Some cancer cells are insensitive to typical chemotherapy. Research into the mechanisms underlying this insensitivity uncovered an ability by these cells to pump the treatment drug out of the cell against its concentration gradient. Additional drugs have been developed that inhibit the pump, thus trapping the chemotherapeutic agent inside to promote cancer cell destruction. The Figure shows what happens when two types of cells are treated with a 3H-labeled anti-cancer drug, paclitaxel. Which set of cells (A or B) would be described as resistant to the cancer treatment? Explain your answer. What type of transport are the resistant cells using?
After a cell "clears" the G₁ restriction checkpoint, it can proceed into S phase. This S phase entry is achieved by a cyclin dependent kinase (Cdk2) and its cyclin (Cyclin E), but additionally requires the action of a protein kinase (CDC2) as well as a phosphatase (CDC25) enzyme. Explain how these 4 proteins work together to orchestrate S phase entry.

Scientists used a Rat6-Raf transformed cell line for the anchorage-independent growth control experiment. This cell line is transformed with an activated form of Raf. The CP788 drug had no effect on anchorage-dependent growth iwith this cell-line. Explain why this cell line was used as a control in this experiment and why no inhibition of cell growth was observed with CP788
Or. Foyez Samar The volume enclosed by the plasma membrane of plant cells is often much larger the c corresponding volume in animal cells. The most regsengble explanation for this observation Is that A) plant cells are capable of having a much higher surface-to-volume ratio than animal cells. B) plant cells have a much more highly convoluted (folded) plasma membrane than animal cens. C) plant cells contain a large vacuole that reduces the volume of the cytoplasm. D) animal cells are more spherical, whereas plant cells are elongated. 12 A u

Artificially induced apoptosis (controlled cellular death) is found to be an effective treat- ment for some forms of cancer. Which of the following describes the most likely mechanism by which apoptosis might be induced? A B с D by causing ribosomes to increase the rate of protein synthesis by triggering the division of mitochondria in the cell to increase ATP production by increasing the expression of membrane-bound glucose protein channels by causing lysosomes to release digestive enzymes into the cytosol
Non-canonical Hedgehog signaling results in actin cytoskeleton rearrangements, leading to cellmovement and changes in cell shape. Describe how changes to the actin cytoskeleton lead to cellmovement and changes in cell shape.You do not need to draw out the signaling pathway again (#1b). Your answer should focus onthe changes to the actin cytoskeleton. Drawings will be helpful!
The output of RTK pathways is often the activation of MAP Kinase. Explain how MAPK can lead to activation of a specific subset of proteins, leading to distinct effects in different cell types in response to the same growth signal.
Cell lines divide normally in a defined medium containing growth factors, but fail to divide in the absence AGF (a growth factor). However, a mutant cell line continues to divide even in the absence of AGF. Elevated levels of Rb phosphorylation and the effects of receptor and Mek inhibitors suggest a mutation activating an oncogene. Inhibitors of Mek inhibit cell division of the mutant cell line, but inhibitors to the ADGF receptor, a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) with homology to EGFR, do not. Outline the RTK pathway leading to the phosphorylation of Rb to form p-Rb.
