Dr. William's lab is studying cell division on a mutant primary mouse cell line. Interestingly the drug, Colchicine has no effect on any types of tubulin subunits expressed by the cell line. Which of the following conditions/s will arrest the cell line’s cell division during mitosis? Group of answer choices (B) and (C) are correct (A) and (C) are correct (A) High concentration of Colchicine (B) Low concentration of Colchicine (C) Taxol
Oogenesis
The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase.
Cell Division
Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
Cell division is the production of new daughter cells from the mother cell. There are usually two types of cell division that are- mitosis and meiosis. During cell division chromosomes (or chromatids or genetic material) are equally distributed within the two daughter cells.
