Answer:
meiosis
Explanation:
Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell. In contrast, meiosis gives rise to four unique daughter cells, each of which has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Answer:
CHK2, p53, p21, cell cycle progression.
Explanation:
In a normal cell with no LFS mutation, during the G1 stage of cell cycle progression, the CHK2 activates if there is damage in the DNA. CHK2 activates p53, which is a tumor suppressor protein that will hold the cell cycle in G1/S until the DNA is repaired. The p53 protein activates p21, a protein that binds to CDK2 and stops the cell cycle. The cell cycle will continue once the damage is repaired.
Do you mean ion pumps in the membrane of cell?
If so, then ion pumps maintain an electrochemical gradient across the membrane.
