CDKs are downregulated by cyclins.
Mature, differentiated cells exit the cell cycle into a resting phase called G0.
DNA damage that occurs after the Restriction Point will not arrest the cell cycle since the cell has passed the \'point of no return\'.
CDKs are activated by CKIs

QUESTION 10
Homeotic genes display spacial colinearity.
True
False
| A. | Alternative splicing occurs at extremely high levels in nervous tissue. | |
| B. | Alternative splicing alternates involves the inclusion of different exons within a given gene. | |
| C. | Alternative splicing involves the inclusion of different introns within a given gene. | |
| D. | Alternative splicing allow for multiple mRNA transcripts to be expressed from one gene |
Solution
5. Yes, it is true that the RNA components of the mRNA splicing machinary be responsible for the splicing of mRNA not the protein of the splicing machinary.
Small nuclear riboproteins are responsible for the splicing of the mRNA.
6. The false statement is \"Alternative splicing occurs at extremely high levels in nervous tissue\".
Since Alternative splicing is tissue specific but it has no any concern with the nervous tissue.
7. The false statement is \"Movement of Dissociator only occurs during early development.\"
8. Yes, An antigen can be a protein, nucleic acid, or a polysaccharide.
9. The true statements are \"Mature, differentiated cells exit the cell cycle into a resting phase called G0.\" and \"DNA damage that occurs after the Restriction Point will not arrest the cell cycle since the cell has passed the \'point of no return\'.\"
10. Yes, it is true that Homeotic genes display spatial colinearity.
