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

3 Phases of Carbon Cycle Phase 1: Carbon fixation The Calvin cycle incorporates each CO2 molecule by attaching it to a five-carbon sugar named ribulose biophosphate (abbreviated RuBP). The enzyme that catalyzes this step is RuBP carboxylase‚ or rubisco. The product of the reaction is a six carbon intermediate so unstable that it immediately splits in half to form two molecules of 3-phoshpyglycerate (for each CO2) Phase 2: Reduction Each molecule of 3-phsophoglycerate receives an additional

G1 (Restriction) Checkpoint * End of G1‚ just before onset of the S phase (DNA replication) * Yeast “start”; other eukaryotes “restriction point” * The options for the cell at this point: * divide‚ delay division‚ or exit the cell cycle * Cells can exit the cell cycle at this point into an arrested stage (G0) * When this checkpoint is passed‚ cdk4 and cyclin D

may seem like a significant increase‚ from a country’s perspective the growth is mediocre. This growth in real GDP ranks Uruguay as 94th world-wide in GDP purchasing power parity. Uruguay’s economy is in an expansionary peak phase of the Business Cycle as evidenced by the fact that GDP (purchasing power parity) was $44.029 billion in 2009 due to the world-wide economic crisis as a result of the United States’ Great Recession. Therefore the 2013 Uruguay rGDP of $56.27 billion shows a strong rebound

The water cycle is nature’s way of showing how water moves around. The water cycle is a continuous cycle where water evaporates‚ travels into the air and becomes part of a cloud‚ falls down to earth as precipitation‚ and then evaporates again. This never ending cycle is everywhere. One of the places that it occurs in is the Amazon Rainforest. The Amazon Rainforest is a unique habitat filled with wildlife. With its tropical weather‚ the Amazon has an abundance amount of rain per year. In addition
