Introduction
Does cell cycle control matter? If you ask an oncologist – a doctor who treats cancer patients – she or he will likely answer with a resounding yes.
Cancer is basically a disease of uncontrolled cell division. Its development and progression are usually linked to a series of changes in the activity of cell cycle regulators. For example, inhibitors of the cell cycle keep cells from dividing when conditions aren’t right, so too little activity of these inhibitors can promote cancer. Similarly, positive regulators of cell division can lead to cancer if they are too active. In most cases, these changes in activity are due to mutations in the genes that encode cell cycle regulator proteins.
Here, we’ll look in more detail at what's wrong with cancer cells. We'll also see how abnormal forms of cell cycle regulators can contribute to cancer.
What’s wrong with cancer cells?
Cancer cells behave differently than normal cells in the body. Many of these differences are related to cell division behavior.
For example, cancer cells can multiply in culture (outside of the body in a dish) without any growth factors, or growth-stimulating protein signals, being added. This is different from normal cells, which need growth factors to grow in culture.
Cancer cells may make their own growth factors, have growth factor pathways that are stuck in the "on" position, or, in the context of the body, even trick neighboring cells into producing growth factors to sustain them^1

Normal cells in a culture dish will not divide without the addition of growth factors.
Cancer cells in a culture dish will divide whether growth factors are provided or not.
Cancer cells also ignore signals that should cause them to stop dividing. For instance, when normal cells grown in a dish are crowded by neighbors on all sides, they will no longer divide. Cancer cells, in contrast, keep dividing and pile on top of each other in lumpy layers.
The environment in a dish is different from the environment in the human body, but scientists think that the loss of contact inhibition in plate-grown cancer cells reflects the loss of a mechanism that normally maintains tissue balance in the body^2

squared.
Another hallmark of cancer cells is their "replicative immortality," a fancy term for the fact that they can divide many more times than a normal cell of the body. In general, human cells can go through only about 40-60 rounds of division before they lose the capacity to divide, "grow old," and eventually die^3

cubed.
Cancer cells can divide many more times than this, largely because they express an enzyme called telomerase, which reverses the wearing down of chromosome ends that normally happens during each cell division^4

Cancer cells are also different from normal cells in other ways that aren’t directly cell cycle-related. These differences help them grow, divide, and form tumors. For instance, cancer cells gain the ability to migrate to other parts of the body, a process called metastasis, and to promote growth of new blood vessels, a process called angiogenesis (which gives tumor cells a source of oxygen and nutrients). Cancer cells also fail to undergo programmed cell death, or apoptosis, under conditions when normal cells would (e.g., due to DNA damage). In addition, emerging research shows that cancer cells may undergo metabolic changes that support increased cell growth and division^5

Earth's core is the source of the energy that drives the movement of tectonic plates. Which two processes help transfer this energy outward to earth's crust?
Answer:The two processes are CONDUCTION and CONVECTION
Explanation:
The Energy produced in the Earth core is generated by Sun, gravitational force , radioactive decay, and the Earth' rotation, To maintain balance in the earth, The processes of CONDUCTION and CONVECTION transfer energy (HEAT) to Earth's interior, which also helps the movement of tectonic plates at a constant rate.
Now, inside the earth mantle is made up of hot solid rock and because Conduction occurs more in solids, Its currents helps the continuous transfer of heat energy from the warmer mantle at the bottom to the cooler mantle at the top While Convection currents in the core move thermal energy causing the rising and sinking of warm and cooler molten rock inside Earth, thereby maintaining the motion of tectonic plates and creating a balance in the earth.
Answer:
Conduction and Convection

Explain how humans are able to produce one type of hemoglobin as they develop in utero, then produce another to use after birth
Answer:
Hemoglobin F has a different composition from the adult forms of hemoglobin, which allows it to bind (or attach to) oxygen more strongly. This way, the developing fetus is able to retrieve oxygen from the mother's bloodstream, which occurs through the placenta found in the mother's uterus.

The rate at which blood flows through the human body can change in response to multiple factors. Which statement describes one of these factors and the effect it has on blood flow?
A. The narrowing of blood vessels increases pressure and leads to faster blood flow
B. High blood viscosity increases the resistance in the blood vessels and leads to faster blood flow.
C. Low blood pH decreases the rate of diffusion through the blood vessels and leads to slower blood flow.
D. The changing of the shape of red blood cells to a crescent shape decreases resistance and leads to faster blood flow.
Explain why this is the correct answer and why the other ones are wrong:
Answer:
B
viscosity of blood causes an increased resistance in the blood vessels and
leads to slow blood flow
Explanation:
Viscosity refers to the thickness of blood. This thickness is caused by the number of red
blood cells. Thick blood travels through blood vessels at a slower rate than thin blood

Answer:
QUESTION:
Which problem do you think contributes most to water scarcity?
ANSWER:
Water shortages may be caused by climate change, such as altered weather patterns including droughts or floods, increased pollution, and increased human demand and overuse of water. A water crisis is a situation where the available potable, unpolluted water within a region is less than that region's demand.

Which of the following descriptions is MOST plausible for an ancestor of bats? An animal with-
A: two limbs and webbed toes.
B: a long tail that ate insects and lived in forests.
C: four limbs and a membrane consistent with gliding.
D: four fins that glided through the water.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Four limbs and a membrane consistent with gliding are the structures found in ancestors of bats. Therefore, option (C) is correct
What is patagium?A membrane called the patagium helps animals glide or fly. Bats, birds, dromaeosaurs, pterosaurs, gliding mammals, flying lizards, and flying frogs have the structure. The uropatagium (particularly in bats) or interfemoral membrane connects an animal's hind limbs.
Bats' wing skin extends from the abdomen to the tip of each digit, connecting the forelimb to the body. Bat patagiums have four parts:
Propatagium: neck-to-first-digit patagium.Dactylopatagium: digits.Plagiopatagium: between final digit and hindlimbs.Uropatagium: posterior flap between hindlimbs.Therefore, option (C) is correct.
