For an average human fibroblast, the time taken for a cell to divide into two daughter cells is between 18 and 24 hours. In a laboratory experiment, human fibroblast cells are exposed to growth factors for one hour, and then a compound that inhibits cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) is added to the cells. Which of the following statements best describes the state of fibroblast cells after addition of the CDK inhibitor?

A) The fibroblasts fail to go through the G1 checkpoint and remain in the G1 phase.
B) The fibroblasts fail to go through the G2 checkpoint and remain in the G2 phase.
C) The fibroblasts have passed the G1 checkpoint and have entered the S phase, where they remain.
D) The fibroblasts have passed the G1 and G2 checkpoints and have entered the M phase, where they remain.

The empty trna moves off and picks up another matching amino acid from the cytoplasm in the cell. the anticodon of the trna, with its attached amino acid, pairs to the codon of the mrna, which is attached to a ribosome. this sequence is repeated until the ribosome reaches a stop codon on the mrna, which signals the end of protein synthesis. the ribosome forms a peptide bond between the amino acids, and an amino acid chain begins to form. when a second trna with its specific amino acid pairs to the next codon in sequence, the attached amino acid breaks from the first trna and is bonded to the amino acid of the second trna.
