Description

Take a closer look at a very important topic of study in biology today: cancer. Examine healthy and cancerous cells through an interactive exercise that puts you in control of your own learning.

Assume the role of a doctor who must distinguish between healthy cells in one of the different stages of cell division versus abnormal cells that may indicate cancer. After identifying the cancerous cells, learn about common causes of cancer as well as the symptoms of lung cancer.

• Recognize abnormal cells in the cell cycle.
• Learn how cancer cells are produced by mutations that cause rapid, uncontrolled cell growth.
• Study the formation, structure, and organization of cells.
• Discover the symptoms of lung cancer.
• Identify the three leading causes of cancer.

App features:
• Take part in a hands-on, interactive investigation of cancerous cells.
• Watch animations that explain the growth of cancerous cells.
• Get step-by-step support as you identify mutant cells.
• Demonstrate what you learn by taking quizzes.
