Chapter 7, Problem 2TYK
PROCESS OF SCIENCE Which of the following results provided evidence of a discrete nuclear localization signal somewhere on the nucleoplasmin protein?
a. The nucleoplasmin protein was small and easily slipped through the nuclear pore complex.
b. After cleavage of the nucleoplasmin protein, only the tail segments appeared in the nucleus.
c. Removing the tail from the nucleoplasmin protein allowed the core segment to enter the nucleus.
d. The SRP bound only to the tail of the nucleoplasmin protein, not the core segment.

- 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.

At the onset of Anaphase B, you use your laser to bleach a stripe across all of the microtubules on one side of the spindle as shown by the dashed line. This does not hurt the function of the microtubules in any way, but the bleached, nonfluorescent subunits in the microtubules now serve to mark a fixed location relative to the (+) and (-) ends. pl. membr. spindle A. Label one of each of the following: kinetochore MT, astral MT, polar MT. Indicate (+) and (-) ends. B. As the cell progresses through anaphase B, do the bleached spots get closer to, further from, or stay the same distance from the spindle pole they are embedded in? Why? Do they get closer to, further from, or stay the same distance from the plasma membrane? Why?arrow_forwardVinblastine is a standard chemotherapeutic drug used to treat cancer.

He observed that the shape of a particular component within those cells, changed dependent on each cell's individual shape and size.

- How are proteins normally transported into a plant cell’s chloroplast, if they were originally synthesized on ribosomes present in the cytosol (not on the rough endoplasmic reticulum)? A. they are packaged into vesicles with v-SNARES for fusion with their target organelles C B. they are unfolded in the translocation channel, then refolded by chaperones** B mostly like C. they are secreted by the Golgi, captured by receptors, and absorbed by endosomes D. they must pass through the nuclear envelope by means of nuclear pores E. they can pass freely through large pores in the inner chloroplast membranearrow_forwardBriefly describe the molecular composition of the nucleoli and explain the function.
