#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. soil water is abundant, plant dehydration takes place
  2. soil water is less abundant, the solar radiation incident on the leaf favors high photosynthetic activity, the demand for CO2 inside the leaf is large
  3. soil water is less abundant, plants avoid dehydration
  4. soil water is abundant,  stomatal pores allows the diffusional resistance for water loss from leaves

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?

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

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.
