Explain, through the use of an illustration, the role of the anaphase promoting complex (APC / P) in separating the sister chromatids during anaphase.
illustrate and briefly describe the alignment, pairing, and disjunction ofsister chromatids during mitosis. Include the molecular complexes cohesin and shugoshin and the enzyme separase.
Overall, meiosis and mitosis are analogous processes involving many of the same proteins. However, some proteins function uniquely in each of these cell-division events. Explain the meiosis-specific function of the following: (a) Ime2, (b) Rec8, (c) monopolin.

- What are three events occurring in prophase that are undone in telophase?arrow_forwardDescribe the series of events by which APC/C promotes the separation of sister chromatids at anaphase.arrow_forwardconsider a diploid cell that contains three pairs of chromosomes designated AA, BB, and CC. Each pair contains a maternal and a paternal member (e.g., Am and Ap, etc.). Using these designations, demonstrate your understanding of mitosis and meiosis by drawing chromatid combinations as requested. Be sure to indicate when chromatids are paired as a result of replication and/or synapsis. You may wish to use a large piece of brown manila wrapping paper or a large cut-up paper bag and work with another student as you deal with these problems. Such cooperative learning may be a useful approach as you solve problems throughout the text. Draw all possible combinations of chromatids during anaphase II in meiosis.arrow_forward

When can non-disjunction occur? Telophase lor Telophase II Cytokinesis )Anaphase I only Anaphase lonly )Anaphase I orAnaphasellarrow_forward1). A diploid somatic cell from a dog (Canis lupus familiaris) has a total of 78 chromosomes (2n = 78). As in humans, sex chromosomes determine sex: XX in females and XY in males. a) What is the total number of DNA molecules in G2 of the cell cycle? b) What is the total number of sister chromatids during prometaphase? c) What is the total number of telomeres in a somatic dog cell in G1? d) What is the total number of autosomes?arrow_forward
- For below problem, consider a diploid cell that contains three pairs of chromosomes designated AA, BB, and CC. Each pair contains a maternal and a paternal member (e.g., Am and Ap). Using these designations, demonstrate your understanding of mitosis and meiosis by drawing chromatid combinations as requested. Be sure to indicate when chromatids are paired as a result of replication and/or synapsis. You may wish to use a large piece of brown manila wrapping paper or a cut-up paper grocery bag for this project and to work in partnership with another student. We recommend cooperative learning as an efficacious way to develop the skills you will need for solving the problems presented throughout this text. Question: Assume that each gamete resulting from Problem 29 fuses, in fertilization, with a normal haploid gamete. What combinations will result? What percentage of zygotes will be diploid, containing one paternal and one maternal member of each chromosome pair?arrow_forwardExplain 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.
