Chapter 9, Problem 4FIB
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Eukaryotic cells are more complex than prokaryotic ones because they have special organelles. An organism whose cells have a nucleus surrounded by a membrane and whose DNA is in collaboration with proteins is called eukaryotic cell. Checkpoints are control mechanism in cells which ensure proper division of cell.

- The cell cycle is highly regulated and involves many steps to ensure that a cell is ready to divide. For this reason, cells cycle between interphase and mitosis. Which of the following describes the consequence of a severe disruption of interphase in cells in healthy tissue? Disruption of interphase will have no effect on mitosis because they are two completely independent processes. Disruption of interphase will lead to a faster and more efficient mitotic cycle, which will result in increased cell division and tissue growth. Disruption of interphase will trigger the cell to switch to a mitotic phase and repeatedly divide, which will result in the massive proliferation of the cells and heightened tissue growth. Disruption of interphase will result in the cell being unable to synthesize proteins and organelles required to divide, which will result in the cell not passing key checkpoints and ceasing to divide.arrow_forwardThe cell cycle normally stops within the G1 phase of interphase unless the cell receives a go-ahead signal via certain control proteins. If that signal never arrives,the cell will switch into a permanently nondividing state. Select one: True Falsearrow_forwardSelect the phase of the cell cycle depicted in the image below where the paired chromosomes separate and move to opposite sides of the cell: prophase telophase interphase anaphase metaphasearrow_forward
- Draw diagrams for each phase of Mitosis in the correct order. Including Mitosis as part of the cell cycle is beneficial but not required. Identify the most important relevant details about each phase. There are at least 2 details or terms associated with each phase. Please use the proper names for parts such as centromeres, spindle fibres, etc.arrow_forwardThe cell cycle is an internally regulated process and not affected by external signals. True or false explain whyarrow_forwardA scientist is analyzing the effects of a newly discovered cellular compound. She obtains two samples of diploid cells (2n), each with the same number of cells, and places sample 1 in a saline solution and sample 2 in a saline solution containing the newly discovered compound. She then incubates the cells for 24 hours. A bar graph of the results is shown below. Explain how the compound most likely affected the cell’s progression through the cell cycle, and predict the relative number of cells found in each sample when the results were observed. Support your claims with evidence from the experiment.arrow_forward
- BPA is a chemical compound that has historically been used in themanufacture of plastic products. However, cells often mistake BPAcompounds for hormones that accelerate the cell cycle. Because ofthis, BPA is associated with an increased risk of certain cancers. Question: Why do you think that very small concentrations of BPA mighthave a large effect on the cell?arrow_forwardWhat is the correct order of phases in the cell cycle? G1, S, G2, interphase, and mitotic phase. The mitotic phase is divided into prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. G1, S, G2, and Mitotic phase, which contains 7 stages: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis, and interphase. G1, S, G2, Mitotic phase, which contains 6 stages: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. G1, S, G2, and the Mitotic phase, which is divided into mitosis, which contains 5 stages (prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase), and cytokinesis.arrow_forwardRead the discussion of the cell cycle, mitosis, and cytokinesis, pages 00-4to7.In the table below, describe briefly the major events of each part of the cell cycle.
