There are many points during the cell cycle when the process of division may stop because of a problem. Sometimes the process doesn’t stop. Summarize the function of apoptosis in the cell cycle.

to repair damaged or old cells

to destroy damaged or old cells

to allow the cell to rest before the cell cycle restarts

to facilitate cell reproduction before the cell cycle restarts

When mutated cells ignore checkpoints, they reproduce uncontrollably, forming tumors. During which stage of the cell cycle does the cell divide into two cells?

M

G1

S

G2

Some cells ignore cell cycle checkpoints and continue to grow and divide uncontrollably despite cellular or genetic damage. What disease may directly result from such behavior?(1 point)

Checkpoints ready the cells for genetic material replication.

Checkpoints allow complete cells to bypass stages of the cycle.

Checkpoints stop the cell cycle when errors are detected.

A cell contains DNA damage that causes it to undergo apoptosis before reaching mitosis. This cell had twice the amount of DNA for a cell of this type. During which checkpoint did this cell trigger apoptosis?(1 point)

G1 Checkpoint

G2 Checkpoint

M Checkpoint

No checkpoint meets these criteria.

Answers: To destroy damaged or old cells. M. Cancer Checkpoints stop the cell cycle when errors are detected. G2 Checkpoint

Remember you can trust my answers if YOU want to.

So Coconut uhhhh when are we getting married?

coconut kiss me ong

Idk who you are coconut but you are amazing bro

1. To destroy damaged or old cells

2. M
3. Cancer
4. Checkpoints stop the cell cycle when errors are detected
5. G2 Checkpoint

100%. Just took the test.

Thanks just got a 100 :)

its hella vibes in her yo!

Ok, Coconut is the best guy on the internet EVER

Coconut I can host a party for you for this one. All you can eat buffet, ice cream, cake, wings, pizza, Chinese food, anything u want man. You deserve it after that one.
