Chapter 3: Cell Anatomy and Mitosis
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Parts of a cell | Plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, nucleolus, rough ER, smooth ER, ribosomes, mitochondria, golgi apparatus, and vesicles |
| Plasma membrane | Separates inside from outside of the cell (semi-permeable) |
| Cytoplasm | Fluid containing organelles |
| Nucleus | Contains chromatin (uncondensed DNA) |
| Nucleolus | Where the cell makes ribosomes |
| rough ER | Where proteins are made and/or excreted (DNA makes RNA makes protein) |
| Smooth ER | Where lipids are made |
| Ribosomes | Synthesizes proteins (located in the cytoplasm and ER) |
| Mitochondria | Where ATP is made for energy |
| Golgi apparatus | Adds glucose and/or other sugars to proteins (glycosylation) |
| Vesicles | Transports proteins |
| Mitosis | Creating two identical daughter cells from one cell |
| Parts of mitosis | Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis, chromosome, chromatin. spindle, centriole, and kinetochore |
| Phases of mitosis | IPMAT: Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase |
| Interphase | Actively growing cell preparing for cell division |
| Prophase | Cell has two spindles on opposite sides and nucleus is dissolved |
| Metaphase | Chromosome pairs are lined up in the middle |
| Anaphase | Chromosome pairs are divided and go to opposite sides |
| Telophase | Cytokinesis occurs and the two daughter cells separate |
| Cytokinesis | Process of dividing the cytoplasm |
| Chromosome | Pair of chromatin containing DNA for a trait |
| Chromatin | Half of a chromosome containing DNA |
| Spindle | Pulls chromosomes towards opposite ends of the cell |
| Centriole | Causes the spindles to form |
| Kinetochore | Connects the spindles to the chromosomes |
