Compare and contrast the processes of cell cycle and apoptosis and give an example of a drug or toxin that affects each of these processes.
INDICATE WHETHER THE STATEMENT IS TRUE OR FALSE
1. Pelle is an inhibitory protein. 2. Tube is an activating protein.3. Dorsal is a transcription factor.4. Dorsal promotes dorsalization of the cell.
Can the below be added to the answer:
Some common cytopathic effects include:
Cell rounding and detachment: The infected cells may become rounded and detach from the underlying surface, leading to cell death and tissue damage.
Cell lysis: In lytic infections, the virus utilizes the host cell's resources to produce new virus particles. As a result, the infected cell eventually bursts (lysis), releasing the newly formed viruses, which can go on to infect neighboring cells.
Formation of inclusion bodies: Some viruses induce the formation of distinct structures called inclusion bodies within the infected cells. These inclusion bodies are often aggregates of viral proteins or nucleic acids and can be visualized under a microscope.
Cell fusion: Certain viruses have the ability to cause infected cells to fuse together, forming multinucleated giant cells. This fusion enhances viral spread and can lead to the destruction of affected tissues.
Cellular damage and functional impairment: Viral…

How will the course of the infection be affected by this treatment? The infection's length will remain the same because viruses do not have DNA or RNA, and so antibiotics do not affect them. The infection's length will be shorter because antibiotics can prevent viral entry into the cell by binding to host-receptor proteins. The infection's length will remain the same because antibiotics have no effect on eukaryotic cells or viruses. The infection's length will be shorter because antibiotics activate the immune system, and this decreases the severity of the infection.arrow_forwardIn relation to immunotechnology, answer the following: A- Answer the following in relation to Hybridoma technology: → What is the cancer cell line name used in hybridoma technology?arrow_forward
