DNA
Number of cells produced at the end of mitosis.
Two
AUG GCA UGA
Diffusion of water
Osmosis
Four types of organic molecules found in the body.
Proteins, Carbs, Lipids, Nucleic Acids
Mitochondria
Number of chromosomes in a cell during G1 of interphase.
46 chromosomes
The process of stem cells turning into specific other types of cells in the body by turning genes on and off.
Cell Differentiation
Specific type of cell transport where a substance moves from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration through a channel protein
Facilitated Diffusion
Proteins
Organelle in the cell where protein synthesis occurs.
Ribosome
Phase of mitosis where chromosomes line up down the center of the cell.
Metaphase
Protein Synthesis
The type of cell transport where a piece of the cell membrane pinches off and forms a vesicle around a substance coming into the cell.
Endocytosis
Type of metabolic reaction that breaks down polymers into monomers.
Catabolism
Organelle in the cell that creates digestive enzymes to break down unwanted substances.
Lysosome
Phase of the cell cycle that cells spend most of their time in.
Interphase
Monomers of proteins are called this.
Amino acids
Type of energy used to power all forms of active transport.
ATP
Denature
Type of molecule that makes up the cell membrane.
Phospholipids
Strings that attach to centromeres and pull the chromosomes around the cell.
Spindle Fibers
The product of transcription.
mRNA
Type of an environment that causes plasmolysis to occur in a cell.
Hypertonic Solution
