Seen as quite offensive for some, especially older groups and British Asian females, with its sexual connotations. For others it is seen as a middle of the road sort of word. Most offensive word to majority, and never really acceptable (though some might occasionally use).
Cyclins go hand in hand with kinases. Cyclins do not cause a cell to progress in the cell cycle because cyclins are mere proteins that regulate the rate of the process, and how fast the cell progresses through this process. Cyclins also act by binding to various kinases, which are enzymes that transfer a phosphate group from ATP to other enzymes. The phosphate group activates these enzymes. The quantity of these kinases in the cell remains steady throughout the cell cycle; however they are active only when bound to cyclins.
The function of mitosis is to divide a cell's nucleus with its chromosomes into two daughter cell nuclei, each of which inherits the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Consider mitosis in human cells, each of which contains forty-six chromosomes.he other major difference in plants is the way in which cytokinesis occurs. In animal cells, the plasma membrane pinches in along the midline of the cell, creating a cleavage furrow that will separate the cytoplasm in two. Plant cells have rigid cell walls that prevent this.
