Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following sentences characterize programmed cell death Apoptosis?
A
.hydrophobic changes
B
Activation of endonucleases that cut DNA within nucleosomes
C
s. c and karyolysis is evident in a cell with eosinophilic cytoplasm
D
A type of death that mostly occurs
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Finally, apoptosis is a coordinated and often energy-dependent process that involves the activation of a group of cysteine proteases called “caspases” and a complex cascade of events that link the initiating stimuli to the final demise of the cell.

Detailed explanation-2: -Apoptosis is the process of programmed cell death. It is used during early development to eliminate unwanted cells; for example, those between the fingers of a developing hand. In adults, apoptosis is used to rid the body of cells that have been damaged beyond repair.

Detailed explanation-3: -The enzyme responsible for apoptotic DNA fragmentation is the Caspase-Activated DNase (CAD). CAD is normally inhibited by another protein, the Inhibitor of Caspase Activated DNase (ICAD).
