Cellular Respiration
The organelle where cellular respiration primarily occurs
What is the chloroplast
The process in which a cell makes an exact copy of its DNA is called
What is replication
What does DNA stand for?
What is Deoxyribonucleic Acid
What is cancer?
Cancer is a disease where cells grow & divide uncontrollably.
What is the phase of the cell cycle where the cell grows and performs normal functions?
What is Interphase
This process is what cells use to generate energy without using O2
What is Fermentation
This happens during cytokinesis
The cytoplasm divides during cytokinesis to form 2 daughter cells.
What is the DNA molecule shaped like?
What is a twisted ladder
How does cancer start?
Cancer begins as a mutation in DNA which causes disruptions in the normal cell cycle.
What is the process where a cell divides to form two identical daughter cells?
What is Mitosis.
CO2 enters plants through the
What is the stomata (tiny opening on the underside of leaves)
At which stage of mitosis do the chromatids move to opposite ends of the cell?
What is Anaphase
What are the 4 nitrogen bases that make up DNA?
Thymine
Guanine
Cytosine
What is a mass of cancer cells called?
What is a tumor
What is the stage of mitosis where chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell?
What is Metaphase.
Most of the energy in glucose which is released during respiration takes place in the...
What is the mitochondria
What are chromosomes?
They are tightly coiled strands of DNA & protein
How do the nitrogen bases of DNA pair up?
Adenine always binds to Thymine
Guanine always binds to Cytosine
What is chemotherapy?
Chemotherapy is the use of drugs to kill or slow the growth of cancer cells
What is the stage of the cell cycle where the cytoplasm divides?
What is cytokinesis.
What are the products of photosynthesis and what are they used for?
What are sugars and oxygen- Sugars are used by the plants for food, the oxygen that is released is actually a waste product that is then used by other organisms.
What are the 3 processes of cell cycle?
What are:-
Stage 1- Interphase
Stage 2- Mitosis
Stage 3- Cytokinesis
What would be the complementary pair for a nitrogen base sequence of AGTCCATG
Apart from chemotherapy what is another way to treat cancer?
The 3 common ways to kill cancer are:
1- Surgery
2- Radiation
3- Drugs
How many cells are present when cytokinesis is complete and what are these cells caused and what happens to them after?
Every cell gives rise to 2 daughter cells which then restart the cycle all over again...or go into Interphase.
