Spindle fibres pull homologous chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell. Two new nuclei are formed that have two full sets of genetic information.arrow_forward1.

Kinetochores Microtubules Centrosome (c) Describe how the cell cycle is regulated and discuss ONE consequence of abnormal regulation. Cell cycle C.arrow_forwardOne approach to studying the regulation of cell cycle progression (particularly in an era when genetic and molecular biology manipulations were less readily accomplished in mammalian cells) was to use treatments that induced cells to fuse and then monitor the behavior of the two nuclei in the resulting cell. The figure below depicts data from one such study. The investigators did preliminary work to produce populations of cells that were synchronized in various stages of the cell cycle (G1, S, or G2 in the examples shown below). They then fused the cells in different combinations and monitored subsequent events in each of the nuclei. For purposes of this question, we will pay particular attention to what occurred in the nucleus that came from the cell in G1. In one experiment (I), cells in the G1 and S phases were fused. That event caused the nucleus from the G1 cell to very quickly enter the S phase (sooner than it would otherwise have done so). In contrast, in a second experiment…arrow_forward
