Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Mitosis is the process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells that happen when parent cell divides to form two identical daughter cells. Stem cells are the undifferentiated cells of a multicellular organism which is capable of giving rise to a variety of cells

- Please someone help me with all of these questions(maybe a short explation of why it is the answer) 1. the evolution of the eukaryotic cell, these cells have key changes that include which of the following: a) These cells reproduce by copying their DNA perfectly each generation. b) They have their DNA in the nucleoid area. c) have adapted the mesosome membrane system of the prokaryote to form a nucleus and an endoplasmic reticulum. d) each new type on new eukaryote cell has its own mesosomes e) none of these are true. 2. The evolution/development of the skeletal system found in the Deuterostomes, is made up of two molecules, Ca+2PO4-2 and collagen These molecules are produced released from by a specialized type of stem cell. Therefore, one would expect that these stem cells perform which of the following a) the storage and the release of Ca+2PO4-2 and collagen from vesicles from the Golgi apparatus, b) high levels of protein synthesis c) active transport of amino acids and ions…arrow_forwardNucleolus is present in _______________of cell cycle and ________________ of mitosis.arrow_forwardA kinetochore is a___________ structure that forms on a chromatid during cell division and allows it to attach to a spindle fiber on a chromosome.arrow_forward
