Question

how has the study of mitosis affected scientists knowledge of cancer? it led to a study of how to induce cancer cells to divide more rapidly. it led to an understanding of how cancer cells divide so rapidly. it led to the development of contact - inhibition regulators. it led to the discovery of how to prevent cancer cells from dividing.

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process of cell - division. Cancer cells divide rapidly through mitosis. Studying mitosis has helped scientists understand the mechanism behind the rapid division of cancer cells. Inducing more rapid division is not a goal, contact - inhibition regulators are not directly related to the study of mitosis in this context, and while prevention of cancer cell division is a long - term aim, the immediate impact of mitosis study is understanding the rapid division process.

Answer:

It led to an understanding of how cancer cells divide so rapidly.
