What happens if caspase is not present in a cell?
It depends on which caspase we are talking about - some of them are involved in cell apoptosis, some in inflammatory processes. So you will either have a decreased apoptotic and necrosis scenario, or decreased inflammatory pathways.
What is an example of compensatory hyperplasia?
an increase in the number of essentially normal cells examples : BPH benign prostatic hyperplasia is due to an increase in the number of glandular epithelial cells and stromal cells due to decreased apoptosis
Contrast apoptosis and cancer?
Cancer is the uncontrolled growth and division of cells. Apoptosis is a programmed cell death.
What is the difference between PCD and Apoptosis?
Apoptosis is a form of PCD. It is characterised by morphological and biochemical changes. These include cell condensation and fragmentation, and cleavage of DNA at particular sites. Blebbing is also observed in the plasma membrane during apoptosis.
The main proteases involved in apoptosis are?
caspases

Whether chemotherapy causes cell death by degeneration or apoptosis?
apoptosis
What do polar bodies use to self destruct in meiosis?
Apoptosis.
Apoptosis is tissue growth through cell multiplication?
No Apoptosis is the timed death of a cell
During apoptosis do a cell turn black?
During apoptosis do a cell turn black?
What does the cell proceed to do once apoptosis is triggered?
after apoptosis is triggered the cell procedes to die
What might happen if apoptosis did not occur in cells that have significant DNA damage?
Most likely cancer would arise if apoptosis did not occur in cells that have significant DNA damage.
What is an example of compensatory hyperplasia?
an increase in the number of essentially normal cells examples : BPH benign prostatic hyperplasia is due to an increase in the number of glandular epithelial cells and stromal cells due to decreased apoptosis
How would the pattern of apoptosis differ in a duck's webbed foot compared to the pattern of apoptosis in a mouse foot?
during apoptosis a cell goes throug a series of steps that lead to its death
What actors and actresses appeared in Apoptosis - 2012?

Contrast apoptosis and cancer?
Cancer is the uncontrolled growth and division of cells. Apoptosis is a programmed cell death.
Is apoptosis a feature of malignant cells?
No, that's the opposite, most malignant cells have lost their ability to undergo apoptosis.
