Much of the Intracellular Structure of a Eukaryote Cell Is

question 80

Multiple Choice

Much of the intracellular structure of a eukaryote cell is involved in protein synthesis. The accompanying figure shows the amounts of protein in cells at different parts of the cell cycle between two cell divisions. G₁ is a stage just after the cell has divided, and G₂ is the stage just before the cell divides again. S is a stage when the cell is synthesizing material such as DNA, mitochondria, and other organelles.
-The technique used to produce the data displayed might be useful for a cancer biologist who wishes to

• A) determine whether a drug can prevent cell division.
• B) determine the effect of a drug on microtubule assembly.
• C) determine the effect of drugs on protein synthesis at various times in the cell cycle.
• D) determine the effect of a drug on mitochondrial function.
