You are hiking in the Colorado Rockies in the summer. You start hiking at 6,000 feet in
a warm grassland full of elk, as you climb the mountain you pass through forests from
8,000-10,000 feet with lots of deer. Above 10,000 feet you are in an alpine tundra with
furry little marmots.
What types of plants would you expect to find in an alpine tundra?
a. Tall trees
b. Aquatic plants
c. Tall grasses
d. Lichens and mosses
e. Cactus

You have a series of cells, all of which were derived from tumors, and you first need
to find out which ones are malignant. What could you do?
A) Time their cell cycles.
B) See which ones are not overproliferating.
