cells, especially a viral gene that transforms a host cell into a tumour cell.
Which situation indicates that a disruption of homeostasis has taken place?
A rapid rise in the number of red blood cells
How do mice get tumors?
Mice get tumors in the say way humans get tumors. Anything that causes the unchecked rapid division of cells will cause cancer.
Which layer are the cells undergoing mitosis?
The cells in the corpus layer region undergo rapid mitosis
Does cell division occur at the same rate in skin cells as in blood cells?
No, cell division does not occur at the same rate in skin cells as in blood cells. Skin cells undergo continuous division, as they need to constantly replace old and damaged cells, while blood cells have shorter life spans and go through more rapid and frequent division to maintain an adequate supply in the bloodstream.
What is rapid division of a cell that invades and disrupts other cells?
Cancer.
After axonial injury regeneration in peripheral nerves is guided bywhat?
The Remaining Schwann Cells schwann cells, after injury and disruption to target, the remaining schwann cells undergo a rapid mitotic division until the target tissue is reached and the successful pathway is regenerated under the structural guidance of the schwann cells,
What are the locations in the body where cell populations undergo rapid mitosis?
Cells undergo rapid mitosis in the body in areas that feature a high turnover. Epithelial and endothelial cells constantly replicate to renew skin and vascular lining. Also, hematopoietic progenitor cells constantly replace blood cells in circulation.
Which cells cause rapid division of other lymphocytes?
The activated B cell then goes through a process of rapid division (termed clonal expansion) where many more copies of the cell are made.
What is a class of diseases characterized by the uncontrolled division of cells?
Rapid and uncontrolled cell division is cancer.
Cancer cells can reproduce rapidly because they?
Cancer cells can reproduce rapidly due to several factors, primarily related to alterations in their genetic makeup and disruptions in normal cellular processes. Some key reasons why cancer cells can proliferate rapidly include: Genetic Mutations: Cancer cells often acquire mutations in genes that control cell growth, division, and death. These mutations can lead to uncontrolled cell division, allowing cancer cells to multiply rapidly. Loss of Cell Cycle Regulation: Normal cells have regulatory mechanisms that control their division and growth, ensuring that they only replicate when needed. Cancer cells can lose these regulatory mechanisms, leading to unchecked cell division and rapid proliferation. Avoidance of Apoptosis: Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a natural process that eliminates damaged or abnormal cells. Cancer cells can acquire mutations that allow them to evade apoptosis, enabling them to survive and continue replicating. Angiogenesis: Cancer cells can stimulate the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) to supply nutrients and oxygen, facilitating their rapid growth and spread within the body. Immortality: Normal cells have a limited lifespan and eventually undergo senescence (cellular aging) or apoptosis. Cancer cells can become immortal, bypassing senescence and apoptosis, which allows them to continue dividing indefinitely. Altered Metabolism: Cancer cells often undergo metabolic changes that enable them to efficiently utilize nutrients and energy sources to support their rapid growth and proliferation. These factors, among others, contribute to the ability of cancer cells to reproduce rapidly and form tumors, leading to the progression of cancer.
