Question
Chapter 9, Problem 9TY
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Cells respond to the changing environment such as light, water, nutrient that causes some changes in cell, which helps in adapting to the new environment. Cells; can also generate signal to stop their own life processes, which results into the programmed cell death.

Assuming that apoptosis fails and the cell continues through several cell cycles... what would the repercussions of this be?
A. a tumor (possibly malignant) may develop- result of cells actively dividing when they are not supposed to
B. organ failure
C. too many cells would be in G0 and not carrying out daily functions

a. have been implicated in cell locomotion
b. contain integrins that develop transient interactions with the extracellular matrix
c. collect information about the chemical properties of the extracellular environment
d. transmit information to the cell interior that may lead to changes in cell adhesion, proliferation or survival
e. All of these are correct.
