2017 · Q39

NEETBiologyCell Cycle and Cell DivisionMCQ+4 / −1
Anaphase Promoting Complex (APC) is a protein degradation machinery necessary for proper mitosis of animal cell. If APC is defective in a human cell, which of the following is expected to occur?
  1. A
    Chromosomes will be fragmented.
  2. B
    Chromosomes will not segregate.
  3. C
    Recombination of chromosome arms will occur.
  4. D

Correct answer: B

During anaphase, Anaphase Promoting Complex (APC) is a protein necessary for separation of daughter chromosomes. A defective APC will cause the chromosomes fail to segregate during anaphase.
