Document Summary

Prelecture: phases and main characteristics of the cell cycle. Interphase:- g1 phase: cell carries out its function and growth. G0 phase: cells that are not destined to divide immediately enter a shunt from g1; re-enter g1 in order to start dividing again. S phase: dna replication and chromosomes duplicate. G2 phase: cell growth continues and prepares for mitosis; cohesins appear encircle each pair of sister. Cytokinesis: cytoplasm divides by furrowing (animal cells) or by forming a cell plate (plant cells: stages and main characteristics of mitosis, prophase. Chromosomes condense, this condensation packs the long dna molecules into small units. Nucleolus becomes smaller and disappears = shut down of all types of rna synthesis. In the cytoplasm, mitotic spindle begins to form between the two centrosomes, pushing the centrosomes to opposite ends, thereby forming the spindle poles. The spindle develops as bundles of microtubules: prometaphase. Spindle microtubules grow from centrosome toward the former nuclear area and attach to the chromosomes.

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.
