What mutations occur during cell division?
mutation is change and it doesnt happen during division. You must have got confused
How might a lower than normal fibroblast cell population affect an individuals skin?
because the muscl is stronger
Where in the cell does cytoplasm occur?
Cytoplasm is the fluid that the cell is full of...
Reproduction would not occur if which part of a cell was removed?
The Cell Membrane
Where does most of the metabolic activity in a cell occur?
Most of the metabolic activity in the cell occur in the cell's cytoplasm, specifically in the mitochondria in eukaryotic (not bacterial or archaeal) cells.
What is the average life expectancy for hairy cell leukemia patients?
near normal
What causes hairy cell leukemia?
The cause of hairy cell leukemia is not specifically known
What cell does leukemia affect?
Hairy cell leukemia affects a type of white blood cell called the lymphocyte
What does Hairy cell leukemia affect?
Hairy cell leukemia affects a type of white blood cell called the lymphocyte
What might occur if the cell cycle is not controlled?
cancer
What is HCL or Hairy Cell Leukemia?
Hairy Cell Leukemia or HCL is a hematological malignancy and is a very rare form of leukemia accounting for less than 2% of leukemia cases. It effects men more than women.
What phase in a cell cycle does mitosis happen?
Normal cell activities occur not in mitosis, but in a cell cycle in a general. This part of cell cycle is called interphase. Mitosis starts when the cell starts dividing, not when a cell is carrying out normal function.
How does Hairy cell leukemia get its name?
It is called hairy cell leukemia because the cells have tiny hair-like projections when viewed under the microscope
What is the difference between the different types of leukemia especially what makes hairy cell leukemia different from others?
There are many different types of leukemia. Some are acute and some are more chronic. Hairy cell leukemia is one of the worst types. It matures faster than most.
What type of cancer is leukemia?
Leukemia is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. It specifically targets the body's blood-forming tissues, including the bone marrow and the lymphatic system. In leukemia, there is an abnormal production of white blood cells (leukocytes) in the bone marrow. These abnormal white blood cells, also known as leukemia cells, do not function properly and can crowd out normal blood cells, leading to various health complications. Leukemia is broadly classified into four main types based on how quickly the disease progresses and the type of white blood cells that are primarily affected: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL): This is a fast-growing type of leukemia that primarily affects immature lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. It often occurs in children and requires prompt treatment. Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML): AML is a rapidly progressing leukemia that affects myeloid cells, another type of white blood cell. It can occur in both children and adults. Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL): CLL is a slower-growing leukemia that primarily affects mature lymphocytes. It is more common in adults, especially older adults. Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML): CML is characterized by the presence of an abnormal chromosome known as the Philadelphia chromosome. It typically progresses more slowly than acute leukemias and can occur in all age groups. Leukemia disrupts the normal production of blood cells, which can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, frequent infections, easy bruising or bleeding, and anemia. Treatment for leukemia depends on the type and subtype of leukemia, the patient's overall health, and other factors. Treatments may include chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiation therapy, stem cell transplantation, and other specialized treatments tailored to the specific type of leukemia and the patient's condition.
Is there a Hairy Cell Leukemia Research Foundation?
Yes
What is the effect of toxins on a red blood cell?
