Question
when a cell stops growing because it touches another cell, thats called...
m. contact inhibition
n. metastasis
o. cancer
p. invasive growth
what happens during the s phase of interphase?
s. nuclear envelope disappears
t. it is the last checkpoint before mitosis
u. dna replicates
v. it is a phase of rest for the cell where nothing occurs
For the first question: Contact inhibition is the phenomenon where normal cells stop growing when they come into contact with other cells. Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells. Cancer is a general term for a group of diseases. Invasive growth is related to abnormal cell growth patterns.
For the second question: During the S phase (synthesis phase) of interphase, DNA replicates. The nuclear envelope disappears during mitosis (not S phase). The last checkpoint before mitosis is the G2 checkpoint. The cell is not at rest in the S phase as DNA replication is occurring.
