Cells
The place where Cellular respiration occurs.
Mitochondria
Phase that takes up most of the cell cycle
Interphase
Deoxyribonucleic acid
DNA
Unspecialized cells
Stem Cells
Uncontrolled cell division
Cancer
The outer layer of a plant cell
Cell Wall
Happens after mitosis
Cytokinesis
Adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine
Nitrogenous Bases
These cells contain a large vacuole designed for storing energy in the form of lipids
Fat cells
A Mass of cancerous cells that does not harm nearby tissues
Benign Tumour
CO2 + H2O --> C6H12O6 + O2
Photosynthesis
These move to opposite "poles" of the cell during metaphase
Centrioles
Long chains of sugars (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups that make up part of the DNA structure
Sugar-phosphate backbone
These specialized cells lack a nucleus and contain a protein called hemoglobin
Erythrocytes
Environmental factors/sources that can lead to cancer
Carcinogen
Processes materials to be removed from the cell
Golgi Body
Phase of mitosis where spindle fibers attach to the centromeres
Metaphase
Long chains of primarily DNA
Chromatin
These specialized cells are primarily responsible for immune response
Leukocytes
When a cancerous cells breaks off and spreads to another part of the body
Metastasis
The area within a prokaryotic cell where genetic information is concentrated
Nucleoid
The sub-phase of interphase when DNA replication occurs
S-Phase
Humans have this many pairs of chromosomes
23
These specialized cells have lots of mitochondria to supply their intense energy usage
Muscle cells
The name of a mutated gene that can lead to cancer
Oncogene
