Irradiated mammalian cells usually stop dividing and arrest at a G1/S checkpoint. Place the following events in the order in which they occur. accumulation and activation of p53 production of CDI (Cdk inhibitor) inhibition of cyclin–Cdk complexes DNA damage

 Indicate whether each of the following statements related to cancer is likely to be true or false. A cell line has a mutated Ras protein that is always active. A drug that can prevent the receptor tyrosine kinase from binding to the growth factor will not inhibit the division of this cell line.  [1] The inhibition of negative immune regulation has been used to develop anti-immune-checkpoint antibodies. These antibodies release a killer cell attack on cancer cells. This has been used for effective treatment of metastatic melanoma. [2] Because cancer cells divide faster than normal cells, they are more dependent on other cells to provide growth factors. [3] S-CDK should be classified as a potential oncogene. [4] Tumor progression involves successive rounds of randomly inherited change followed by natural selection. [5] Many cancer cells activate telomerase to bypass the built-in limit to cell proliferation.[6] Because certain mutations in tumor suppressor genes contribute to cancer development, cancer researchers should be attempting to design drugs that will inhibit tumor suppressor genes like p53.
