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?

Most specialized cells remain in what phase of the cell's life cycle?

Specialized cells remain in the G0 phase of the cell cycle, where they are no longer actively dividing but are carrying out their specific functions within the organism.


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 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.


Where does the light dependent phase happen in plants?

The light-dependent phase of photosynthesis occurs in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts in plant cells. During this phase, light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll and used to convert water and sunlight into ATP and NADPH, while releasing oxygen as a byproduct. This process is essential for capturing energy that will be used in the subsequent light-independent phase, or Calvin cycle, which takes place in the stroma of the chloroplasts.


Is eukaryotic cells the timing of the cell cycle regulated by cyclins?

Yes, in eukaryotic cells, the timing of the cell cycle is regulated by cyclins. Cyclins are proteins that control the progression of the cell cycle by activating cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). The levels of different cyclins fluctuate throughout the cell cycle, signaling the cell to move from one phase to another.

What is the protein that regulates cell cycle?

The protein that regulates the cell cycle is called cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK). CDK is activated by binding to specific proteins called cyclins at different stages of the cell cycle. Together, CDK and cyclin complexes regulate the progression of the cell cycle by phosphorylating target proteins that control cell division.

The longest phase of the cell cycle is what?

The longest phase of the cell cycle is typically the interphase, which includes the G1, S, and G2 phases. The actual length of each phase can vary depending on the cell type and its specific requirements for growth and division.


The cycle that is the slowest because there is no gas phase is the what cycle?

The slowest cycle without a gas phase is the phosphorus cycle. This cycle involves the movement of phosphorus through the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere, with no gaseous phase involved.
