8What is the process of mitosis?

17The osmotic pressure is dependent on the total concentration of all solutes.
- ATrue
- BFalse
18The osmotic pressure is the pressure applied to prevent inward flow of water across a semi-permeable membrane.

- BFalse
19With osmolarity problems, the permeable solute will move to concentrations of lower permeable solute. With tonicity problems, water will move to the area with the highest concentration of non-permeable solute.
- ATrue
- BFalse
20A small change in the concentration of organic ions creates a small potential difference across the membrane.
- ATrue
- BFalse
21If K+ leaves the cell, the negative charge created in the cell will attract the positive K+ back into the cell and therefore there is typically no net movement of ions.
- ATrue
- BFalse
22Why is Goldmann's equation more useful than Nernst's?
- AGoldmann's equation takes into account all of the organic ions that are involved in the resting membrane potential and also their permeabilities whereas Nernst's only takes into account one type of ion and not the permeability.
- BNernst's equation takes into account all of the organic ions that are involved in the resting membrane potential and also their permeabilities whereas Goldmann's only takes into account one type of ion and not the permeability.
23Ions with a greater concentration outside of the cell always have a negative equilibrium potential.
- ATrue
- BFalse
24Ions with a greater concentration inside the cell always have a negative equilibrium potential.
- ATrue
- BFalse
25The RMP of a cell is closest to potassium because potassium is the most permeable ion. RMP is determined by the membranes high permeability to potassium.

31The ECM are basement membrane are needed for development of cells. Without these factors, the cell has a disorganised structure.
- ATrue
- BFalse
32Why do burns victims not have a good prognosis?
- AThe basement membrane is sometimes destroyed which contains stem cells. Absence of these stem cells means that cell proliferation cannot take place and thus skin doesn't regrow.
- BThe cytoskeleton is sometimes destroyed which contains stem cells. Absence of these stem cells means that cell proliferation cannot take place and thus skin doesn't regrow.
- CThe granular layer of epidermis is sometimes destroyed which contains stem cells. Absence of these stem cells means that cell proliferation cannot take place and thus skin doesn't regrow.
33Integrins are heterodimeric receptors that are bound to ECM trigger active intracellular responses that impact on cell proliferation / attachments.
- ATrue
- BFalse
34Various cell factors may tell the cell to do which of the following things?
- AProliferate (Growth factors)
- BBecome dormant (Survival factors)

- AS phase

- CG2
- DM
- ER point - 3/4 through G1
36When growth factors bind to tyrosine kinase receptors, what happens intracellularly?
- ATyr residues are phosphorylated which generates internal effects
- BTyr residues are dephosphorylated which generates internal effects
37Phosphorylation of Tyr residues produces intracellular effects
- ATrue
- BFalse
38Tyrosine phosphorylation is associated with cancer cell death.
- ATrue
- BFalse
39Proteins recognise phosphorylated tyrosine domains. GDP is then substituted for GTP in RAS. Why is the hydrolysis of GTP important?
- AIt terminates cell proliferation signals which prevents excessive cell proliferation.
- BGTP hydrolysis occurs in cancer and leads to excessive cell proliferation.
40Without checkpoints that regulate the cell cycle, such as the role of TGF-b, loss of checkpoints occur and genomic instability and thus cell proliferation occurs.
- ATrue
- BFalse
41Cyclin proteins increase the quantity of Cyclin dependent kinases.
- ATrue
- BFalse
