Answer:
C. Molecules such as cyclins are in high concentration in the cytoplasm of a dividing cell and will signal the fused cells nucleus to undergo mitosis
Explanation:
Various stages of the cell cycle are under tight regulation. Specific proteins such as cyclins and cyclin-dependent protein kinases determine if the cell would progress from one stage of the cell cycle to the next. When a cell is in the metaphase, the cyclins specific for mitosis are present in a higher amount in the cell. These cyclins bind to the specific CDKs and activate them.
The activated CDKs then phosphorylate proteins that make the cell to move through various stages of mitosis. Therefore, fusing a G1 cell with a cell in metaphase of mitosis would trigger mitosis in the G1 cell due to the presence of mitosis specific cyclins in the second cell.
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>The intertidal zone is a region of extreme conditions and the organisms should have special mechanisms to cope up with the extreme conditions.
</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Low tides expose an intertidal zone to air while high tides cover the intertidal zone with ocean water. When exposed to air the intertidal region is <em>directly exposed to the sun and there will be high temperature. </em>
Thus the animals have to cope up with the extreme heat and also have to face colder environment when under the sea. <em>Since there is change in salinity the organisms have to handle this as well.</em>
Some animals with shells close their shell tightly to seal moisture. Animals like <em>snails and crabs have thick outer covering to prevent water loss by evaporation. </em>
Organisms like leaf barnacles cluster together to avoid individual exposure. <em>Animals like sea stars cling to the rocks to avoid being washed away by the waves.
