The correct answer is: B) G1

Normal cells (unlike cancer cells), move through the cell cycle in a regulated way in order to make sure that cells don't divide under conditions that are unfavorable for them. Information about their own internal state (nutrients, signal molecules, DNA integrity) is signal to go or not to go through the cell division. Because of that there are few checkpoints in the cell cycle at which the cell examines the signals and makes a “decision”. The major checkpoints are:

• The G1- the first point at which it must choose, once it passes the G1 checkpoint the cell enters S phase

• The G2-the cell checks DNA integrity and checks if replication is done well.

• The spindle checkpoint-at the transition from metaphase to anaphase.

Nutrient uptake and diffusion of molecules into the bacterial cell become more efficient as the surface area-to-volume ratio ___

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The relationship between the surface area-to-volume ratio and nutrient uptake and diffusion of molecules into the bacterial cell is direct because increase in one (surface area-to-volume ratio) leads to a corresponding increase in efficiency in the other (nutrient uptake and diffusion of molecules into the cell)

The classification levels of three organisms are listed in the cart:

mel-nik [20]

The correct answer is D. House cats, lions, and tigers belong to the same class and family.

Explanation:

Taxonomy classifies animals using different levels such as kingdom, family, order, species, etc. that show the features of the organism and its relationship or similarities with others. In the chart presented, the only level that is different for the three animals is the last one, which is the species level because in this the cat is classified as Domesticus, the lion as Leo, and the tiger as Tigris. This implies the other levels including the class (Mammalia or mammal) or family (Felidae) is the name of the three animals. This makes the last answer correct and shows these three animals are closely related.
