Which statement is an example of cell division at work?
dybincka [34]

Explanation:

C. A cut in skin heals

This process involves wound healing and tissue regeneration of somatic cells via mitosis.

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. To produce daughter cells during cell division, the chromosomes (total number of chromosomes (2n)) are copied before the cell splits into two daughter cells.

This process is known as mitosis, and occurs in cell division and growth processes. Two new nuclei are formed, along with identical cells. These are the same as the parent cell and the chromosome number (2n) is maintained. This process occurs regularly in somatic cells for growth, or  to repair damaged tissue.

DCCD (dicyclohexylcarbodiimide) inhibits oxidative phosphorylation when the substrate is mitochondrial NADH. DCCD is a drug that
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

A) Decreases cellular energy production

B) DCCD also affects K+ transport

Explanation:

A) Consequences are of DCCD on cellular energy production: <em>Decreases cellular energy production</em>

ATP-synthase pump is composed of two subunits: F1 catalytic subunit that synthesizes ATP, and F0 proton pumping subunits, that transport H+ through the membrane. F1 subunit might act independently of F0 to produce ATP, but this molecule can not be released without H+ gradient, which generates a movement necessary for ATP release from the catalytic center.

When any of the parts composing F0 react with DCCD, the subunit can not transport H+ through the membrane. DCCD inhibits the enzyme activity by blocking the protons´ flow.

As DCCD blocks the protons´ flow, and the protons´ flow is necessary to release the ATP molecule from the F1 subunit, no other ADP + Pi can enter to F1 subunit, and the production of ATP stops.

B) Other cellular effects of DCCD

There seem to be other effects of DCCD on cell activity, some of which are still under study. To name a few:

  • Diimide from DCCD seems to stimulate cytochrome b reduction and inhibits its reoxidation by ferricyanide.
  • When exposing the cell to high concentrations of DCCD for a long time, might occur an alteration in the electron transporting chain
  • Inhibition of ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase activity when exposing the cell to high concentrations of DCCD.
  • Inhibition of K+ transport, associated with the inhibition of H+ transport.

Concerning the effect of DCCD on the K+ transport, DCCD stops the extrusion of H+ and the consequent intrusion of K+.

DCCD strongly inhibits the simultaneous flow of H+ and K+. First, it inhibits H+ flow, acidification of the environment stops, but at this point, K+ keeps moving through the membrane. Once the H+ flow has ceased, the K+ flow slowly decreases until it finally stops moving. There is a lag time in the DCCD effect on K+ flow to the instantaneous effect on H+ flow.

Tom [10]

Sickle cell disorder is an inherited blood disease featured by defective hemoglobin. The condition affects the hemoglobin, or the red blood cells, and their tendency to conduct oxygen. The normal hemoglobin cells are round, smooth, and flexible, and thus, they can travel via the vessels in the body effortlessly.  

On the other hand, the sickle cell hemoglobin cells are sticky and stiff and form a sickle, C shape, when they lose their oxygen. These cells combine together, and cannot effortlessly move through the blood vessels.
