The eukaryotic cell at left is in the processof cytoplasmic division. Is this cell from aplant or an animal? How do you know?
How long does it take for a cell to take one complete cycle? The answer varies on the type of cell and the species. For instance, a liver cell completes its cell cycle for over 22 hours (Becker and Lane 1965) while other somatic cell lasts to about 18 hours. Can you cite other types of cells that undergo cell cycle and the time it takes to complete the cycle? List five below.
Which cell types require the process of binary fission in order to separate chromosomes equally to both daughter cells, since they are not able to use either close mitosis or open mitosis?
animal cells
prokaryotic cells
fungal cells
eukaryotic cells
plant cells

- 1) what is meant by “there is no such thing as a typical cell?” 2) which part of the cell cycle does the cell spend the least amount of time in? Why do u think that is? 3) why would a cell ever want to destroy itself? 4) how long does a cell live before it undergoes mitosis? 5) if cells can constantly replace themselves, why is a heart attack (which kills cardiac muscle cells) so devastating? 6) what type of cells never undergo mitosis? 7) what makes stem cells particularly interesting to researchers? 8) how might stem cells be used to repair brain or heart damage, even though these cells do not undergo mitosis? 9) why do you think beauty experts would also be interested in stem cells? 10) what is the connection between cancer and mitosis? 11) why is it so difficult for your body to battle cancer? 12) why does you hair fall out of the chemotherapy?arrow_forwardyou look under a microscope at a cell undergoing mitosis and you see a cell plate developing across the middle of the cell and nuclei forming on either side of the cell plate. The cell is most likely an animal cell in the S phase of the cell cycle a bacterial cell dividing a plant cell in cytokinesis an animal cell in cytokinesisarrow_forwardYou discover a substance that prevents the motor protein in a centromere from attaching to a spindle fiber. What would be a consequence of adding this substance to a cell during mitosis? Group of answer choices A) the chromatin would not coil up to form condensed chromosomes B) the nuclear membrane would not break down C) sister chromatids would not form D) sister chromatids would fail to separatearrow_forward
- You view a mature, living plant cell such as an epidermal cell under the light microscope. You view the cell at sufficiently-high magnification and you have also stained the cell for chromatin. The cell has a nucleus, yet you cannot see chromosomes, at least in their typical ’sausage-formed’ shape as we all know them from textbooks. Why is that?arrow_forwardThe diagram shows a cell that has just doubled its genetic material. Which statement correctly describes the cell's current stage in the cell cycle? centrosomes nuclear envelope chromatin The cell is in cytokinesis The cell is in metaphase The cell is in anaphase The cell is in interphasearrow_forwardThe cells labeled A came from a human cheek. The cells labeled B came from an aquatic plant called Elodea. Which is a difference you can see in these images? 1. there is only one cheek cell but many Elodea cells 2. the cheek cells have organelles, the Elodea cells do not 3. all these choices are correct 4. the cheek cells are eukaryotic, the Elodea cells are prokaryotic 5.the cheek cells have no cell wall, the Elodea cells doarrow_forward

Which statement describes one way in which the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus work together? The Golgi apparatus assembles mRNA, and the endoplasmic reticulum translates them into proteins. The endoplasmic reticulum assembles mRNA molecules, and the Golgi apparatus translates them into proteins. The Golgi apparatus assembles proteins, and the endoplasmic reticulum modifies and packages them.
