Question

Predict the two possible outcomes if temperature or pH were changed within the molecular control system of cell division.

I'm pretty sure it's that the cells would divide more or divide less, right? Because the temp or pH change would cause some enzymes to denature, and then, depending on which ones denature, the regulation of cell division would be messed up and they would either divide too much or not enough?

Answer 1

Yes, pH and temperature affects the cell division.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the temperature falls between the range of 3 °C to 25 °C, the mitosis process increases but when the temperature lowers from 3 °C and exceeds from 25 °C so it decreases the rate of mitosis process because the enzymes which is responsible for the process of mitosis denatures and does not work properly. same is the case with pH, the rate of the process will increase when the pH is neutral but decreases when the pH goes lower or higher.
