As water is lost to the air, the surface of the remaining water is drawn into the interstices of the cell wall, where it forms curved air–water interfaces

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant

As more water is removed from the wall, the radius of curvature of the air–water interfaces increases and the pressure of the water becomes more negative
As more water is removed from the wall, the radius of curvature of the air–water interfaces decreases and the pressure of the water becomes more negative
As more water is removed from the wall, the radius of curvature of the air-water interfaces increases and the pressure of the water becomes more positive
As more water is removed from the wall, the radius of curvature of the air-water interfaces decreases and the pressure of the water becomes more negative

Following statements are regarding to regulation of S phase and mitotic cyclin levels in budding yeast.

A. In late anaphase, the anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C) ubiquitinylates S phase and mitotic cyclins.

B. In late anaphase, the anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C) phosphorylates S phase and mitotic cyclins.

C. During exit from mitosis and G1, Cdh1 is dephosphorylated and active; during S phase and mitosis, Cdh1 is phosphorylated and dissociates from APC/C, and APC/C becomes inactive.

D. During exit from mitosis and G1, Cdh1 is phosphorylated and active; during S phase and mitosis, Cdh1 is dephosphorylated and dissociates from APC/C, and APC/C becomes inactive.

E. The G1/S phase CDKs, which themselves are not APC/CCdh1 substrates, phosphorylate Cdh1 at the G1–S phase transition.

F. The G1/S phase CDKs, which themselves are not APC/CCdh1 substrates, ubiquitinylates Cdh1 at the G1–S phase transition.

In 2001, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to three cell cycle scientists. Paul Nurse was recognized for his studies with the fission yeast S. pombe, in particular for the discovery and characterization of the wee1+ gene. What did the characterization of the wee1+ gene tell us about cell cycle control?
