Question

Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment that uses drugs to

kill cancer cells. However, it is problematic, because the
drugs also kill every healthy cell that they contact.
How could nanotechnology best be used to improve the
treatment of cancer with chemotherapy?
O A nanometer-size carrier could be designed to bring
the chemotherapy drugs only to cancer cells.
O A nano carbon wire could be designed that would aid
in the manufacture of chemotherapy drugs.
O A quantum dot could be used to watch where the
chemotherapy drugs go in the body.
O Biomaterials could be made that would allow for cell
growth within the cancer cells so that they are easier
to find.

Answer 2

Answer: A nanometer-size carrier could be designed to bring the chemotherapy drugs only to cancer cells.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem with chemotherapy as noted by the text above, is that the drugs used target both living and cancer cells and kills them regardless.

The solution therefore, would be to find a way to ensure that chemotherapy targeted only the cancer cells.

One way to do that is to design a nanometer sized carrier that would take the drugs to cancer cells alone so that they would kill only the canerous cells and leave the healthy ones.
