I will add them to the argument list, still preparing a document, will file the challenge by tomorrow.
I am thinking of adding the snapshot of the standard symbols of pedigree chart from Genetics - a conceptual approach, by Benjamin a Pierce,
and snapshots of the nptel lecture video on pedigree analysis.
Can I do that?

Debasmita, for the zero order question can you please tell the edition of the levenspiel book and the exact page and question number, which you found.
I also have the levenspiel book, but i have 3rd edition and the i could not find the question there.

I am looking for more arguments to support my bid for the Cytokinesis question (18)

yes Rahul u can and the debasmita explanation was also correct

Actually the problem is that colchicine along with other options in question, Vinbalstine, nocodazole are all inhibitors of microtubule formation which inhibits mitosis, thus all three are mitotic inhibitors reported in Gerald karp book and other sources. Cytochalasin D in small concentrations inhibits the formation of actin filaments which directly inhibits the cytokinesis.


I have only a couple of research papers which have reported cytokinesis inhibition with colchicine, that might not be enough to support our challenge. Still I will give a try.
