You perform an experiment where you prevent Cdc20 from binding to APC  in a cell line that usually completes the cell cycle in 60 minutes. Your experiment prevents Cdc20 from binding to APC for 120 minutes, and then you fix and stain the DNA, securin, separase and cohesin proteins. Which of the following would NOT be found in the observed cell?

#SCPH01 Biochemistry
  1. The cell would contain condensed chromosomes aligned at the metaphase plate.

  2. Cohesins will be localized around the sister chromatids.

  3.  Securin would be bound to separase (appear to co-localize).

  4. The DNA will be decondensed because the cell is in interphase.

Fossils of Lystrosaurus, a dicynodont therapsid, are most common in parts of modern-day South America, South Africa, Madagascar, India, South Australia, and Antarctica. It apparently lived in arid regions, and was mostly herbivorous. It originated during the mid-Permian period, survived the Permian extinction, and dwindled by the late Triassic, though there is evidence of a relict population in Australia during the Cretaceous. The dicynodonts had two large tusks, extending down from their upper jaws; the tusks were not used for food gathering, and in some species were limited to males. Food was gathered using an otherwise toothless beak. Judging from the fossil record, these pig-sized organisms were the most common mammal-like reptiles of the Permian. Anatomically, what was true of Lystrosaurus?
