2.5 Growth and repair – Further questions and answers Q1. Bk Ch2 S2.5 FQ1 Identify the sites in which mitosis occurs from the following list: a skin of mammals b tips of hair and fur c red blood cells d white blood cells e root tips of flowering plants f nerve cells g cardiac muscle h production of egg and sperm i repair of skeletal muscle j larval cells of insects k retinal cells m embryo development n stem tips of land plants A1. Bk Ch2 S2.5 FA1 a, d, e, i, m, n Q2. Bk Ch2 S2.5 FQ2 Study the following graph, showing the different phases of the cell cycle. a b c Mitosis is the phase of the cell cycle during which chromosomes are most obviously active. Use the graph to estimate the percentage of time of a cell cycle that mitosis takes up. What does the graph tell you about the amount of chromosomal material in a cell at different stages in the cell cycle? Describe the activities that occur during each of the different phases. A2. Bk Ch2 S2.5 FA2 a b c 0.8 5.9 100 = 14% During G1 the amount of chromosomal material remains stable. During the S stage the amount of chromosomal material is increasing until it is doubled by the end of this stage. It is stable once again during the G2 stage. During the M stage the amount of chromosomal material in the cell decreases. G1: growth; S: DNA synthesis; G2: growth; M: mitosis (nuclear division). Q3. Bk Ch2 S2.5 FQ3 Most of your body cells have 46 chromosomes. If all of these body cells contain the same genetic information, coding for the same instructions, explain how it is that cells in different tissues of the body are different from one another. 2.4 Growth and repair FQA Copyright © Pearson Australia (a division of Pearson Australia Group Pty Ltd) page 1 of 2 A3. Bk Ch2 S2.5 FA3 Cell differentiation accounts for the differences between cells in various tissues. In the early stages of cell differentiation genes controlling the production of different proteins and functions are switched on while others are inactive or switched off. Although the same genetic information is present in all cells not all of the information is expressed in every cell. Q4.
