The symbiotic relationship that exists between coral polyps and zooxanthellae is called what?
Commensalism
Can smokers polyps in colon develop years after a person has quit smoking?
There isn't a strict relationship between colon polyps and tabagism. They are more related to the feeding habits and some hereditary subjects. Smoking only can exacerbate that disease, but it is not the primary cause.
Why polyps and algae have symbiotic relationship?
Yes, they do; symbiont green algae are called zoochlorellae.
What is the association between Marfan Syndrome and Nasal Polyps?
There is no association.

They are polyps in children

small polyps
What are soft polyps?
what are soft polyps.
What is the difference between polyps and diverticula?
Polyps bulge inward and diverticular bulge outwards I believe the person that wrote the above answer hasit backwards. Polyps are outward growths like a pimple whereas diverticular are inward pockets that trap waste and can become infected.

What is the connection between polyps and colon cancer?
Polyps are abnormal growths that can occur in various parts of the body, including the colon (large intestine). While most polyps are benign (non-cancerous), some types of polyps, particularly adenomatous polyps, have the potential to develop into colon cancer over time. Here's the connection between polyps and colon cancer: Adenomatous Polyps: Adenomatous polyps are a type of polyp that can develop in the lining of the colon or rectum. These polyps are considered precancerous because they contain cells that have the potential to become cancerous over time. Adenomatous polyps are the most common type of polyp associated with the development of colon cancer. Progression to Cancer: If adenomatous polyps are left untreated, they may continue to grow and develop genetic mutations that can lead to the transformation of normal cells into cancerous cells. Over time, some adenomatous polyps can progress to become colon cancer. The risk of progression to cancer depends on factors such as the size, number, and histology (cellular characteristics) of the polyps. Screening and Prevention: The detection and removal of adenomatous polyps through screening tests such as colonoscopy can help prevent the development of colon cancer. During a colonoscopy, if adenomatous polyps are found, they can be removed (polypectomy) before they have the opportunity to become cancerous. Regular screening for colon cancer is recommended for individuals at average risk, typically starting at age 50, or earlier for those with certain risk factors. Other Types of Polyps: While adenomatous polyps are the primary concern for colon cancer development, other types of polyps, such as hyperplastic polyps and inflammatory polyps, are typically benign and do not have a significant risk of progressing to cancer. However, some rare types of polyps, such as serrated polyps, may also have a small risk of developing into colon cancer.
How do polyps swim?
polyps are sessile, therefore they do not move
