Which of the following statements is true regarding pili and flagella assembly? O Pili and flagella are synthesized in a similar fashion; the proteins are produced internally then added to the base of the growing appendage. Pili and flagella are synthesized in a similar, complex manner; approximately 20 different proteins are made inside the cell then secreted to extend the tip of the appendage. Pili grow when protein subunits are added to the base, whereas flagellin proteins are added to the tip of the flagella during growth. Pili grow when protein subunits are added to the tip, whereas flagellin proteins are added to the base of the flagella during growth.

Some drugs can prevent the formation of new lysosomes. However, a cell would continue to make hydrolytic enzymes from the DNA still contained in the cell. Where would you most likely find these enzymes after the drug treatment? O Golgi Complex O Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum O Nucleus O Mitochondrion Strikingly different signaling systems can operate in similar ways. For example, ethylene gas released by ripening fruits diffuses through the air from plant to
Integrins are important in cell crawling because they anchor the leading edge of the cell to the surface it is moving over they are receptors for diffusible chemical ligands that determine the direction the cell will move in they cross-link actin filaments to microtubules and intermediate filaments of the cytoskeleton they serve as nucleating sites for polymerization of new actin filaments
A patient has ingested a chemical known to prevent alpha-tubulin from hydrolyzing GTP to GDP. Which of the following is the BEST conclusion? O The patient's dyneins and kinesins will not be able to hydrolyze nucleotides. O The patient's microtubules will only be able to grow. O The patient's microtubules should still be able to grow and shrink depending on the needs of the cell. O The patient's microtubules will only be able to shrink.
The subunits of which filament bind to GTP, a condition that favors the polymerization of the cytoskeletal subunits? O Intermediate filaments Microfilaments O Microtubules
FtsZ proteins direct the formation of a ___________ that will eventually form the new cell walls of the daughter cells. contractile ring cell plate cytoskeletom septum
Which electron or light microscopy technique would you use for the following? (also explain) For visualizing the fine structure of cellular organelles and cell architecture in the cell interior using very thin cross-sections made in Epon. To obtain sequential images of a macromolecule in order to study its activity in real-time. To obtain an extremely clear three-dimensional image of the nucleus of a single cell. What is the magnification of the image in a microscope using a 20x ocular and a 100x objective?
Since prokaryotes don't have microtubules, how does intracellular movement occur? For an example, how do proteins move to their designaed area within a prokaryote? Also, since they do not have a golgi apparatus, how are proteins processed and distrubuted thorughout the cell? Is the DNA different in prokaryotes that give it different instructions than what you would see in eukaryotes? Please help me understand this a bit more. Thank you. I'm not sure why Bartlby is saying my question looks like a graded assignment question. I guess I sound too professional lol

Which of the following statements regarding microtubules is FALSE? Microtubules are typically arranged in cells such that thoir plus (+) ends are directed towards the plasma membrane and their minus (-) ends are attached to the centrosomes. Microtubules are composed of 13 protofilaments that are arranged into a hollow cylinder. Microtubules are polar. Microtubule-binding proteins, such as Tau, bind to microtubules to destabilizo thom. Microtubules are inherently unstable and rapidly disassemble with low/ GTIP concentrations.

Which of the following best describes a way in which a normal growth factor can stimulate cell division? A A growth factor can bind to membrane receptors and initiate a signal transduction path- way that causes the synthesis of division-facilitating enzymes. B с D A growth factor can supply necessary biomolecular building blocks for cell division by diffusing through the cell membane. A growth factor can facilitate the transport of glucose into the cell, thereby providing it with nutrients to support cell division. A growth factor can inhibit specific checkpoints in the cell cycle and allow the cell to skip or bypass certain cell cycle phases.
