Taxol is a drug that comes from the bark of a tree that binds and irreversibly stabilizes microtubules. It is often used during chemotherapy to kill dividing cancer cells. How does taxol block cell division?

A-

Taxol prevents the contractile ring from forming and dividing the cell in two.

B-

Taxol prevents DNA replication.

C-

Taxol prevents chromosome condensation during prophase.

D-

Taxol prevents spindle formation and separation of chromatids.

Answer:  D-

Taxol prevents spindle formation and separation of chromatids.

Explanation:  

The Taxol is used as an anticancer drug formulation. It is obtained from yew tree. An anticancer drug affects the cell cycle machinery so as to limit the production of cancer cells.  This drug ceases the microtube formation in animal cells. This prevents the spindle fiber formation and further prevents the mitosis of cancerous cancers as the chromosomes will not separate apart and so abnormal cells will not produce further.

Answer:

                     (i) 1 moles of C

                     (ii) 4.5 moles of C

Explanation:

                   The Chemical equation is as follow,

                                             A + 2 B  →  C

This chemical equation can be translated as;

(i) 1 mole of A reacts with 2 moles of B

(ii) 1 mole of A produces 1 mole of C

(iii) 2 moles of B reacts with 1 mole of A

(iv) 2 moles of B produces 1 mole of C

(v) 1 mole of C is produced by 1 mole of A and 2 moles of B

Therefore to find the number of moles of C produced by 2 mole of B we will do following proportional method.

As,

                        2 moles of B produced  =  1 mole of C

So,

                    2 moles of B will produce  =  X moles of C

Solving for X,

                      X =  2 moles × 1 mole / 2 moles

                      X =  1 moles of C

Note:

         In above problem the given moles were the same as that present in balance equation so incase if the moles are different from that of the equation then the method shown above can be used to solve it.

Lets try it for 9 moles of B:

As,

                        2 moles of B produced  =  1 mole of C

So,

                    9 moles of B will produce  =  X moles of C

Solving for X,

                      X =  9 moles × 1 mole / 2 moles

                      X =  4.5 moles of C
