Summary Introduction
To identify:
The cellular mechanism behind certain daughter cells not producing more cells in the C. elegans fate map.
Introduction:
Apoptosis is generally called as programmed cell death. It is a very necessary part of development. It kills the cells which are of no use (old or damaged) to the body or are harmful (cancerous) in the body. It also keeps the number of cells in check.

Explain why we can say that M-phase of the cell-cycle is triggered by a positive feedback loop.
a) What would the consequences be if cohesins were working normally but condensins were not? and b) what stage of the cell cycle would this cause problems in?
Why is it important for the centrosome to duplicate during G1-G2 (interphase) before M phase?
The kinetochores serve as a link between the sister chromatids and the microtubules attached to the mitotic spindle. a) How are microtubules still able to exhibit dynamic instability after they are bound to the sister chromatids and b) why is this important to mitosis?
As the name suggests, the Anaphase-promoting-complex (APC), promotes the 4th phase of mitosis by separating the sister chromatids so they can travel to separate poles of the cell, and prevents them from being re-zipped together. Describe how APC does these two things (Hint: one involves M-cyclin and the other involves…
Anaphase B involves the separation of spindle poles. What forces have been proposed to drive this separation? What underlying molecular mechanisms are thought to provide these forces?
Figure 3.7 shows a syncytial Drosophila embryo, a single large cell that can contain hundreds or even thousands of nuclei. Each
round of nuclear division can occur rapidly, sometimes as quickly as 10 minutes. These rapid divisions do not require all the stages seen
in a normal cell cycle. Which stages (G1, S, G, mitosis, cytokinesis) are dispensable and which are not? Explain.

In your answer, identify the component that breaks embryonic symmetry to starts the process of distinguishing anterior from posterior?arrow_forwardIn Xenopus, one of the substrates of mitotic CDKs is the phosphatase Cdc25. When phosphorylated by mitotic CDKs, Cdc25 is activated. What is the substrate of Cdc25?

- A small amount if cytoplasm isolated from a mitotic cell is injected into an unfertilized frog oocyte, causing the oocyte to enter M phase. A sample of the injected cytoplasm is then taken and injected into a second oocyte, causing this cell also to enter the M phase. this process is repeated many times until essentially, none of the original protein samples remains, and yet, cytoplasm taken from the last in the series on injected oocytes is still able to trigger entry into the M phase with undiminished efficiency. Explain this remarkable observation.arrow_forwardLet's say that an experiment had no disruption to kinetochores and you are able to inactivate the CDC 14 phosphatase, which acts to remove phosphate groups from substrates that were previously phosphorylated by active MPF. What effect, if any, would this have on (i) the duration (length) of the mitotic phase, (ii) the timing of cyclin B’s appearance or disappearance, and (iii) the period of time for which MPF is active? Briefly explain your reasoningarrow_forwardRainbow trout go through a unique genetic reproductive process. Female eggs are diploid, while male sperm are haploid. In the wild, when the sperm fertilizes an egg, the extra set of chromosomes is eliminated, resulting in a diploid offspring.The process that produces the sperm and egg, and the process the offspring use to grow into adults are, respectively, Select one: a. Process to produce sperm and egg Process used for growth of the offspring Mitosis Cytokinesis b. Process to produce sperm and egg Process used for growth of the offspring Mitosis Meiosis c.

Between which two stages of the Neurospora life cycle do most mitotic cell divisions occur? b.

What gene is mutated? Explain your reasoning. c. Suppose I take the strain above that only grows with arginine supplements and cross it to a different mutant Neurospora strain that grows with arginine and citrulline supplements but not ornithine supplements.
