Question

microtia is a congenital condition in which a child is born with an underdeveloped outer ear on one or both ears in the trimester of pregnancy. children born with microtia generally have a fully functioning inner ear but tend to suffer from a blocked external ear canal. many children with microtia can now be grown new ears in laboratories by using the childs own cells, which are then used to surgically repair the condition.
which of the following processes allows scientists to grow new ears for children with microtia?
a meiosis
b radiation therapy
c conjugation
d mitosis

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • La meiosis es un proceso de división celular que produce gametos (células sexuales) con mitad de cromosomas, no se usa para crecer tejidos.
  • La radioterapia se usa para destruir células cancerosas, no para generar nuevos órganos.
  • La conjugación es un proceso de transferencia genética en bacterias, no aplica para tejidos humanos.
  • La mitosis es la división celular que produce células idénticas a la madre, lo que permite el crecimiento y regeneración de tejidos y órganos como los oídos en laboratorio, usando células del propio paciente para generar el nuevo órgano.

Answer:

D. Mitosis
