make a claim about the effects of external signals on cell division.
When a mitogen binds to a receptor on a cell, the signal is transported via a signaling pathway into the cell and a new cell cycle can start. Describe this signal path. Explain what would happen to this one signal path if the cell simultaneously detects that there is damaged DNA in the cell.
