Answer:
C. Molecules such as cyclins are in high concentration in the cytoplasm of a dividing cell and will signal the fused cells nucleus to undergo mitosis
Explanation:
Various stages of the cell cycle are under tight regulation. Specific proteins such as cyclins and cyclin-dependent protein kinases determine if the cell would progress from one stage of the cell cycle to the next. When a cell is in the metaphase, the cyclins specific for mitosis are present in a higher amount in the cell. These cyclins bind to the specific CDKs and activate them.
The activated CDKs then phosphorylate proteins that make the cell to move through various stages of mitosis. Therefore, fusing a G1 cell with a cell in metaphase of mitosis would trigger mitosis in the G1 cell due to the presence of mitosis specific cyclins in the second cell.
Explanation:
During interphase, the cell copies its DNA in preparation for mitosis. Interphase is the 'daily living' or metabolic phase of the cell, in which the cell obtains nutrients and metabolizes them, grows, reads its DNA, and conducts other "normal" cell functions.b This phase was formerly called the resting phase.
It is referred to as a selective semipermeable membrane because it only allows certain things through, due to the size and shape of whatever is trying to get through.
Answer:
The answer is 17190 years
Explanation:
Original amount was 5730. To become 1/8 of the original amount, three (3) half life periods will demand because after first half life the amount will become 1/2 and after second half life, amount become 1/2 again (1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4). Third half life, the amount become half 1/2 again (1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8).
For the 3 half life periods we have original amount x numbers of half life periods = 5730 years x 3 = 17190 years
