21. Discuss the role of microfilaments in cytokinesis
answer
Micro filaments are used in animals to accomplish cytokinesis by constricting, or pinching the cytoplasm

question
22. Summarize cell division in prokaryotes
answer
1. goes through binary fission 2. When prokaryotic DNA is duplicated, both copies attach to the plasma membrane 3. As plasma membrane grows, the attached DNA molecules are pulled apart 4. Cell completes fission and the results: 2 new cells

question
24. Complete the graphic organizer about the causes and prevention of cancer. (Left side first)
answer
Cancer is the uncontrolled growth and division of cells that is often prevented by cell-cycle checkpoints that monitor for DNA damage or spindle fiber failure and stop the cell cycle before cytokinesis

question
24. Complete the graphic organizer about the causes and prevention of cancer. (Right side next)
answer
Cancer is the uncontrolled growth and division of cells that is caused by unrepaired genetic changes or exposure to carcinogens such as tobacco, excessive X rays, and/or sun's ultraviolent raysrays
