What do these two conditions have in common: webbed fingers and
toes in humans and the development of cancer cells?
A. Both are caused by excessive cell growth.
B. Both are caused by a loss of apoptosis.
C. Both are a result of exposure to carcinogenic compounds.
D. Both are caused by excessive fat- soluble vitamin levels.
E. Both are caused by infections from cancer- associated viruses
Webbed fingers and toes are caused by a loss of apoptosis. Apoptosis is a cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms (cell's suicide -> programmed cell death).
the correct option is b..due to loss of apoptosis.. in cancer cell death does not occur and cells increase in number also webbed fingers occur when extra cells are not removed...
