The fluorescence microscopy images below show the same cell imaged for a tubulin-GFP fusion protein and a fluorescent DNA stain. The rightmost image is a digital merger of the first two. Tubulin-GFP DNA stain Merged image At this stage in the cell cycle, the mitotic CDK complex has reached peak activity. In four or fewer sentences, describe how this mitotic CDK activity results in: 1) protease cleavage of cohesin and 2) eventual targeting of mitotic cyclins for degradation.

Explain the concept of loss of heterozygosity (LOH). Why do most cancer cells exhibit LOH of one or more genes? How does failure of the spindle assembly checkpoint lead to loss of heterozygosity?
Figure 28.11 depicts the eukaryotic cell cycle. Many cell types â€œexitâ€� the cell cycle and donâ€™t divide for prolonged periods, a state termedG0; some, for example neurons, never divide again. a. In what stage of the cell cycle do you suppose a cell might be when it exits the cell cycle and enters G0? b. The cell cycle is controlled by checkpoints, cyclins, and CDKs. Describe how biochemical events involving cyclins and CDKs might control passage of a dividing cell through the cell cycle.
Biologists have long been interested in the effects of radiation on cells. In one experiment, researchers examined the effect of radium on mitosis of chick embryo cells growing in culture. A population of experimental cells was examined under the microscope for the number of cells in telophase (as a measure of mitosis occurring) before, during, and after exposure to radium. The results are shown in the Figure. What is the effect of radium exposure on mitosis? Source: R. G. Canti and M. Donaldson. 1926. The effect of radium on mitosis in vitro.

could you explain a bit more what this sentences mean: The information displayed demonstrates a significant increase in cell proliferation inside the dentate gyrus of mice that were locked in voluntary exercise compared to the control group. The use of 5-Bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU), a thymidine analog, permits the following of recently formed cells because it is incorporated into the DNA of dividing cells amid the S stage of the cell cycle. The immunocytochemical examination uncovered a 67% increase in BrdU-labeled cells within the running group, meaning upgraded neurogenesis, which is factually noteworthy as shown by the p-value of 0.0001. The observation that the runner group effectively utilized the running wheels given in their cages relates to the increment in BrdU-labeled cells.

It was clear from the early days of studying devel-opment that certain “morphogenetic” substances werepresent in the egg and segregated asymmetrically intocells of the developing embryo. One such investigationin ascidian (sea squirt) embryos examined endodermalalkaline phosphatase, which could be visualized by a his-tochemical stain. Treatment of embryos with cytochalasinB stopped cell division, but did not block expression ofalkaline phosphatase at the appropriate time. Treatmentwith actinomycin D, which blocks transcription, did notinterfere with expression of alkaline phosphatase. Treat-ment with puromycin, which blocks translation, elim-inated expression of alkaline phosphatase. What is thelikely nature of the morphogenetic substance that givesrise to alkaline phosphatase?
