The cell cycle control system is a cycling set of molecules in the cell that triggers and coordinates key events in the cell cycle. This is all controlled by growth factors.
a) Identify the major checkpoints in a cell and its function. b)Explain the role of the growth factor.
For an organism with 3 pairs of chromosomes (6 total chromosomes, 2n = 6), draw chromosome diagrams for the following phases of the mitotic cell cycle: G1 of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase & telophase. Be sure to draw the correct number of chromosomes and the correct number of chromatids per chromosome. Use a different color to represent each chromosome type (for example, use blue to indicate all copies of chromosome 1, red for all copies of chromosome 2, & green for all copies of chromosome 3).
Differentiate (in a general sense) cell activities occuring during Interphase and the Mitotic Phase (you could use just 1 word to describe each phase):
