identify correct order of Eukaryotic cell...

  1. G1, G2, S, M ,cytokinesis

  2. G1, G2, M , S ,cytokinesis

  3. G1, M , G2 ,cyokinesis , S

  4. G1 , S , G2 ,M , cytokinesis


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

G$ _1$ , S , G$ _2$, M , cytokinesis. The correct sequence has G$ _1$ as a preparation for S and G$ _2$ as the time between the completion of S and entry into M. Cytokinesis occurs after the other stages to create two daughter cells.

So, the correct answer is 'G$ _1$ , S , G$ _2$, M, cytokinesis'

Cell wall thickning and protoplasmic modification during growth of plants occur in ________________.

  1. Maturation phase

  2. Meristematic phase

  3. Elongation phase

  4. Secretory phase


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

In the maturation phase, the enlarged cells eventually acquire a specific size and form according to their location and role following biochemical, physiological and morphological changes, i.e., the cells undergo specialization or transformation. As a result, various kinds of cells get differentiated. These differentiated cells form different kinds of simple and complex tissues that perform different functions. This includes cell wall growth and protoplasm modification.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Maturation phase'

The stage of cell cycle when cell does not undergo differentiation is

  1. G$ _0$

  2. G$ _1$

  3. G$ _2$

  4. S$ _4$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The cell cycle mainly consists of 4 stages G$ _1$, S, G$ _2$, and M. The G$ _{0}$ phase also known as the extended G1 phase is a period in which the cell exits from the cell cycle. In this stage, the cell exists in a quiescent state and does not divide. Thus the correct answer is option A.

During cell cycle, RNA and protein synthesis takes place during which of the following phase?

  1. G$ _1$ and G$ _2$ phase

  2. S phase

  3. M phase

  4. Cytokinesis


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

During the cell cycle, RNA and protein synthesis takes place during G$ _1$ and G$ _2$ phase. The cell cycle is an ordered set of events, culminating in cell growth and division into two daughter cells. Non-dividing cells not considered to be in the cell cycle. The stages are G$ _1$-S-G$ _2$-M.

So, the correct answer is option A.

The sequence of cell cycle is

  1. S,M,G$ _{1}$, and G$ _{2}$

  2. G$ _{1}$,G$ _{2}$,S and M

  3. G$ _{1}$,S,$G _{2}$, and M

  4. M,G$ _{1},$,G$ _{2}$ and S


Correct Option: C
Explanation:
  • Cell enters cell cycle at G$ _1$ (First Gap) phase, where the cell grows larger, doubles organelles and synthesizes proteins, enzymes and all other biochemical molecules required for efficient completion of cell division.
  • Then cell enters S (synthesis) phase, where cell synthesizes a complete copy of the genomic DNA inside the nucleus. It also duplicates centrosome which is required for separation of DNA to opposite poles during mitosis.
  • Then cell enters the G$ _2$ (Second Gap) phase, where cell grows more and produces more proteins and organelles required for mitosis. Cell also reorganize its contents for mitosis to occur. G$ _2$ phase also acts as a checkpoint to ensure that the cell is ready for mitosis.
  • The end of G$ _2$ phase is the beginning of M (Mitosis) phase, where the real cell division occurs. The cell divides its doubled DNA and cytoplasmic contents to form two daughter cells.
So, the correct option is 'G$ _1$, S, G$ _2$and M'.

The various phases of the cell cycle will be affected by limiting growth factors like

  1. Sufficient nucleotides

  2. Temperature

  3. Nutrients

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

G1 phase and the other subphases of the cell cycle may be affected by limiting growth factors such as nutrient supply, temperature, and room for growth. Sufficient nucleotides  and amino acids must be present in order to synthesize mRNA and proteins. Physiological temperatures are optimal for cell growth. In humans, the normal physiological temperature is around 37 C. Therefore, the correct answer is option D.

The correct order of the various phases of eukaryotic cell cycle is ____________.

  1. G${ _1}$ to S to G${ _2}$ to M to cytokinesis

  2. G${ _1}$ to G${ _2}$ to M to S to mitosis

  3. G${ _1}$ to G${ _2}$ to S to M to karyokinesis

  4. S to G${ _1}$ to G${ _2}$ to M to cytokinesis

  5. G${ _2}$ to M to S to G${ _1}$ to cytokinesis


Correct Option: A

Identify, the correct sequence of the cell cycle events.
I. Nuclear membrane dissolves
II. Cell size increases
III. Two daughter cells form
IV. DNA replicates

  1. I, IV, II and III

  2. I, IV, III and II

  3. II, I, IV and III

  4. II, IV, I and III

  5. IV, II, III and I


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The cell cycle includes a series of events, that take place  in a cell which leads to the duplication of DNA and division of cells to form two daughter cells. This takes place in three different  periods and can be referred to as Interphase , Mitotic phase(M) and cytokinesis. While during the interphase or the initial phase, the cells grow in size and is ready for division, during the mitosis, the DNA starts duplicating, the nuclear membrane dissolves and the cells starts its division process to give rise to  two distinct daughter cells. Cytokinesis is the stage during which the two daughter cells are formed and separated.
So, the correct answer is option D.

Mitotic cell cycle is divided typically into four phases, $G _1$, S, $G _2$ and M. Considering a mitotic cycle time of $18$ hours, the distribution of period of time(in hours) for each of these phase will be. $G _1$S$ _2$M.

  1. $1, 3, 5, 9$

  2. $9, 1, 3, 5$

  3. $9, 5, 3, 1$

  4. $3, 5, 9, 1$


Correct Option: A
