HL Cell Cycle

TermDefinition
1. Astral microtubules reach out from chromosomes
2. Benign tumor not hazardous to health tumor
3. Binary fission Prokaryotic reproduction (their version of m-phase)
4. Cancer Uncontrolled replication of cells (caused by damage to DNA)
5. Cell cycle 2 stages: Interphase & M-phase
6. Cell plate The plant version of the cleavage furrow
7. Centromere where spindle fibers attach on the centriol
8. Chromatin combo protein & DNA
9. Chromosome package of DNA / genetic info
10. Cleavage furrow pinching in of animal cell membrane during telophase
11. Cyclin-dependent kinase protein essential for enzymatic activity
12. Cyclins subunit of cyclin-dependent kinase
13. Cytokinesis separation of cytoplasm
14. Histones structural protein that gets wrapped in DNA to keep (the DNA) organized
15. Interphase G1 (gap phase) S (synthesis) G2 (growth phase)
16. Karyotype A person's complete set of chromosomes
17. Kinetochore what spindle fibers attach to on chromosomes
18. Kinetochore microtubule Attach to kineticore
19. M phase Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
20. Malignant tumor dangerous to health tumor
21. Metaphase plate chromosomes line up
22. Metastasis the spread of cancer cells from the location of first formation to the rest of the body
23. Mitosis Nuclear replication/division (3/4 of m-phase)
24. Mitotic Index ratio of cells in mitosis to total cells: Mitotic cells/total cells
25. Motor proteins "walk along" overlap microtubeules
26. Mutagens cases genetic mutation(s) (chemical, physical, or biological mutagens)
27. Nucleosome 8 histones wrapped in DNA
28. Oncogenes Gene that prompts cell division
29. Overlap microtubules Pull together or elongate cells
30. Sister chromatids the duplicated chromosomes, look like X
31. Spindle microtubule fibers help align/separate sister chromatids (come from centrosomes)
32. Tumor abnormal tissue mass from cells dividing more & dying less
33. Tumor suppressor genes helps controll cell 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.
