Question

Can’t decide if it it is A or C.. 9. During mitosis, the cell was in need of a new enzyme that was not present in the cytoplasm in order to complete the division process. Infer if it is possible for the enzyme to be synthesized at this point in mitosis and explain your response. a. If the new enzyme was not present in the cytoplasm in order to complete the division process then it cannot synthesize enzymes at this point in mitosis. This is because the genetic material is coiled up and cannot unzip to bring about protein synthesis. Protein synthesis occurs during interphase when the genetic material is in the chromatin state b. If the new enzyme was not present in the cytoplasm in order to complete the division process then it cannot synthesize enzymes at this point in mitosis. This is because the genetic materials in coiled up and cannot unzip to bring about protein synthesis. Protein synthesis occurs during interphase when the genetic material is in a chromosome state. c. If the new enzyme was not present in the cytoplasm in order to complete the division process then it can synthesize the enzyme during prophase before the chromatin coils up to form the chromosomes. So protein synthesis will take place to produce the needed enzyme

Explanation / Answer

A) enzymes needed for mitotic division is present in inactive form, these enzymes are activated by proteins, theses proteins formation occur at the time of interphase. Like CDK(cycling dependent kinase) by cyclin binding via posphorylation of T loop threnonin. These enzymes are inheritable from one generation to next inactive form.
