Cleavage In animal cells, the cleavage furrow forms when a ring of microfilaments contracts, causing the parent cell to be pinched in two.

Anaphase

Cohesion breaks down. Kinetochores move toward pols of cell.

Cyclin

Eukaryotic chromatin is composed of which of the following macromolecules?

DNA and proteins

Telophase

Daughter nuclei are forming. Cytokinesis has started: The cell plate, which will divide the cytoplasm in two, is growing toward the perimeter of the parent cell.

Prometaphase

Discree chromosomes are now visible each consists of two aligned, identical sister chromatids. Later the nuclear envelope will fragment.

Which statement provides the best description of the interphase portion of the cell cycle?

During interphase, a cell is metabolically active. Interphase accounts for about 90% of the cell cycle and includes many key events critical to the cell cycle. It is not a resting stage; the cell is metabolically active during this phase.

Which of these phases encompasses all of the stages of mitosis but no other events?

E

If a eukaryotic cell is in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, which statement about the cell's chromosomes must be correct?

Each chromosome is made of a complex DNA and associated proteins. Eukaryotic nucleus contains chromatin, a complex of DNA and associated protein molecules. The proteins maintain the structure of the chromosomes and help control gene activity.

Which of the following events characterizes the beginning of anaphase?

Enzymatic cleavage of cohesion

Cells will usually divide if they receive the proper signal at a checkpoint in which phase of the cell cycle?

G1 In mammalian cells, this checkpoint is terminal the restriction point.

Which of the following correctly matches a phase of the cell cycle with its description?

G1, follows cell division. After mitosis and cytokinesis, the newly formed daughter cells enter the G1 phase.

I and V

Amount go DNA per nucleus over the cell division cycle. Which region of the accompanying figure represents S phase?

II

Amount of DNA per nucleus over the cell division cycle. Which numbered regions of the accompanying figure represents the DNA consent associated with cells at metaphase?

III

Students in a biology lab isolated cells in various pass of the cell cycle. A population of cells that have 1 1/2 times the DNA of G1 phase cells was most likely isolated from which of the following parts of the cell cycle?

In the S phase

Why is it difficult to observe individual chromosomes with a light microscope during interphase?

Interphase chromosomes are long, thin strands unlike the condensed chromosomes visible in mitosis. Except during the M phase, the DNA is extended, allowing its genes to be transcribed for protein synthesis.

Metaphase

Kinetochores are motionless in relation to poles of cell.

Prometaphase

Microtubules attach to kinetochores.

Which of the following statements best describes cells in culture that do not exhibit either density-dependent inhibition or anchorage dependence?

The cells show characteristics of tumors.

Anaphase

The chromatids of each chromosome have separated, and the daughter chromosomes are moving to the ends of the cell as their kinetochore microtubules shorten.

Prophase

The chromosomes are condensing and the nucleolus is beginning to disappear. The mitotic spindle is starting to form.

Metaphase

The spindle is complete, and the chromosomes, attached to microtubules at their kinetochores, are all at the plate.

Which of the following statements describing kinetochores is correct?

They are sites at which microtubules attach to chromosomes. As the spindle depolymerizes, the kinetochores appear to move along the spindle fiber, dragging the attached chromosomes with them.

Which of the following molecules is maintained at a relatively constant level throughout the cell cycle but requires a cycling to become catalytically active?

cdk

interphase

During mitosis, microtubules attach to chromosomes at the ________.

kinetochores

During prophase, the microtubules of the mitotic spindle __________.

lengthen

During anaphase, the nonkinetochore microtubules ________ and move past each other, and the kinetochore microtubules ________.

lengthen; shorten

The ___________ is a cell structure consisting of microtubules, which forms during early mitosis and plays a role in cell division.

mitotic spindle

Will the chromosomes move to the poles of the cell?

no The inhibitor does not affect the cleavage of cohesins (the proteins that hold the sister chromatids together), the attachment of the chromosomes to the kinetochore microtubules, or the elongation of the cell due to the nonkinetochore microtubules. The inhibitor only affects the motor protein that pulls the chromosome along the kinetochore microtubule in anaphase. Thus, in the treated cell, the sister chromatids can still separate at the beginning of anaphase due to the fact that the cell is elongating (the centrosomes at the poles of the cell are moving farther apart) and the kinetochore microtubules still connect the chromosomes to the centrosomes. However, because the chromosomes cannot move along the kinetochore microtubules, they will never reach the poles of the cell.

DNA replication produces two identical DNA molecules, called ___________, which separate during mitosis.

sister chromatids

During _______ both the contents of the nucleus and the cytoplasm are divided.

the mitotic phase

Will the sister chromatids separate from each other?

yes The inhibitor does not affect the cleavage of cohesins (the proteins that hold the sister chromatids together), the attachment of the chromosomes to the kinetochore microtubules, or the elongation of the cell due to the nonkinetochore microtubules. The inhibitor only affects the motor protein that pulls the chromosome along the kinetochore microtubule in anaphase. Thus, in the treated cell, the sister chromatids can still separate at the beginning of anaphase due to the fact that the cell is elongating (the centrosomes at the poles of the cell are moving farther apart) and the kinetochore microtubules still connect the chromosomes to the centrosomes. However, because the chromosomes cannot move along the kinetochore microtubules, they will never reach the poles of the cell.

Will this cell elongated during mitosis?

yes The inhibitor does not affect the cleavage of cohesins (the proteins that hold the sister chromatids together), the attachment of the chromosomes to the kinetochore microtubules, or the elongation of the cell due to the nonkinetochore microtubules. The inhibitor only affects the motor protein that pulls the chromosome along the kinetochore microtubule in anaphase. Thus, in the treated cell, the sister chromatids can still separate at the beginning of anaphase due to the fact that the cell is elongating (the centrosomes at the poles of the cell are moving farther apart) and the kinetochore microtubules still connect the chromosomes to the centrosomes.
