Which phase of the cell cycle is described? Organelles and materials needed for DNA synthesis are made.

G1 phase

Mitochondria are often described as the powerhouses of the cell. Genetic disorders can occur when mitochondrial mutations occur. For example, a condition called Kearns-Sayre syndrome is caused by deletions in the mitochondrial DNA. This genetic disorder causes weakness of the muscles and other symptoms because the mitochondria are not able to provide sufficient energy to the cells. The diagram shows possible phenotypes of children with an affected parent, or parent who has the diseases. How is Kearns-Sayre disorder inherited? Select the best explanation.

Genetic disorders caused by mitochondrial mutations are examples of cytoplasmic inheritance. Only mothers transmit mitochondrial genetic disorders to their children. The male gametes have little cytoplasm. They do not contribute mitochondria to the embryos.

The development of insects such as the fruit fly, Drosophila, consists of two phases. The larva emerges from the egg and after a period of growth, changes into an adult. The adult insect is very different from the larva. The precursor cells for the adult structures are present in small clusters (the imaginal discs) inside the larva. During the larval stage the disc cells do not play a role. However, during metamorphosis the disc cells start to divide and develop into specific adult structures. Compare and contrast the Drosophila development to the development of C. elegans.

In both C. elegans and Drosophila, a cell's final specialization can be mapped early in the animal's development.
