Once a cell enters mitosis, the molecules that activate division must be turned off. what happens to mpf during mitosis? it is c

ompletely degraded. it is phosphorylated by a cdk, which inactivates it. the cyclin component of mpf is degraded. the cdk component of mpf is degraded.

I think what happens is that the Cyclin component of the MPF is degraded.  MPF or mitosis promoting factor, consists of two important cell cycle regulatory protein called the cyclin and cyclin dependent kinases (CDK). The cdk and the cyclins are the major control switches for the cell cycle, causing the cell to move from G1 to S or G2 to M.

Answer:

Option C, the cyclin component of mpf is degraded.

Explanation:

MPF stands for Maturation promoting factor which is a protein complex that makes a cell realize its crucial time of division and formation of new cells.  

It acts as a check point and regulates the progression of cell division from G2 stage to M stage and also check whether the cell has grown effectively by G2 stage.  

MPF is made up of Cdk (Cyklin dependent kinase) protein and cyclin. The level of Cdk and cyclin reduces as the cell division progress.  

 hence, option C is correct

Explain using the term semi-conservation replication why we still
Basile [38]

Answer:

Semi-conservation replication describes the mechanism of DNA replication in all known cells. This process is known as semi-conservation because two copies of the original DNA molecule are produced. Each copy contains one original strand and one newly-synthesized strand.

DNA is passed down to the next generation in big chunks called: Chromosomes.

Every generation, each parent passes half their chromosomes to their child. If nothing happened to the chromosomes between generations, then there would be around a 1 in 8 change that you would get no DNA from a great, great, great, great grandparent.

What most people forget, through, is that our chromosomes get mixed and matched before they are passed on. It is because of this "recombination" that your great, great, great grandparent's DNA is almost cetainly still lurking in yours.
