What statement about Cdks/Cyclins below is false? A) Cyclins phosphorylate Cdks B) Cdks are kinases C) Cdk expression is constant during the cell cycle D) Cyclin expression fluctuates during the cell cycle E) Cdk activity fluctuates during the cell cycle
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:
What statement about Cdks/Cyclins below is false?
Cell cycle includes two phases; interphase and M phase. Interphase includes G1, S and G2 phases. In G1 phase, a cell prepares itself to undergo S phase or the synthesis phase wherein the replication of DNA takes place. During S-phase, the number of chromosome doubles in the cell. S phase is followed by G2 phase wherein the cell prepares itself for undergoing division or M-phase.
The regulation of different phases is controlled by cyclin and Cdks.
