Which of the following statements is a lie?Select one: a. If damaged DNA is detected during the cell cycle, negative regulation is responsible in stopping the cell cycle. b. There are four cyclin proteins involved in the positive regulation of the cell cycle and they have fluctuating levels. c. To activate cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks), they must bind to another kinase.
Which of the following statements is true regarding cell cycle regulators? a. Cyclins determine which proteins each Cdks will act on. b. Cdks check the DNA for damage and repairs it. c. Cyclin binding to Cdks will result to Cdk inactivation. d. Cyclin levels remain constant through the cell cycle.
