Answer:

G1 phase: 2C

S phase: 4C

G2 phase: 4C

Meiosis-I: 2C and Meiosis-II: C

Mitosis: 2C

Explanation:

Let's suppose that a cell with 2C DNA content enters the cell cycle. As the G1 cell with 2C content would enter the S phase, DNA replication would double the amount of DNA. Therefore, the cell by the end of the S phase and in the G2 phase would have 4C DNA.

If the G2 cell with 4C DNA enters meiosis-I, separation of homologous chromosomes to the opposite poles in anaphase-I would reduce the DNA content to 2C. Therefore, the cell by the end of anaphase-I would have 2C content. Meiosis-II would further reduce the DNA content in anaphase-II by separation of sister chromatids to opposite poles. Therefore, each of the four daughter cells formed by the end of meiosis would have C DNA content.

If the G2 cell with 4C DNA enters mitosis, separation of sister chromatids to opposite poles in anaphase would reduce the DNA content. Therefore, each of the two daughter cells formed by the end of mitosis would have 2C DNA content.

_______ research has the potential to significantly impact the development of disease-modifying treatments for Parkinson's disea
nydimaria [60]

<u>Stem cell </u>research has the potential to significantly impact the development of disease-modifying treatments for Parkinson’s disease with considerable progress made in creating dopamine-progressing cells.

Explanation:

Parkinson’s disease, a neurodegenerative disease, leads to reduction of dopamine (a neurochemical messenger which carries messages involving thinking and body movements to brain) in the body because the disease will target and kill dopamine-producing nerve cells (neurons). This leads to loss of movement and thinking abilities which are activated by dopamine.

Stem cells research is done to study about the prospects of stem cells in stem cell therapy for Parkinson’s patients as a viable source of new dopamine nerve cells. Research has been involved in growing stem cells to replace or regenerate dopamine-producing nerve cells by using embryonic stem cells or induced pluripotent stem cells as a treatment modality in Parkinson’s disease.

What is the period of the cell cycle between cell divisions. A. telophase B. interphase C. metaphase D. telekinesis
avanturin [10]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h3>Interphase</h3>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<h3>The cell cycle is the period of time from the beginning of one cell division to the beginning of the next. The longest stage of the cell cycle is called interphase. Interphase is the stage that occurs in between cell divisions. During interphase, the cell grows and develops and performs its functions.</h3>
