Scientists developed the first successful human cell culture in vitro (grown in a lab) in the 1950s by removing cancer cells from a woman. This concept has allowed modern scientists to successfully grow organs. Which of the following answers best determines why there was success? Neurons send a signal to the cell to multiply. A large blood supply to the cell allows enough nutrients for growth. Cells are the basic unit of life and thus can regenerate if in a controlled environment. Cells cannot reproduce on their own, and the scientist manipulates them to grow.
