Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What usually happens when cells come into contact with other cells?
A
they divide more quickly
B
they stop growing
C
they produce cyclins
D
they produce p53
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When cells come in contact with other cells, they usually stop their growth. This indicates that cells have the ability to continue or stop their growth. A similar thing happens when a skin is cut. The cells that are located along the edges of the injury are dividing and producing new cells rapidly.

Detailed explanation-2: -Normal cells “stop growing” when they come into contact with other cells. Proteins called “cyclins” help regulate the cell cycle. “Cancer” is a disorder in which some of the body’s cells lose the ability to control growth and division. Lack of control over “mitosis” is the cause of all cancers.

Detailed explanation-3: -When a cell comes into contact with another cell, the two cells attempt to change their locomotion in different directions to avoid a repeat of the same in the future. If they cannot avoid it, they cease their growth and division.

Detailed explanation-4: -If the cell is not grown in the interphase, cells cannot synthesize proteins needed for mitosis. So the process of mitosis cannot be carried in the cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Senescence-in which cells stop growing and dividing-results from serious stress and genetic damage, says study coauthor Stephen Elledge, a geneticist at Harvard Medical School.
