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 a cell - division process. Understanding how cancer cells divide rapidly is related to the study of mitosis. Contact - inhibition regulators are related to cell growth control and not directly the study of mitosis in relation to cancer. Inducing cancer cells to divide more rapidly is counter - intuitive in cancer research. Preventing cancer cells from dividing is a later application aspect rather than a fundamental understanding from mitosis study.

Answer:

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