The correct answer is: E) cleavage furrow formation and cytokinesis

Cytochalasin B (cytos-cell and chalasis-relaxation) is a molecule which inhibit network formation by actin filaments by blocking monomer addition. As a result, itshortens actin filaments. This molecule is involved in cytoplasmic division where it blocks the formation of contractile microfilaments. One of the microfilament’s function includes cytokinesis and formation of cleavage furrow so these functions are affected by cytochalasin B.

Which type of system or instrument would be best at gathering data on wind
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Anemometer

Explanation:

It should be understood that the anemometer is different to wind vane in both structure and function.

This is because, anemometer is an instrument that is used to measure the speed of the wind, while the wind vane is used to measure the direction of the wind.

Therefore, in this case, the anemometer is going to be the instrument to measure the speed of the wind above the ocean waters.
