Question
some cells have a contact - inhibition feedback mechanism that prevents the cells from replicating when other cells are touched. a diagram of cells with contact inhibition and cells without contact inhibition is shown. which statement best describes what will happen to cells in an organism that lack contact inhibition? the cells will continue to grow causing a tumor in the body. the cells will replicate normally, replacing body cells that die. the cells will replicate until the food supply for each cell is used causing each cell to die. the cells will stop replicating once one layer is produced, as other body cells will crowd them out.
La inhibición de contacto es un mecanismo que evita que las células se dividan cuando entran en contacto con otras células vecinas. Cuando este mecanismo falta, las células continúan dividiéndose descontroladamente, lo que puede conducir al desarrollo de tumores.
