@SmokeyBrown

SmokeyBrown:

I suppose "body tissues would not repair themselves" would be one of the answers I'm not sure about what the other two might be. Mitosis is related to asexual reproduction. Actually, it's dependent on mitosis, so that's another one. As for the third answer... I'm really not sure

bill533:

only C and D ?

SmokeyBrown:

Well, the question asks for three effects. I'm just not sure what the third one is

SmokeyBrown:

So the first one would be prophase, then after metaphase is anaphase and telophase, in that order. The final products are the daughter cells

bill533:

In your own words, tell me: What is Cancer and what does it have to do with cells ?

SmokeyBrown:

I guess I'd say that cancer is a condition that comes about when cells fail to self-terminate on schedule and instead multiply at an abnormally high rate, while not serving any useful functions. This results in the growth of tumors which can inhibit other cells' abilities to properly perform their functions

bill533:

Which of the following do complex organisms use to regenerate body parts? A. mitosis B. translation C. fertilization D. transcription

SmokeyBrown:

I think that'd be mitosis, cell replication

bill533:

do you think it's C ?

bill533:

DNA replication results in two DNA molecules, A. each with two new strands. B. one with two new strands and the other with two original strands. C. each with one new strand and one original strand. D. each with two original strands.

SmokeyBrown:

I think it'd be B, since one strand comes from the original and one strand is a copy
