Answer:

True

Explanation:

Cell cycle checkpoints are an important layer of control of the cell cycle. The cell cycle is a process by which cells divide.

There are 4 stages of the cell cycle G1, G2, S and M.

When the cell goes through the cell cycle, each stage has different processes that must occur for the cell to properly divide. During G1, the cell must grow to sufficient size and the environment must be favorable for cell division. During S phase, all the DNA must be properly replicated. during G2 the cell must prepare for division. During M, the cell actually divides.

There are 3 checkpoints throughout the cell cycle. The G1 checkpoint ensures the cell has reached sufficient size. The G2 checkpoint ensures the DNA has been properly replicated. The M checkpoint makes sure the chromosomes are properly attached to the spindles to split the DNA between 2 new cells.

Without these checkpoints, the cell can divide uncontrollably which can lead to cancer.

An animals long period of inactivity during winter is called what
Murrr4er [49]
Hello, sorry this is a little late.

I believe the correct answer to your question, "an animals long period of inactivity during winter is called what" would be Hibernation.

Hibernation is when some animals (examples would be bears, and wild rabbits) sleep throughout the entire season of winter, when the temperature is too cold for them. They spend time before hibernation usually stocking up food, and creating a warm place for them to stay.

Hope this helps, and have a great day! :)

I assume the question asks for the number of phenotypes present.

The phenotype is the set of visible characteristics of an individual resulting from the interaction of its genotype. In this case, the number of phenotype is the total number of combinations of the characteristic purple or white and wrinkled or smooth:

white and smooth
purple and wrinkled
white and wrinkled</span>

<span>So basically there are 4 phenotypes.       (ANSWER)</span>
