What is the purpose of cell division in eukaryotes? What is the purpose of cellular reproduction at the cellular level and the organism level? Explain the function of the nucleus in the cell. What is the nucleus of a cell and what is the function of this organelle?
Why is the nucleus considered the control center for the cell? What is the role of the nucleus in cell division? How is the form of the nucleus related to its function? What does a nucleolus do? What does the nucleolus do? Why don't red blood cells have a nucleus?
Learn about the cell cycle control system. Discover what cell cycle regulators are, identify the purpose of the cell cycle, and examine the cell...
Intermediate filaments are cytoskeletal polymers encoded by a large family of differentially expressed genes that provide crucial structural support in the cytoplasm and nucleus of higher eukaryotes. Perturbation of their function accounts for several genetically determined diseases in which fragile cells ...
Steps of Protein Synthesis There are three main steps that lead to protein synthesis: Transcription Translation Post-translational modification In eukaryotic cells, transcription occurs in the nucleus. The enzyme RNA polymerase reads the genetic code in DNA and makes a complementary copy called messenger...
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is a technically and biologically challenging procedure during which a differentiated committed nucleus undergoes rapid reprogramming into the totipotent state in a few hours. SCNT can be utilized to generate patient- and disease-specific embryonic stem cell (ESC) ...

Resistance to antidepressant drug treatment remains a major health problem. Animal models of depression are efficient in detecting effective treatments but have done little to increase the reach of antidepressant drugs. This may be because most animal models of depression target the reversal of stress-...
What is the role of the nucleus in cell division? Why does a cell undergo mitosis? What functions do centrosomes have during mitosis? What is the significance of cell theory to biology? What is passage number in cell culture? What are the functions of cells in the human body?
