A)The cell cycle is stopped due to damaged DNA.
B)Programmed cell death is suppressed.
C)Macromolecule degradation is inhibited.
D)Production of growth factors is halted.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The DNA damage response occurs when DNA is damaged and several protein kinases are recruited to the site of damage and start a signaling pathway that stops the progression of the cell cycle, or cell cycle arrest. Cell cycle arrest does not involve suppressing programmed cell death, macromolecule degradation, or growth factor production.
