MCB 252: Final Assessment in Molecular Cell Processes
embryonic stem cells - answers✔✔Which of the following types of cells are pluripotent?
embryonic stem cells
adult stem cells
terminall differentiated cells
TRUE - answers✔✔TRUE/FALSE
Apoptosis can occur in response to cellular damage
TRUE - answers✔✔TRUE/FALSE
Apoptosis can occur in response to normal developmental events
TRUE - answers✔✔TRUE/FALSE
As discussed in lecture, metastasis of cancer cells is thought to involve an active process of of
cell migration
terminally differentiated cells - answers✔✔Which of the following types of cells, once formed,
typically do not undergo further cell divisions?
embryonic stem cells
adult stem cells
terminally differentiated cells
TRUE - answers✔✔TRUE/FALSE
As discussed in lecture, many aspects of development and tissue formation can be viewed as
converting sheets of cells into tubes, balls, and tubular solid structures
, TRUE - answers✔✔TRUE/FALSE
Gene families are formed by gene duplication and divergence.
TRUE - answers✔✔TRUE/FALSE
As discussed in lecture, at least some types of cell movement are dependent on changes in cell
shape.
splicing - answers✔✔In lecture we discussed a process that facilitates the modular construction
of multidomain proteins. Which of the processes was that?
TRUE - answers✔✔When performing column chromatography to purify a protein of interest,
one needs an assay to identify which fractions that contain the protein of interest. True or False:
As discussed in lecture, we use a different assay for each different protein that we purify (For
instance, the assay for protein A will be different than the assay for protein B which will be
different than the assay for protein C, etc).
FALSE - answers✔✔TRUE/FALSE
Small proteins elute from a gel filtration column before large proteins
TRUE - answers✔✔TRUE/FALSE
Large proteins elute from a gel filtration column before small proteins
purify the proteins involved and study their behavior in vitro
recapitulate the process in a test tube - answers✔✔Biochemistry experimental strategy
watch the process in a microscope
follow the dynamics of particular proteins in a living cell
