Question

This process is preceded by the synthesis of DNA at the end of interphase. For 10 points each:
[10e] Name this process of cell division where chromosomes produce two daughter cells, contrasted with meiosis. It includes phases like anaphase, where chromosomes split apart at the centromere.
ANSWER: mitosis
[10m] These elements of the cytoskeleton depolymerize during anaphase. Molecular motors like dynein and kinesin use ATP to move along these filaments.
ANSWER: microtubules [prompt on tubules or protofilaments; reject microfilaments]
[10h] Initiation of anaphase is controlled by this small regulatory protein that is attached to B cyclin before degradation. This protein is ligated by the anaphase-promoting complex.
ANSWER: ubiquitin [accept ubiquitination or ubiquitinylation or answers indicating adding ubiquitin]
