Answer:

Colchicine

Explanation:

Colchicine is an alkaloid derived from the autumn crocus (Colchicum autumnale).

The effect of colchicine, which inhibits microtubule polymerization and thus assembly of the mitotic spindle, demonstrates the presence of another checkpoint in the cell cycle. When colchicine is added to cultured cells, the cells enter mitosis and arrest with condensed chromosomes. With increasing time, a large fraction of the cells in a culture become arrested, thus permitting determination of the size, shape, and number of mitotic chromosomes — that is, the karyotype  — in multiple cells. A checkpoint control somehow senses when the mitotic spindle has not assembled properly and prevents activation of the APC polyubiquitination system that normally leads to degradation of the anaphase inhibitor, required for onset of anaphase, and later to the degradation of mitotic cyclins, required for the exit from mitosis. As a result, MPF activity remains high, chromosomes remain condensed, and the nuclear envelope does not re-form.

What class of enzymes are involved in triggering events in the cell cycle?
ASHA 777 [7]
Kinases. Kinases add phosphate to molecules, and the modification can serve as a "switch" to turn events in the cell on or off. CDKs or cyclin dependent kinases regulate the cell cycle.

timofeeve [1]
A challenge to traditional (pre-1860) ideas about species came from embryology, when it was discovered that embryos of dissimilar organisms, such as sharks and humans, resemble each other. Embryology involves the study of the formation and the development of an embryo and the fetus. It is one type of evidence of evolution such that the embryos of many different kinds of animals, mammals, reptiles, birds, fish among others, are similar showing a common ancestry.
