What specific term is used to describe the "turning on" of an enzyme ?

8 0

The feedback inhibitor or final product is used to describe the "turning on" of an enzyme. This happens when the final product's concentration is low, the feedback inhibitor, which is also the final product, will move out from the allosteric site in a reaction which is reversible.

Looking at the onion root tip under the microscope you can see large, rectangular cells with visible distinct cell walls surrounding it (cells have a more regular shape because of the wall). Inside the cells, you can notice darkly stained nucleus, large vacuoles at the center and sometimes small granules within the cytoplasm. Looking the onion root tip under the microscope is often the way to observe mitosis. Usually, you cannot see organelles such as mitochondria, ribosomes, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, centrioles and Golgi body as they appear translucent and because are too small to be seen under the light microscope (electron microscope required). Also, chloroplasts are not present in an onion cell because it is not a photosynthetic cell.

Answer:

There is no diagram provided so I will just explain the mitotic cell cycle.

Here’s a quick basic arrangement in chronological order interphase, mitosis, and finally cytokinesis.

So first you start with interphase which consist of three phases G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase. Cellular growth occurs in G1 phase of interphase this is followed by S phase which is simply when DNA replication occurs. Final this is followed by G2 phase or further growth in preparation for mitosis and/or meiosis.

I am only going to explain mitosis but just so I don’t confuse you meiosis can also follow interphase. So mitosis consist of four phases. Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Prophase: in this phase the nuclear membrane would dissipate and the chromosomes would condense.

Metaphase: then in metaphase the chromosomes would align in the center of the cell and spindle fibers or microtubules would began growth from the centrioles.

Anaphase: by the start of this phase spindle fibers would have attached themselves to the chromosomes kinetochores. In this phase the chromatids would separate and that’s really it as you can tell this is the shortest phase in mitosis.

Telophase: finally the chromosomes would be brought to the polar opposite ends of the cell and the nuclear membrane would reform. Also the chromosomes condensed chromosomes would unravel eventually they would be invisible.

Finally the cell would enter cytokinesis were it would split at the cleavage furrow which would have started in anaphase of telophase, all a cleavage furrow is, is microfilaments “pinching the cell” which is just them pulling on either side of the center of the cell.
