Problem 6 - Olympiad

What mechanism allows the nucleus to regulate the cell cycle through the action of cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs)?

Correct: C

Cyclins and CDKs form complexes that activate at specific cell cycle checkpoints (e.g., G1/S, G2/M), ensuring proper sequence of events. Histone modification affects gene expression, not cycle progression.
