Answer:

False

Explanation:

The papillary muscles of both right and left ventricles began to contract shortly before the other ventricular muscles (systole) so that they can take up the slack on the chordae tendineae as the full force of ventricular contractions sends blood against the atrioventricular (AV) valve flaps.

They prevent the backward flow of blood to atria from ventricles. So if they contract after the ventricle systole they would not be able to perform their job.

Which of the following is true of active transport?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

D. Molecules called pumps function to control active transport.

Explanation:

Active transport is one of the two types of transport (the other being passive transport). It is the type of transport in which substances move against their concentration gradient i.e. from a lower concentration to a higher concentration. Hence, due to this, energy input in form of ATP is required by the cell.

However, the process of active transport makes use of certain molecules called PUMPS to control it. The pumps moves ions/molecules against their concentration gradient. An example is the sodium-pottasium pump which moves sodium ions from a region of low conc. to a region of high conc.

The role that p53 protein plays in suppressing inappropriate progression through the cell cycle depends on all of the following
irinina [24]

Answer:

a. p53 activates transcription of WAF1.

Explanation:

<u>WAF1 transcription occurs independent of p53 during oxidative stress so p53 does not play any role in cell cycle arrest in the signaling pathway which involves WAF1 . </u>

In rest of the mentioned options, p53 plays a role directly or indirectly. During double stranded lesion in DNA in G1 phase, a sensor protein known as ATM binds the DNA lesion site. ATM is a serine/threonine kinase which phosphorylates another kinase known as chk2. After phosphorylation,<u> chk2 stabilizes transcription factor p53.</u> p53 further acts as a transcription factor for the synthesis of a protein known as p21 which inhibits G1 phase specific CDK and ultimately cell is arrested in G1 phase. The cell remains in arrested state until the DNA lesion is fully repaired. <u>Hence, p53 indirectly blocks G1 to S transition with the help of p21. </u>

As such <u>WAF1 transcription factor involving pathway</u><u> </u><u>also requires p21 protein for causing cell cycle arrest but in this pathway p21 is not synthesized with the help of p53. </u>
