Th answer is ‘the onset of m phase would be delayed’. Cdks are kinases, enzymes that phosphorylate (attach phosphate groups to) specific target proteins. The attached phosphate group acts like a switch, making the target protein more or less active. Cdks must also be phosphorylated on a particular site in order to be active, and may also be negatively regulated by phosphorylation of other sites.
