The Cell Cycle
Where does DNA replication occur?
Synthesis
Anaphase
apo-:
end, destroy
group of cells on an organism that develop and then break away to become a new organism
Budding
A feature passed from parent to offspring or shaped by the environment.
Trait
During which stage of interphase is the first critical checkpoint?
G1, Gap 1
The phase of mitosis where the nuclear membrane breaks down, with the condensed chromosomes inside.
Prophase
-elle:
Fastest form of asexual reproduction
Binary Fission
Genes
During which stage of interphase do organelle numbers increase?
Gap 2, G2
The final stage of Mitosis which results in two daughter cells that are identical.
Cytokinesis
-kine-:
Accidental replication: When a broken piece of an organism generates a new organism
This means a change in the DNA sequence of an organism.
Mutation
What is the correct order of Interphase stages?
G1, S, G2
Order the phases of mitosis
P, M, A, T, C
-ly-:
to break
Asexual Reproduction results in ...
two identical daughter cells or organisms
Why is a small cell more efficient than a larger cell?
Greater surface area to volume ration
What is the stage of Interphase that only some cells ever enter, where they are neither dividing nor preparing to divide. Hint:Neurons
G0, resting phase
DAILY DOUBLE!!!!
This is the phase where the cell undergoes the spindle checkpoint.
Metaphase
soma-:
body
Contractile Ring and Cleavage Furrow
The Cell Membrane is made of this.
Phospholipid Bilayer
