Drag the pink labels onto the pink targets to identify the two main phases of the cell cycle. Then drag the blue labels onto the
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

There is no diagram provided so I will just explain the mitotic cell cycle.

Here’s a quick basic arrangement in chronological order interphase, mitosis, and finally cytokinesis.

So first you start with interphase which consist of three phases G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase. Cellular growth occurs in G1 phase of interphase this is followed by S phase which is simply when DNA replication occurs. Final this is followed by G2 phase or further growth in preparation for mitosis and/or meiosis.  

I am only going to explain mitosis but just so I don’t confuse you meiosis can also follow interphase. So mitosis consist of four phases. Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Prophase: in this phase the nuclear membrane would dissipate and the chromosomes would condense.

Metaphase: then in metaphase the chromosomes would align in the center of the cell and spindle fibers or microtubules would began growth from the centrioles.  

Anaphase: by the start of this phase spindle fibers would have attached themselves to the chromosomes kinetochores. In this phase the chromatids would separate and that’s really it as you can tell this is the shortest phase in mitosis.

Telophase: finally the chromosomes would be brought to the polar opposite ends of the cell and the nuclear membrane would reform. Also the chromosomes condensed chromosomes would unravel eventually they would be invisible.

Finally the cell would enter cytokinesis were it would split at the cleavage furrow which would have started in anaphase of telophase, all a cleavage furrow is, is microfilaments “pinching the cell” which is just them pulling on either side of the center of the cell.

Which of the following accurately describes the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration? A. Photosynthesis
Elza [17]
The reactants of photosynthesis are the products of respiration.
photosynthesis: CO₂ + H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂
respiration: C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

In ____________ , signals pass through a cell junction from one cell to adjacent cells. membrane-bound signals bind to receptors
harina [27]
In cell-cell contact , signals pass through a cell junction from one cell to adjacent cells.
Membrane-bound signals bind to receptors on adjacent cells in the process of paracrine signalling.
An example of autocrine signalling is when cells release signals that affect themselves and nearby target cells.
 In synaptic signalling cells release signals that affect nearby target cells. Cells release signals that travel long distances to affect target cells during endocrine signalling.
