Results from our forumCancer and Cell cycle - cyclins/cdk/mutated genes?General questions about how cancer affects the cell cycle... 1) Does cancer actually speed up the individual phases of mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase) ... ie metaphase occurs 100x sooner following prophase in a cancer cell compared to a normal cell? or does cancer just ...

DNA and RNA Polomeraseactually that depends on the particular cell. some cells no not even decondense their chromosomes from telophase I to prophase II, but others certainly do, they form a nuclear envelope and the nuclei look interphase-like. of course, even when this does happen, the interphase is very ...

Question on chromosomes... the G1 phase, say that there are 46 chromosomes (the chromatins haven't condense),in the S phase of interphase the DNA is duplicated and later in prophase, when chromosomes are formed there'll be a double number of DNA --each chromosome is duplicated and each forms 2 chromatids; it becomes the ...

animal+plant Cell Mitosis Question... a Onion Root same as the time spend in phase in Animal Mitosis(whiteflesh blastula)? i calculated about 24% of time, the onion root is under going prophase, does that mean the whiteflesh blastula is also going under prophase 24% of the time? or is there a difference between animal and plant cell's ...
