| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 1 growth phase? | when the cell is growing and developing its organelles (G1) |
| what happens in synthesis phase? | the chromosomes replicate in the nucleus 2x |
| What is prophase? | the centrioles move to opposite poles, the nuclear envelope disappears and the chromosomes coil up into visible structures. |
| when do spindles attach to chromosomes and line up in the middle? | During metaphase |
| what is anaphase? | spindle fibres retract and pulls 1/2 of the chromosomes towards each centriole. |
| what is telophase? | spindle fibres are back the centrioles and nuclear envelopes start to form back around both sets of chromosomes |
| what is cell check point 1? | lack of nutrients to supports growth. |
| what is cell check point 2? | the DNA strands have not been replicated or damaged |
| cell check point 3? | the chromosomes have not attached themselves to spindle fibres & have not moved opposite sides |
| what is cytokinesis? | when the cell membrane pinches off and divides into 2 daughter cells. |
| what is apoptosis? | when the cell dies because it is too old |
| what organelle is responsible for apoptosis? | lysosomes |
| what are cancer cells | cell that undergo mitosis an unlimited number of times, |
| what is the term for cells that clump together due to uncontrollable urge to divide. | a tumor |
| describe tumors | they never die on its own and it does not function properly, the DNA becomes mutated by genetics Ex. smoking, vaping |
