Cell Cycle
100
This enzyme is responsible for separating the original DNA strand.
What is helicase?
100

This is where DNA replication occurs

What is the nucleus?

100
This is the point at which two chromatids are attached to each other in a chromosome.
What is a centromere?
100
In mitosis, if a parent cell has 22 chromosomes, each daughter cell will have this many chromosomes.
What is 22?
100

This is the purpose of the synthesis phase.

What is copy the DNA?

200
This enzyme is responsible for attaching free floating nucleotides to the DNA strands.
What is polymerase?
200
These are the monomers (building blocks) of DNA.
What are nucleotides?
200
This is the stage of mitosis where the chromatids pulled apart.
What is anaphase?
200
This phase of mitosis that is characterized by the arrangement of all chromosomes along the equator of the cell.
What is metaphase?
200

These are the phases of the cell cycle that make up Interphase

What is in the G1, S, and G2 phases

300

In DNA replication the original molecule is split and copied to form two _____ strands.

What is identical?

300

This is uncontrolled cell growth

What is cancer?

300
This is the stage of mitosis where the nucleus begins to reform and the cell begins to pull apart.
What is telophase?
300

During Anaphase, centromeres split and each _____________ is now a chromosome.

What is a chromatid?

300
Cells spend the most time in this phase.
What is interphase?
400
The enzyme helicase breaks this kind of bonds.
What are hydrogen bonds?
400

These parts of the cell cycle are not working properly and can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and division.

What are checkpoints?

400
This is the correct order for mitosis.
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase?
400

This is the purpose of growth 1 phase.

What is growth & carry out normal cell function?

400

This is the purpose of the cell cycle. The reason cells must divide.

What is growth and repair?

500

Since DNA made in the replication process results in 2 identical strands of DNA with each having 1 side being new and 1/2 being original we call the process…

What is semiconservative

500

Environmental factors that can trigger the damaged genes into action (at least 3 of 5)

What are 

  • Cigarette smoke

  • Air & Water pollution

  • UV radiation from sun

  • Viral infections

  • Carcinogens

500
This structure is formed during cytokinesis in a plant cell.
What is a cell plate?
500
This is the correct sequence of the cell cycle.
What is growth 1, synthesis, growth 2, mitosis, and cytokinesis?
500

There are 3 of these in the cell cycle to regulate timing. They fall at G1, G2, and M?

What are checkpoints?
