Question

Which of the following hypotheses is BEST supported by observing cancer cells in a culture

A. The cancer cells do not exhibit density dependent inhabition

B. The cancer cells produce molecules that inhibit the growth factors reguired for cell division

C. The cancer cells spend the majority of their time in the G0 phase

D. The cancer cells exhibit Anchorage dependence

Answer 1

Answer: A. The cancer cells do not exhibit density dependent inhibition

Step-by-step explanation:

Density-dependent inhibition is defined as "the stopping of the division of cells in case of a crowded environment." As you may know, cancer cells are rapidly reproducing cells in a specific area and they reproduce regardless of whether there's enough room or not. This is how tumors are formed.

Answer 2

The cancer cells produce molecules that inhibit the growth factors reguired for cell division
