Mendelian Genetics * Pea plants have several advantages for genetics. * Pea plants are available in many varieties with distinct heritable features (characters) with different variants (traits). * Another advantage of peas is that Mendel had strict control over which plants mated with which. * Each pea plant has male (stamens) and female (carpal) sexual organs. * In nature‚ pea plants typically self-fertilize‚ fertilizing ova with their own sperm.

membrane regulates the movement of water‚ nutrients and wastes into and out of the cell. Inside of the cell membrane are the working parts of the cell. At the center of the cell is the cell nucleus.

In addition to the nucleus‚ there are many organelles inside of the cell - small structures that help carry out the day-to-day operations of the cell. One important cellular organelle is the ribosome. Ribosomes

normal process is not only supplying the normal cells but also nourishes the cancer cells. Small cancers are unable to develop new blood vessels‚ however larger cancers can. The process of invasion occurs between the beginning of the event and development of obvious tumor‚ some mutated cells die while others reproduce. The tumor at this point continues to grow and reproduce. Breasts tissue is very vascular and very close located to lymph nodes. Cells break off from the original tumor and travel through
