- HeLa Cells Are a Genetic Mess HeLa cells can vary in chromosome number. Defects in proteins that orchestrate cell division result in descendant cells with too many or too few chromosomes, an outcome that is one of the ha1lmarks of cancer cells. The panel of chromosomes in FIGURE 11.9, originally published in 1989, shows all of the chromosomes in a single metaphase HeLa cell. FIGURE 11.9 Karyotype of HeLa showing chromosomes in one cell. How many extra chromosomes does this cell have, compared to a normal human body cell?arrow_forwardYou view a mature, living plant cell such as an epidermal cell under the light microscope. You view the cell at sufficiently-high magnification and you have also stained the cell for chromatin. The cell has a nucleus, yet you cannot see chromosomes, at least in their typical ’sausage-formed’ shape as we all know them from textbooks. Why is that?arrow_forwardWhat occurs during metaphase phase of mitosis? A. Microtubules can be lengthened by adding subunits at the + end to move chromosomes towards the metaphase plate B. Microtubules can be shortened to move chromosomes towards the metaphase plate. C. Motor proteins pull chromosomes along the microtubules to move them towards the metaphase plate. D. All of the above E. None of the abovearrow_forward
- In the image, you can see one cell that is in the process of mitosis. (Note that chromosomes are stained dark blue.) In which stage is this cell currently? A. Telophase B. Metaphase C. Interphase D. Prophase E. Cytokinesis F. Anaphasearrow_forwardWhich one of the following represents interphase? A. G1 + G2 + S B. S + M + C C. prophase + metaphase + anaphase + telophase D. cytokinesis + mitosis E. G1 + G2arrow_forwardMicrotubules in a cell exhibit dyanimc instability at which end? positive end negative end both positive and negative ends neither the positive nor the negative ends 2. The effect of MAP2 on microtubules is similar to the effect of CapZ on microfilaments how? both stabilize the positive end of the filament both bundle the filaments in parallel bundles both increase the instability of the negative end of the filament both nucleate the formation of the filaments 3. Select all of the statements below that are true of tubulin and microtubules negative ends of microtubules end with alpha-tubulin sticking out monomers in which GTP is bound to beta-tubulin encourage the growth of the filament hydrolysis of GTP by the beta subunit stabilizes the filament all of the tubulin subunits in a microtubule are bound to GDParrow_forward

Phase Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Specimen 1 135 22 9 2 1arrow_forwardThere are certain cells that are multinucleated (having more than one nucleus). Which of the following is a possible explanation for this occurrence? A) The cell underwent repeated cytokinesis but no mitosis. B) The cell underwent repeated mitosis with simultaneous cytokinesis. C) The cell underwent repeated mitosis, but cytokinesis did not occur. D) The cell had multiple S phases before it entered mitosis.arrow_forwardTelophase in Mitosis a ) Chromosomes begin to uncoil into chromatin. b) Nucleolus and nuclear membrane begin to reappear. c) Spindle slowly dissolves. d) In animal cells, cytokinesis occurs with a cleavage furrow dividing one cell into two cells. e) In plant cells, cytokinesis occurs with the formation of a cell plate. This plate divides the original cell into two cells and is part of the new cell wall.arrow_forward
- Count 100 cells and tally them. Remember the phases you learned in Bio 31 and Anatomy? Draw a pie chart graph showing the phases of Allium root tip. Label each of the phases with the % for each phase: prophase metaphase anaphase telophase interphase provide direction of the phase progression--direction in which to read the graph so the phases of mitosis are in proper order.arrow_forwardOnion meristem cells complete a cell cycle in 800 minutes.
