Warm Up #10 Biology 2
The following three questions refer to material you were to read in preparation for class. These questions require you to write a three or four sentence response. It is OK to answer 'I don't know' - but STATE WHY you are confused! (Don't just say 'I don't know' - you probably DO!)

Each minute, 300 million of your body cells die!!! (Don't worry - these cells are replaced by mitosis, or you would be dead in a very short time!) However, some of the body's cells last for years, and some divide every day. List three types of cells in your body you would think would be replaced frequently. List 2 types of cells you think would be replaced slowly, if at all. *
When cancer starts to spread throughout the body, one course of treatment is chemotherapy (read more about it here http://www.biology.iupui.edu/biocourses/N100/2k4goodfor6.html). One very obvious effect of chemotherapy is that people generally lose all of their hair a few weeks after the drugs enter their system. Why do you think chemotherapy drugs cause a person's hair to fall out? *
Tumors metastisize when they attract new blood vessel growth (angiogenesis) and escape to other parts of the body via the new blood vessel. Why might drugs called angiogenesis inhibitors be useful in stopping the spread of cancer ? *
