Unregulated and uncontrolled cell growth is the most common simple definition of cancer. Because of the many types of cancers and a huge range of possible symptoms, treatments are also very diverse. Type of treatment also depends on cancer stage at diagnosis, and the patient's overall health. Some forms of treatment:
• Chemotherapy-usage of chemicals (medications) that target rapidly uncontrolled dividing cells,
• Hormone therapy
• Immunotherapy-usage of the medications that boost the immune system
• Radiation therapy-usage of radiation to kill the cancer cells
• Surgery
• New approaches such as stem cell therapy or personalized therapy.
The fact that they do not dissolve shows that it is a lipid. This is further supported by the fact that the liquid remains collect to form a giant droplet. This occurs as oil/lipids are hydrophobic and thus tend to collect in clumps.
Ingestion of foreign substances by macrophages and yeast cells by an amoeba is known as <u>Phagocytosis</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Phagocytosis that is the name given to the process of ingestion of foreign particles by macrophages. In human body the white blood cells does this function. Macrophages is found in all the tissues. Any foreign particle entering the body is engulfed by this process hence protecting the organisms.
Once a bacteria enters the body it is at once detected and recognised as the foreign particle. Then it is attached to the phagocyte. Then it is engulfed into a vesicle called phagosome. Then this is killed by the process of phagocytosis.
Greater light intensity would mean a faster rate of photosynthesis in plants. photosynthesis takes in carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen. therefore, a greater light intensity would mean faster oxygen production
