Mitosis
What is Prophase?
The first step of the Mitosis process
What are Daughter cells?
The cells that result from after a Division Process
Fatty, waxy, or oily compounds that are soluble in organic solvents and insoluble in polar solvents such as water.
Lipids
What does transcription do?
Makes an RNA copy of a gene's DNA sequence
Metaphase
What is the normal state of a cell before dividing?
Interphase
A molecule that contains the genetic code that is unique to every individual
DNA
A DNA or RNA sequence of three nucleotides
Codon
What does translation do?
converts a sequence of mRNA into a sequence of amino acids.
What is Mitosis?
The process of a cell to make two daughter cells
What is Meiosis?
What are Carbohydrates?
Sugar molecules
Carries protein information from the DNA in a cell's nucleus to the cell's cytoplasm
mRNA
Transfers Amino acids to ribosomes
tRNA
What is Telophase?
The last step of the Mitosis process, when both daughter cells separate.
The smallest unit that can live on our body.
Cell.
Why are proteins important in our body?
Helps repair and build your body's tissues.
The cellular machinery responsible for making proteins.
Ribosomes
The fundamental molecule that serves as the building block for proteins
Amino Acid
What does Mitosis do?
Produces two identical daughter cells from a single cell.
What does Meiosis do?
Makes sperm and eggs
What is an Organic Molecule?
Molecules that are made of carbon and hydrogen
What is Transcription?
The process of copying DNA's instructions for protein building to an RNA molecule.
What is translation?
When the RNA is converted into a sequence of amino acids that makes up the protein.
