Skin cells, divide in a continuous manner that makes new skin cells to replace the skin cells we lost. Cells regulate their division by cyclins. Some cells divide faster when it supposed to stop dividing and this will lead to cancer disease.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The process of cell division occurs for many reasons. A single cell is divided into two which in turn they will be divided into four and so on. This corresponds to the process of cell division and cell reproduction. Cell division is  an unique characteristics in human beings. Interactions between signaling proteins produces checkpoints in the cell cycle to ensure that cells do not divide at improper times.

A protein named Cyclins plays a major role in the determination and the regulation of the cell division process. The division that occurs in the cell can be regulated by the this protein type. They acts as a switch for controlling the cell division process. They will signal the cells when to divide and when to stop. When any cell continues to divided even after it is signaled to stop they may lead to a disease called cancer.   These are different form the normal cells because they will be having their own growth factors that controls their growth and they will lose the normal controls on the cell cycle.

Olin [163]

Answer:

There are four fates for acetyl CoA in the human body. Here are all the fates of acetyl CoA:

Explanation:

1. Acetyl CoA in the mitochondria can be used in the electron transport chain to form CO₂ and water.

2. Acetyl CoA can synthesize ketonebodies which are oxidized for energy  in the liver.

3. Acetyl CoA outside of the mitochondria and inside the cytosol can also be used to make fatty acids from glucose.

4. Acetyl CoA in the cytoplasm will also go on to synthesize cholesterol.

Altogether, the functions of acetyl CoA in the body is diverse and multi functional. The cells in other parts of the body do most of these functions but the ketone bodies formed in the liver creates a large amount of ketone bodies that are transported elsewhere.
