<h2>Cell Cycle
</h2>
Explanation:
Eukaryotes grow and divide by cell cycle.
The main parts of a cell cycle are an ordered series of events – Gap 1 or G1 phase, Synthesis or S phase, Gap 2 or G2 phase, and the mitosis or M phases.
Interphase period (G1, S, G2 phases) - cell grows by size, duplicates its content, replicates its DNA, and finally prepares for mitotic cell division
.
Mitosis and cytokinesis - formation of two identical daughter cells
Cell cycle is regulated by regulatory or restrictive checkpoints in the cell cycle which are activated with detection of a defective DNA.
Proliferation of undesired or cells with defective DNA like in case of tumor cells is controlled by the action of suppressing agents like p53 and cyclins.
The tumor suppressor gene protein p53 prohibits division of tumor cells. Cyclins regulate cell cycle by activation of the enzyme cyclin-dependent kinase.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The G2/M check point makes sure that <u>all of the chromosomes have been replicated.</u>
- <em>Is all DNA replicated?</em>
- <em>Is all DNA damage repaired?</em>
Explanation:
During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down and energy is released in the process.
- Cellular respiration is a metabolic process by which energy is produced.
- In this process, chemical energy stored in the chains of the glucose atoms are transformed into heat energy.
- In cellular respiration, glucose combines with oxygen.
- The product is the formation of carbon dioxide and water with the release of energy.
- This energy is stored in form of ATP.
- To be released, one Phosphate is detached to produce ADP.

Answer:
d. Fluoride becomes incorporated into the crystalline structure of teeth, making them less susceptible to decay
Explanation:
Dental caries results when cariogenic (caries-causing) bacteria metabolize carbohydrates or sugars present in the mouth for their energy needs, producing organic acids as byproducts, thus lowering the pH of the plaque biofilm.
The hydroxyapatite of tooth enamel is composed mainly of phosphate ions (PO₄³⁻) and calcium ions (Ca⁺). Under normal conditions, there is a stable equilibrium between the calcium and phosphate ions in saliva and the crystalline hydroxyapatite. At low pH (acidic conditions), there is a shift in equilibrium resulting in the dissolution of hydroxyapatite from tooth enamel, a process known as demineralization. A reverse process called remineralization (the process of incorporation of minerals in tooth enamel) occurs when the saliva, acting as a buffer elevates pH. When equilibrium is shifted to favor continued demineralization, dental caries results.
However, when fluoride is present in saliva, fluorapatite, rather than hydroxyapatite, forms during the remineralization process as fluoride ions replace hydroxyl groups in the formation of the apatite crystal lattice.
Fluorapatite is less soluble than hydroxyapatite making it more resistant to demineralization, even under conditions of low pH. Thus, fluoride acts as an effective anticaries agent.
A. because it is basically the powerhouses of the cell and they act like the digestive system.
