Bas_tet [7]3 years ago

The answer is B: G2 checkpoint.

Cell cycle checkpoints are control mechanisms necessary for proper cell division. In the cell cycle, there are two checkpoints: the G1 checkpoint and the G2 checkpoint. The G1 checkpoint is right before the S phase, and G2 checkpoint is right before the M phase.
The G2 checkpoint is a DNA damage checkpoint and if DNA is damaged, entering the cell cycle is delayed before mitosis (M phase).

What molecules are the main electron carriers of the Krebs Cycle?
icang [17]

The right answer is B) NADH and FADH2.

NADH, FADH2 are molecules involved in the Krebs cycle, they carry electrons and H + protons.

NAD is involved in metabolism as an electron carrier in oxidation-reduction reactions, NAD + as an oxidant and NADH as a reducing agent.

Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is an oxidation-reduction cofactor derived from riboflavin (vitamin B2). It is associated with the enzymes of the class of oxido-reductases to which it is linked by a covalent bond: it is a prosthetic group.

The redox couple is: FAD ==> FADH.

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Gel-like fluid present within the cell membrane (excluding nucleus) is termed as cytoplasm of the cell.

It serves various functions in the cell such as:

  • It supports and hold all the cell organelles and cell parts.
  • It serves as the site of most of the cellular activities or processes.
  • It provides shape to the cell.
  • It contains the cytoskeleton (actin filaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules) of the cell which helps in maintaining the cell shape, the movement of materials within the cell, cell division and movement of the cell.

Hence, all options are correct except  "determines which substances can enter or leave the cell".

Plasma membrane of the cell determines which substances can enter or leave the cell.

Which description distinguishes the process of meiosis from mitosis?
Nitella [24]

Answer: Unlike mitotic cells, meiotic cells undergo two divisions to produce haploid cells, allowing for genetic diversity in sexually reproducing organisms.

Explanation:

Both meiosis and mitosis are types of cell division. However, unlike mitosis that occur at one division only and yield two daughter cells with diploid number; meiosis involves two division steps:

- Meiosis I

where the parent cell is halved in chromosome number, and genetic materials are mixed between chromatids

-Meiosis II

where the two daughter cells generated in meiosis I is further divided into four haploid cells.
