What is the most essential element in bone marrow?
Question 8
8.
If a cancerous mutation occurs in a stem cell in the bone marrow, what process does the stem cell go through that would cause the differentiated cells it produces to also be cancerous?
Question 9

Consider:
How do mitosis and cell differentiation work together to produce and maintain a complex organism?
The rubric below shows point breakdown. Please be sure to include both of the roles - the role of mitosis and the role of cellular differentiation- in producing and maintaining complex organisms. Use the model to support your answer.
