|
||||
| What is a chromosome? | How we hold DNA
🗑
|
||||
| What is chromatin? | One long DNA molecule & prodiens that help maintain the chromosome structure & control the activid of its genes.
🗑
|
||||
| What is a chromatid? | DNA condensed (In this form when cell is dividing)
🗑
|
||||
| What do we call two identical chromatids that are connected? | Sister chromatid
🗑
|
||||
| What is the place where the chromatids are connected called? | Centromere
🗑
|
||||
| What is the process called that bacteria use to divide? | Binary fission
🗑
|
||||
| How is a bacteria chromosome different from that of a human? | A bacteria chromosome is circular DNA and is one strand, but a human has 46 chromosomes
🗑
|
||||
| Give three reasons that cells divide. | Growth, Repair, Replace
🗑
|
||||
| What stage of the cell cycle does the stay in most of the time? | Interphase (G1)
🗑
|
||||
| What stage of the cell cycle is the cell growing? | Interphase (G1 & G2)
🗑
|
||||
| What happens in the G1 phase? | Growth & matures in cytoplasm
🗑
|
||||
| What happens in the S phase? | Duplication of chromosomes
🗑
|
||||
| What happens in the G2 phase? | Growth, Prepares to divide, Centrosomes are built.
🗑
|
||||
| Describe what the G0 phase is. | Non-dividing cell
🗑
|
||||
| Give two examples of cells that remain in interphase and do not enter into mitosis, | Brain cells, Red blood cells, Heart cells
🗑
|
||||
| What stage of the cycle is the nucleus splitting? | Mitosis
🗑
|
||||
| What do we call the original cell that eventually divides? | Parent cell
🗑
|
||||
| What do we call the two cells after the division has occurred? | Daughter Cells
🗑
|
||||
| What stage of the cell cycle is the cell splitting? | Cytokinesis
🗑
|
||||
| What are the stages of mitosis in order? | Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
🗑
|
||||
| What happens in prophase? | Spindle microtubules reach chromosomes, nuclear envelope dissapears
🗑
|
||||
| What happens in prometaphase? | Microtubules begin to emerge, chromosomes coil & become compact.
🗑
|
||||
| What happens in metaphase? | Chromosomes align at the cell equator.
🗑
|
||||
| What happens in anaphase? | Sister chromatids separate at the centromeres
🗑
|
||||
| What happens in telophase? | Nuclear envelope forms, Chromatin uncoils, Spinal disappears
🗑
|
||||
| What is cytokinesis? | Division of cell
🗑
|
||||
| How is cytokinesis different in plant and animal cells? | Animal cells completely split in half by a cleavage furrow & plant cells build a wall (Cell Plate) between each cell.
🗑
|
||||
| What stage of the cell cycle is the longest? | Interphase (G1)
🗑
|
||||
| What stage of the cell cycle is the shortest? | Cytokinesis
🗑
|
||||
| What stage of the mitosis is the longest? | Prophase
🗑
|
||||
| What stage of the mitosis is the shortest? | Anaphase
🗑
|
||||
| What does the mitotic spindle do? | Attach to kinetochore & pull chromosomes apart.
🗑
|
||||
| What is the role of a centrosome? | Organize microtubule arrangement & contain a pair of centrioles in animal cells.
🗑
|
||||
| Give three major contributing factors that control division. | Growth factors, Anchorage, Density Dependence (Space around the Cell)
🗑
|
||||
| What is the G1 checkpoint checking for? | G1 checkpoint checks if surroundings are favorable for dividing. if cell is large enough & healthy enough for dividing, and if any damage has occurred in DNA.
🗑
|
||||
| What is the G2 checkpoint checking for? | G2 checkpoint checks for the DNA properly replicated without damage, and if the cells are large enough for division.
🗑
|
||||
| When does the M checkpoint occur? | In metaphase
🗑
|
||||
| What does the M checkpoint check for? | M checkpoint checks that each centromere is attached to a spindle fiber and that chromosomes are aligned properly at the cell equator.
🗑
|
||||
| What do we call it when a cell loses control of the cell cycle? | Tumor
🗑
|
||||
| What is the difference between a tumor and cancer? | Tumor- An abnormally growing mass of cells
Cancer- Cells spread to other tissues grow rapidly without being inhibited by other cells
🗑
|
||||
| What does benign mean? | Cells remain that the original site (Tumor)
🗑
|
||||
