- (AKS 1b1 / DOK 2) Patients with a genetic condition known as cystic fibrosis struggle with symptoms such as lung and digestive problems. The cells of patients with the disease do not transport water or other materials out of the cell efficiently. Therefore, patients' cells have a build up of water and other substances inside the cell. Which of the following BEST describes how cystic fibrosis impacts cells? O A. Cystic fibrosis affects the cell membrane increasing cellular transport and homeostasis B. Cystic fibrosis affects the lysosomes increasing cellular transport and homeostasis C. Cystic fibrosis affects the Golgi decreasing cellular transport and homeostasis D.

The most common causes of shock are massive blood loss and obstruction of blood flow. As a result of shock, there is a failure to provide cells with oxygen and nutrients. In this circumstance, cells swell and lysosomal membranes rupture, among other effects. Describe how energy is generated during shock and why cell structure becomes destabilized.arrow_forwardExplain the property that prevents normal cells from becoming cancerous.arrow_forward
