in your own words explain how studies of cell growth regulation may benefit cancer research. be as specific as possible (aim for approximately a half-page of text)
Herbicides like 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T stimulate cell division. How might this fact explain why these chemicals are effective as herbicides?
how many chromosomes would be expected in each new daughter cell if the mother cell has 10 chromosomes?
what do you think would happen if both sister chromatids of one cell move to the same pole during mitosis?
Females are born with all the eggs they will ever carry (i.e. no more eggs are produced). I know sperm is continuously produced, but are they produced from a fixed supply?
My real question is that sperm is produced from spermatogonia (steps skipped), which are produced from primordial germ cells. Do you produce any more primordial germ cells after birth?
Number of cells in pahiten:
a. 2nII
b. 2nI
c. nI
d. nII
e. 2n
Phytochromes are light receptors in plants that absorb mainly red light and regulates plant response to light such as flowering. Describe the physiological mechanism in long-day and short-day plants that could induce flowering. In your opinion, how root cells able to respond to light?
According to Swedish geneticists, some forms of schizophrenia are inherited as autosomal dominant characters. In homozygous potency, the gene is 100%, and in heterozygotes it is 20%. Determine the probability of giving birth to sick children in a family where both parents are heterozygous. What does penetrance show?
1) Illustrate a full schematic diagram of photosynthesis which must include the light-dependent and light-independent reactions. On that same illustration, point out (where) and briefly explain (when/how) on each of the process listed below could occur:
(i) Reshuffling of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
(ii) Pumping of H+ across membrane
(iii) Reduction of NADP+
(iv) Replenishment of electron on the photosystem
(v) Formation of 2-phosphoglycolate
In your assigned readings, you learned how cells utilize energy. Discuss the importance of electrons in the transfer of energy in living systems. Be sure to use a specific example in your discussion.
Be sure to use in text citation and provide references for your sources. While not required for this discussion, you may use outside resources. Any materials cited in this course should be referenced using the APA style guidelines
