Mitosis
Cells
Genes
Cell Division
100
A group of cells that kept on dividing and have made a clump.
What is a tumour?
100
The step where chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
What is metaphase?
100
The skin outside the cell that controls what goes inside and outside of the cell.
What is cell membrane?
100
Mostly made of DNA.
What is chromosome?
100
The process where the DNA is copied, which makes sister chromatids, joined by a centromere.
What is DNA replication?
200
The time in a cells life where it checks if there are enough nutrients to support cell growth, if the DNA has replicated and is not damaged.
What is cell cycle checkpoints?
200
The step where chromatids are pulled to opposite sides of the cell.
What is anaphase?
200
A connection of tunnels that move materials made in the cell.
What is endoplasmic reticulum?
200
Gives instructions for what proteins to make and when to make them.
What is gene?
200
The step that finishes off cell division that happens after mitosis.
What is cytokinesis?
300
When a cell leaves the cell cycle because of something outside the cell. For example, getting hit, or touching toxic chemicals.
What is cell death?
300
Strands that come from centrosomes and help to move the chromatids.
What is spindle fibres?
300
Has materials and water that store and transport small molecules.
What is vacuole?
300
The process in looking at someone's genes for some disorders that the person might develop.
What is DNA screening?
300
Forms from vesicles that line up during cytokinesis for a plant cell.
What is cell plate?
400
The part of a cells life where it does its job, replicates DNA, and gets bigger.
What is interphase?
400
Chromosomes become less coiled and are harder to see. The division of one nucleus is complete.
What is telophase?
400
Makes ribosomes.
What is nucleolus?
400
A change in the DNA of an organism, which can change the protein is made.
What is mutation?
400
The movement of molecules from areas where there are higher concentrations to areas where there are lower concentrations.
What is diffusion?
500
A type of mutagens that can lead to cancer. Such as tobacco smoke, or asbestos.
What is carcinogens?
500
In prophase, this turns into chromosomes by getting closer together and thicker.
What is chromatin?
500
All living things are made of one or more cells. The cell is the basic unit for life. All cells from cells that already existed.
What is Cell Theory?
500
An organism that had its genes mixed with the genes from another organism.
What is transgenic organism?
500
The ratio that leads to cell division when the cell gets too big and the ratio gets too small.
What is Surface Area to Volume?
