One difference between cancer cells and normal cells is that cancer cells

(A) are unable to synthesize DNA.

(B) are arrested at the S phase of the cell cycle.

(C) continue to divide even when they are tightly packed together.

(D) cannot function properly because they are affected by density-dependent inhibition.

Amount of DNA per nucleus over the cell division cycle.     At which point in the accompanying figure does MPF reach its highest activity during the cell division cycle? a) I b) II c) III d) IV
(a) the cell cycle is divided into different phases (referred to as M, G0, G1, S and G2); Can you account for what happens during the different parts of the cycle and out of it is checked? ( b) What is the difference between apoptosis and necrosis? ( c) What are caspases and what is their function in the cell?
Biopsies from aggressive cancers often have cells that contain several nuclei per cell when viewed through a microscope. Which scenario could explain how such a multinucleated cell might have come to be? (a) The cell underwent repeated mitosis with simultaneous cytokinesis. (b) The cell had multiple S phases before it entered mitosis. (c) The cell underwent repeated mitosis, but cytokinesis did not occur. (d) The cell underwent repeated cytokinesis but no mitosis. (e) The cell actually went through meiosis and not mitosis.
