Duration of a cell cycle in yeast is approximately (a) 90 seconds (b) 90 minutes (c) 20 minutes (d) 45 minutes
Our cell can divide itself once approximately in (a) 24 hours (b) 24 minutes (c) 24 seconds (d) 24 days
A complete cell cycle in yeast takes 90 minutes. A pure culture of a yeast strain with a conditional, temperature-sensitive mutation in a cell division cycle gene (cdcts) is grown at a low, permissive temperature, then shifted to a higher, restrictive temperature for 2 hours. Just before the shift to high temperature, the culture will contain (lysed, growing, non-growing, different stages, the same stage) cells at (lysed, growing, non-growing, different stages, the same stage) of the cell cycle; after two hours, it will contain (lysed, growing, non-growing, different stages, the same stage) cells at (lysed, growing, non-growing, different stages, the same stage) of the cell cycle.
