BIO 101 Exam 3-Ch 10

Cell cycle

TermDefinition
Somatic cells Everyday body cells; diploid; Mitosis
Germ line cells Reproductive cells; haploid; meiosis
Binary Fission-1 Replication of DNA; one ring; from origin to terminal point
Binary Fission-2 Septation; septum forms and pinches cell in half
Binary Fission-3 Division; cell separates; 2 identical cells
Ftsz protien facilitates septation in prokaryotes; binary fission step 3
Karyotype Array of chromosomes in an individual organism; org by shape, size, location of centromere
diploid 2 complete sets of chromosomes (2n)
haploid 1 set of chromosomes (n)
chromotin make up chromosomes; unwound
Nucleosome histone(protein) wrapped in DNA; 40% DNA 60% protein
kinetochore chromosomes' attachment point to microtubules
centromere Joins together sister chromatids
homologous chromosomes Pair of M/F chromosomes; diploid
homologue one of the chromosomes either from M/F
sister chromatids Two identical and jointed chromosomes
cohesin protein holds sister chromatids together
G1(gap phase 1) Primary growth
S(synthesis) replication of DNA
G2(gap phase 2) organelles replicate; cytoskeleton dismantled
M(Mitosis) Division on nucleus and sister chromatids
cytokinesis Division of cytoplasm
aster centrioles branch out microtubules
Prophase Chromosomes visible; Nuclear envelope breaks down; spindles form;
Prometaphase Microtubules/spindles attach to kinetochores;
Metaphase Sister chromatids line up single file in middle of cell; tension by microtubules;
Anaphase A)Kinetochores pulled to poles B)Poles themselves move apart Sister chromatids to chromosomes; one copy to each pole
Telophase Nuclear envelope reforms; spindle disassembles; Golgi and ER reform
Cytokinesis Cleavage of cell into two identical cells
C- Animal Actin pincher; pinch PM together
C- Plant Cell plate; becomes new cell wall
Checkpoints Cell checks progress and status before continuing cell cycle
G1/S Cell decides to divide; growth factors/nutrients/size of cell
G2/M Makes commitment to Mitosis; after successful DNA replication
Spindle checkpoint All chromosomes are attached to spindle; before anaphase
MPF Control factor; Maturation promoting factor; triggers growth
Cyclin activates CDC2
CDC2 cell division protien kinase; req cyclin
cdks key positive drivers of the cell cycle; on and off by phosphorylation;
APC anaphase promoting complex; marks securin for destruction;
growth factors trigger intracellular signal system; stimulate and inhibit growth

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
