Take the CryoCall Challenge!
1. What does Cryopreservation mean?
Keep something in its original state Keep something in extreme low temperature Keep something in low temperature to slow down its development Keep something in low temperature to maintain its original state

4. What is this most difficult and basic problem in Cryopreservation?
In extreme low temperature, enzymes in the cell will denature and the cell will die The water content of the cell will expand in temperature below 4?C causing the cell membrane to burst The water content of the cell will freeze to form ice crystals that will disrupt the cell membrane In extreme low temperature, the DNA within the nuclear of the cell will denature
