Changes that move cells toward cancer but where there is no direct DNA modification is a characteristics of which of step of the multistage model of carcinogenesis?
a. |
Promotion |
|
b. |
Initiation |
|
c. |
Mutation |
|
d. |
Lactation |
the right option is Promotion
The reversible stage of promotion does not involve changes in the structure of DNA but rather in the expression of the genome mediated through promoter-receptor interactions

Cancer cells produce 2 lactate, 1NADH and 4 ATP from glucose. c. Many cancer cells produce less energy than ‘healthy’ body cells because their mitochondria have been lost during cell division. d. Cancer cells produce less energy than healthy body cells due to a malfunction of their TCA cycle. e. Cancer cells are unable...
