Cancer can be described as a disease characterized by the cell cycle going out of control. discuss what it means for the cell cycle to be out of control. is it appropriate to connect cancer and the cell cycle? why or why not? my the cell cycle is a series of events that occur when the cell starts to seperate and replicate itself, and if cancer can be described as the cell cycle going out of contro, l it makes sense that the two connect to each other. the cell cycle going out of control means that the cells start to evolve and begin to repeatedly increase and reproduce.

Mike was adopted, and his biological family history is unknown. although he is healthy, he would like some understanding of his genetic makeup, including potential health risks and genes that he could pass on to his children. mike has heard about commercial laboratories that can compare segments of your dna to those of people with common hereditary diseases in order to give you some idea of how susceptible you are to the diseases. the results of these types of tests are highly inconclusive. if mike's dna showed that he shares similarities in a segment of dna with people who have a given disease, his chances of developing that disease or passing it on to his children may be slightly elevated, but they are not 100 percent. these tests can cost more than $2,500 and are not covered by many insurance companies. do you think that mike should undergo the genetic tests? explain your answer. what are the potential pros and cons of having such tests done? describe how the availability of these genetic tests might affect the frequency of genetic diseases in individuals and populations.

The scales shown in the introduction measure mass, or the amount of matter in a particular object. the scientific law of conservation of mass states that matter cannot be created or destroyed during a chemical reaction, but it can change from one form to another. did the simulation support this scientific law? explain why or why not.
