Genome BOW 9: Death

This chapter starts out with how when you learn new things at the same time you will lose old things you learned before. Mutation is also a cause of disease. Detecting cancer early in development of tumor is important because the larger the tumor becomes the more likely it is going to suffer the next mutation because of probability and rapid proliferation of inside the tumor can lead to mistakes also called as mutation. Apoptosiss has a role on the function that the elimination of cancer cells, it is useful in fighting the ordinary infectious disease. If a cell detects that it had been infected with a virus it can kill itself for good of the body as a whole. It can be also be useful in preventing mutiny than cancer like genetic distortion of the kind induced by selfish tanspoon. Apoptosis has no central planning and no bodily politburo to decide who should die and live. Apoptosis will kill itself if infected, cancerous or genetically mischievous, a cell will die by definition. So there is understanding of how apoptosis evolves.
