Which of the following describes the most likely property of cancer cells, other than un- controllable division? A inability of chromosomes to align during the metaphase B с D alteration of the cell cycle sequence inability to undergo apoptosis inability to form spindle fibers

Black men are more likely to get prostate cancer than other men. You are working on a prostate cancer project. You want to isolate cancer cells from a diseased prostate and culture the cells. Akilah, your lab partner uses a procedure to isolate the prostate cancer cells. Write up a procedure to isolate prostate cancer cells from human prostates You decide you want to culture the cells for various types of biological analysis. Write up the procedure used to culture the prostate cancer cells in your own words. You froze some of the prostate cancer cells for future experiments. How did you freeze the cells?

Cancer occurs when genes that regulate the cell cycle are mutated. True False

Interphase is _________   Cell division that results in two identical daughter cells   A physical trait that an individual exhibits   The growth and development phase of the cell cycle   An individual with two copies of the same allele for a specific trait   A variant of a gene

Cancer is a disease that results in uncontrolled cell division. Cancer cells have lost their ability to regulate the cell cycle Which of the following mutations could be found in cancer cells. Select all that apply. A large deletion mutation in a gene that represses cell division large deletion mutation in a gene that stimulates cell division A large deletion mutation in a gene for DNA polymerase A large deletion mutation in a gene that is required to halt cell cycle while the cell repairs its DNA
