What did you include in your response? Medications can be tested on cell cultures instead of being injected into patients unnecessarily. Cancer cells continue to grow in the cultures uncontrollably allowing scientists to test multiple medications on the cancer cells. Specific treatments that are shown to fight the growth of cancer cells in the culture can be used on patients. Cultures are safer to use than injections of unneeded medications into patients.

Answer 1

Answer:

The statements are correct.

Explanation:

Cell culture is a technique widely used in molecular biology where cell lines are grown in controlled conditions, thus allowing to make experiments and to test compounds that may result useful to treat diverse diseases, including cancer.

Immortalized cell lines are characterized for their ability to proliferate indefinitely which are derived from oncogenic tissues. In cancer research, these lines are used as models to test different drugs and to study cellular mechanisms associated with cancer progression including, among others, proliferation, invasiveness, vascularization, etc. In addition, the mechanisms associated with the death of cancer cells such as, for instance, apoptosis, may also be studied by using immortalized lines.

Where are metamorphic rocks likely to form?

Answers

Answer:

You would most likely find metamorphic rocks if you dug deep into the earth. This is because these types of rocks form in areas of extremely high heat and pressure.

Answer: deep in planets crust

Explanation:

Although metamorphic rocks typically form deep in the planet’s crust, they are often exposed on the surface of the Earth. This happens due to geologic uplift and the erosion of the rock and soil above them. At the surface, metamorphic rocks will be exposed to weathering processes and may break down into sediment.

Which of the graphs below represents this information as a function? Read the following excerpt from The Gift of the Magi and answer the question. For there lay The Combs--the set of combs, side and back, that Della had worshipped long in a Broadway window. Beautiful combs, pure tortoise shell, with jewelled rims--just the shade to wear in the beautiful vanished hair. They were expensive combs, she knew, and her heart had simply craved and yearned over them without the least hope of possession. And now, they were hers, but the tresses that should have adorned the coveted adornments were gone. But she hugged them to her bosom, and at length she was able to look up with dim eyes and a smile and say: "My hair grows so fast, Jim! And them Della leaped up like a little singed cat and cried, "Oh, oh!" Jim had not yet seen his beautiful present. She held it out to him eagerly upon her open palm. The dull precious metal seemed to flash with a reflection of her bright and ardent spirit."Isn't it a dandy, Jim? I hunted all over town to find it. You'll have to look at the time a hundred times a day now. Give me your watch. I want to see how it looks on it." Instead of obeying, Jim tumbled down on the couch and put his hands under the back of his head and smiled."Della," said he, "let's put our Christmas presents away and keep 'em a while. They're too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs. And now suppose you put the chops on." The magi, as you know, were wise men--wonderfully wise men--who brought gifts to the Babe in the manger. They invented the art of giving Christmas presents.

Everywhere they are wisest. They are the magi.
