During the cell cycle, proteins called cyclins bind to enzymes that send signals for the cell to progress through stages of cell replication. At the end of this cycle, the cyclins degrade to prevent further signaling for the cell to divide. Uncontrolled production of cyclins will most likely result in what?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the effects of uncontrolled production of cyclins during the cell cycle, specifically what the consequence might be. This relates to the role of cyclins in cell division and regulation.
Answer
The formation of tumors
The final answer is the formation of tumors
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is the formation of tumors
More Information
Cyclins regulate the progression of the cell cycle. If cyclins are overproduced, they can lead to unchecked cell division, a hallmark of cancer.
Tips
A common mistake is to confuse cell cycle regulation with outcomes not related to mitosis, such as cell death or haploid cell formation.
