Tonicity
Pertains to a solution with a concentration of solutes the same as the concentration in the cell
What is isotonic?
Two phases of protein synthesis
What is transcription and translation?
The longest phase of the cell cycle is ?
What is intersphase?
Name the phases of mitosis
What are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase?
What is a tumor?
Pertains to a solution with a concentration of solutes higher than the concentration of solutes in the cell
What is hypertonic?
Where does protein synthesis take place?
What is on the ribosome?
In what phase does DNA replication occur?
What is the S (synthesis) phase of interphase?
Which mitotic phase do the chromosomes line up along the center of the cell?
What is metaphase?
What do you call a tumor that is contained and not likely to spread?
What is benign?
What will happen to a cell placed in a hypotonic solution?
What is swell?
Nucleotides consist of one of four types of?
What is a nitrogen base?
Which phase of the cell cycle is the resting phase when cells do not undergo division?
What is the Gap Zero phase?
What phase do two new daughter cells appear?
What is telophase?
Most cancers result from what?
What is environmental toxins, radiation exposure and viruses?
Most intravenous fluids will be what tonicity.
What is isotonic?
The process by which RNA makes a copy of DNA.
What is transcription?
What cell has a life span of about 4 weeks?
What is a skin/hair cell?
In which mitotic stage does the spindle form?
What is prophase?
Three possible treatments for cancer?
What is surgery, radiation therapy or chemotherapy?
A cell impermeable to glucose and sodium contains 10% glucose and 40% sodium on the inside and outside solution contains 40% sodium. Will the cell swell, shrink, or stay the same.
What is swell? The solution on the inside totals 50% solute and 40% on the outside. Water will move toward the higher concentration of solute, into the cell, causing the cell to swell.
What determines genetic code?
What is the sequence of nitrogenous bases in the DNA molecule?
What cells are amitotic, not able to replace and regenerate lost or damaged cells?
What are neurons?
When does the cleave furrow form as the cytoplasm starts to divide?
What is cytokinesis?
A malignant tumor that is growing rapidly and spreading to other sites in the body?
What is metastatic?
