Question
Answer
Cell life cycle   the series of changes a cell goes through from the time it is formed until it divides  
🗑
Interphase   period in which the cell grows and carries on its ususal metabolic activities (metabolic phase)  
🗑
Cell division   time when the cell reproduces its self  
🗑
stages of mitosis   (PMAT)Prophase, metaphase,anaphase,telophase  
🗑
Mitosis   the formation of 2 daughter cells  
🗑
Prophase   as cell division begins, the chromatin treads coil and shorten so that visible barlike bodies called chromosomes appear  
🗑
Metaphase   in this short stage, chromasomes cluster and become alighned at the metaphase plate so that a straightline of chromasomes is seen  
🗑
Anaphase   the centromes that have held the chromatide together split. chromatides (now called chromosomes again) begin to move slowly apart, drawn toward opposie ends of the cell  
🗑
Telophase   essentially prophse in reverse. chromosomes at opposite ends uncoil to become thread like chromatin again, spindles break down and disappear a nuclear envelope forms around each chromatin mass, nucleoli appear in each daughter cell  
🗑
Cytokinesis   division of the cytoplasm, begins duringlate anaphase  
🗑
cleavage furrow   appears over the midline of the spindle and evetually squeezes or pinches the original cytoplasmic mass into two parts  
🗑
binucleated/multinuceated cells   in some cases the cytplasm does not divide, this condition leads to the formation of ________or______ cells (fairly common in the liver  
🗑
DNA replication process   the precise trigger for DNA synthesis is unknown. rhe process begins as DNA uncoils and gradually separates into its two nucleotides,the strands then serve as templates for building new nucleotides  
🗑
Complimentry nucleotids   Adenine bonds with tymine guanine bonds with cytosine  
🗑
Protein synthesis/protien polypeptide   DNA serve as the master bluprint for_________ __________ a gene is defined as a DNA segment that caries the information for building one____ or ______chain  
🗑
Enzymes   biological catalysts that reulate chemical reations in the cell  
🗑
rRNA (ribosomal RNA)   help form the ribosomes where proteins are built  
🗑
tRNA (transfer RNA)   help transfer amino acids from outside the nucleus into the nucleus  
🗑
mRNA (messenger RNA)   carry the instructions for protein synthesis  
🗑
RNA   ribonucleic acid , functions as messenger and decoder for specify the structure of proteins to be built at the ribosomes  
🗑
Amino acids   buildingblocks of proteins that are joined during protein synthesis (examples phenylalanine and glycine  
🗑
Triplet code   three-base sequence specifying a particular amino acid on the DNA gene  
🗑
Codons   coresponding 3 base sequences on mRNA to triplet code on DNA  
🗑
Anticodon   recognize the mRNA codon "calling for" the amino acid they are toting they can do this because they have a special three base sequence called a _________ on their "head" that can bind to the complimentary codons  
🗑
Ttranscription   involes the transfer of information from DNA's base sequence into the compimentary base sequence of mRNA  
🗑
Translation   protein synthesis, the language of nucleic acids(base sequence)is changed to the language of proteins(amino acid sequence)  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
