Document Summary

The cell cycle is the essential mechanism by which all living things reproduce and pass on genetic information to the next generation of cells. It is a process that ensures dna in each chromosome is faithfully replicated to produce 2 copies and that replicated chromosomes be accurately distributed (segregated) to 2 genetically identical daughter cells. The cell cycle is also involved in coordinating growth (increasing cell mass) in preparation for division. At the end of the s phase, cells enter g2 containing twice the number of chromosomes as g1 cells. The end of g2 is marked by the onset of mitosis, during which numerous events leading to cell division occur. The g1, s, and g2 phases are collectively referred to as interphase, the period between one mitosis and the next. Most non-proliferating cells in vertebrates leave the cell cycle in g1, where most cells arrest in the g0 state. G1 phase is by far the longest for most cells, while.

Part A:

In prokaryotes and eukaryotes cell reproduction is similar in that it requires some kind of signal to proceed, DNA replication, careful separation of the DNA into two equal portions, and division of the cytoplasm. How is cell reproduction different in prokaryotes and eukaryotes?

Select one:

a. In a eukaryotic organism, the signals for cell division are usually not related to the environment but to the function of the entire organism.

b. Eukaryotic cells constantly divide whenever environmental conditions are adequate and the cells are large enough.

c. The linear chromosomes in prokaryotes are constantly being updated.

d. Prokaryotic cell division requires cytokinesis before mitosis because of their small size.

e. The sexual phase of most prokaryotes (bacteria) is essential to the rapid cell division required for infection.

Part B:

What does the name Cyclin Dependent Kinase stand for?

Select one:

a. A protein important to the cell cycle that is dependent on DNA synthesis.

b. An enzyme that cuts DNA so that chromosomes can segregate.

c. An enzyme that phosphorylates other proteins using ATP only when the protein Cyclin is bound to the enzyme.

d. An enzyme that rolls along microtubules dragging a vesicle.

e. An enzyme that connects chromosomes to the spindle fiber.

Part C:

The Cell Cycle is divided into Mitosis, Cytokinesis, and Interphase. Mitosis can be ordered into the following phases:

e. G1/G2/S

1.A mutation occurs in a cell to cause its SH2 domains to be constantly activated. What is the result of this mutation? a. The cell will become senescent and cease to go through the cell cycle b. The cell will no longer be able to complete mitosis because of compromised spindle fibers c. The cell will experience continuous division. d. The cell will create increased G-Protein receptor density at the cell membrane surface, leading to sensitization to ligands released in the intercellular space. e. Nothing will change.

2. Which of the following catalyzes the transformation of ATP to cAMP? a. Adenylyl cyclase b. Phosphorylase c. Protein Kinase d. Phosphoinositol Phospholipase e. Diacyl glycerol

3.During which phases of the cell cycle does the cell have double the amount of DNA? a. G1 and G2 phase b. S and G1 phase c. G2 and Early M phase d. G2 and Late M phase e. G1 and Late M phase

4. Which of the following is a likely reason for apoptosis to occur in a cell? a. The cell is part of a structure that is being modified during development. b. The cell merges with another cell (ex: a sperm and egg cell. c. An error occurred when the cell's DNA was being replicated. d. The organism is growing quickly. e. a and c
