Cancer and cell cycle control: The cell cycle‚ or cell-division cycle‚ is the series of events that takes place in a cell leading to its division and duplication (replication). In cells without a nucleus (prokaryotic)‚ the cell cycle occurs via a process termed binary fission. In cells with a nucleus (eukaryotes)‚ the cell cycle can be divided in two brief periods: interphase—during which the cell grows‚ accumulating nutrients needed for mitosis and duplicating its DNA—and the mitosis (M) phase

CELL REPRODUCTION DNA is the cell’s genetic material; chromosomes are the carriers of this genetic information. In proka-ryotes‚ the chromosome is a single circle of DNA. In eukaryotes‚ each chromosome is a complex of DNA and histone proteins found in the nucleus. BINARY FISSION Prokaryotic cells reproduce via binary fission. In this process‚ DNA Is replicated‚ and the cell splits in two roughly equal parts‚ each with a copy of the cell’s DNA. EUKARYOTIC CELL CYCLE Eukaryotic cells reproduce

Kim Witten Course Project Part I Task 1 1. National First (Prime rate is 3.25%) +6.75% = 10% Semiannually EAR = (1+.10/2) ^2 – 1 which is 10.25 Regions Best Rate is 13.17% Monthly EAR = (1+.1317/12) ^12 – 1 which is 13.99 2. I think that between National First and Regions Best that National first offers the lower rate after computing the EAR. National first is also only compounded semiannually making it lower then Regions Best. The only thing I worry about it the prime rate changing
