What else can I help you with?
Cancer can result when cells retain too tight of control over the cell cycle?
That is incorrect. Cancer can result when cells lose control over the cell cycle and continue to divide uncontrollably. This uncontrolled cell division can lead to the formation of tumors.
Is squamous cell carcinoma cancer of the melanocytes of the skin?
Squamous cell skin cancer is also known as Bowen's disease, and this cancer is basically a tumor that develops on the skin. It is most often seen in people over the age of 50.
What are cancer mutations?
Some mutations cause cells to lose control over cell division
A change in DNA that can lead to the development of cancer?
A change in DNA that can lead to cancer is known as a mutation, which can occur in genes that regulate cell growth and division. For example, mutations in oncogenes can promote uncontrolled cell proliferation, while mutations in tumor suppressor genes can hinder the cell's ability to repair DNA damage or undergo programmed cell death. These genetic alterations can result from various factors, including environmental exposures, lifestyle choices, and inherited genetic predispositions. Accumulation of such mutations over time can disrupt normal cellular functions and ultimately lead to cancer development.
What organelle reconfigures molecules to make them active?
the Endoplasmic reticulum is the reconfigurer of molecules in the cell The molecules over here are packed sorted and sent to other respective organells. The ER id spread through out the cell and associated with the every other organelle in the cell. It maintains the synthesis of the molecules int he cell.
What is basal carcinoma?
That is a form of skin cancer linked to over-exposure to UV light.
What scientific hypotheses can be tested by a pulse-chase experiment?
Movement of molecules through a cell over time
Can you get cancer of the hair?
I dont believe so because cancer is a tumor caused by a bad cell that takes over good cells and it is impossible to get a tumor in the hair... so NO!
Cancer results from what type of damage to cells over time?
Cancer results from mutations in the DNA of cells that disrupt normal cellular control mechanisms. These mutations can be caused by factors such as exposure to carcinogens, genetic predisposition, or random errors during cell division. Over time, accumulation of these mutations leads to uncontrolled cell growth and the development of cancer.
Why can cancer be considered a disease of the cell cycle?
because cancer happens when control over the cell cycle has broken down the cell cycle is the series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide, and cancer is a disorder in which some of the body's cells lose the ability to control growth
How membrane is selectively permeable?
means that the cell membrane has some control over what can cross it, so that only certain molecules either enter or leave the cell
What happens if the cell cycle is not controlled?
If the cell cycle is not controlled, cells can begin to divide uncontrollably, leading to the formation of tumors and cancer. Without proper regulation, cells can also accumulate genetic mutations and damage, which can disrupt normal cellular function and potentially lead to diseases or cell death.
