What is the protective cap of DNA on the tip of chromosomes?
The telomere is the protective cap of DNA on the tip of chromosomes. You lose a small amount of these telomeres each time the cell divides. Eventually the telomeres be lost as you age. Short chromosomes because of lack telomeres are one reason aging occurs.
In a diploid cell in which 2n equals 14 how many telomeres are there in each of the follow phases of the cell cycle a. G1 b. G2 c. mitotic prophase d. mitotic telophase?
There are two telomeres for each chromosome, so you need to figure out how many chromosomes there are at each stage and multiply that by two. G1-- growth phase: 14 chromosomes = 28 telomeres G2-- growth phase after replication in S phase: 28 chromosomes= 56 telomeres Mitotic Prophase-- before cell division, nuclear membrane disappears: 28 chromosomes= 56 telomeres Mitotic telophase-- nuclei separate: 14 chromosomes = 28 telomeres
Do humans possess telomerase, the enzyme responsible for maintaining the length of telomeres?
Yes, humans do possess telomerase, the enzyme responsible for maintaining the length of telomeres.

What is a telomere and how does it affect cloned animals?
Telomeres are DNA sequences at both ends of a chromosomes that shrink in length every time the DNA is copied. In cloned animals the telomeres are usually longer than those of the same animal naturally conceived.
What is the base word of lengthen?
The base word for lengthen is long > length > lengthen
Is obesity related to telomeres?
Yes. We all begin as 1 cell and as it divides the telomeres become shorter. Larger people have more cells than smaller people and therefore have shorter telomeres.
