Can chemotherapy be cell cycle dependent but not phase specific (ex. pls)?
FredrikAhlstrmgp3692
All phase specific types are by definition cell cycle specific? But does it work the other way around? (i.e. are there any types that are only cell cycle specific but not phase dependent?)
Would like to now about the four main types of chemo.
Alkylating agents - cell cycle independent
Mitotic inhibitors - phase dependent?
Topoisomerase inhibitors - both phase dependent and/or cell cycle dependent?
Antimetabolites - phase specific?

Some cancer-fighting drugs disrupt the cell cycle by preventing the formation of spindle fibers. Which specific phase of the cell cycle is such a drug most likely to disrupt?
M phase (apex)
What phase of the cell cycle does mitosis start?
Mitosis is a phase of the cell cycle. It occurs after the G2 phase.
What is the longest phase of the entire cell cycle?
Interphase is the longest phase in the cell cycle lasting 18 of the 20 hour cycle. In mitotic cell division cycle,the longest phase is G1 phase which lasts for 10 hours,S phase is for 9 hours,G2 phase for 4 hours and shortest phase is M phase which lasts for 1 hour.
In which phase of the cell cycle does the nucleus divide through a series of steps?
M phase of the cell cycle
What is the dominant phase of an angiosperm life cycle?
The (2n) sporophyte is the dominant life cycle for an angiosperm
What phase of the hydrologic cycle is dependent on plants?
transpiration
How many reactions take place in photosynthesis?
2 the light dependent phase and the Calvin Cycle
What is the protein that regulates cell cycle?
The proteins that participate in the functioning of the checkpoints for cell cycle control are cyclins. The cell cycle controls cyclin dependent kinases as well.

What is machine dependent phase in compiler?
1. Target code generation 2. Machine Specific code improvement
Is photolysis in the Calvin cycle?
The Calvin Cycle take in CO2 and gives off sugar (CH2O).
What phase of the cell cycle does mitosis start?
Mitosis is a phase of the cell cycle. It occurs after the G2 phase.
What is the phase of the menstrual cycle when the endometrium is degenerating?
The phase of the menstrual cycle when the endometrium is degenerating is the menstrual phase. During this phase, the lining of the uterus sheds and is expelled from the body along with blood.
What is the longest phase of the entire cell cycle?
Interphase is the longest phase in the cell cycle lasting 18 of the 20 hour cycle. In mitotic cell division cycle,the longest phase is G1 phase which lasts for 10 hours,S phase is for 9 hours,G2 phase for 4 hours and shortest phase is M phase which lasts for 1 hour.
What is the first phase of the cell cycle?
The first phase of the cell cell cycle is interphase, followed by pro-phase, meta-phase, telo-phase, and ending with ana-phase. Enjoy!
Where does the checkpoint regulate in the cell cycle?
G1 phase, G2 phase of the cell cycle
Longest phase in cell cycle?
The G1 phase
